Claude Suffers Global Outage Across All Products Amid Microsoft 365 Disruption
On November 13, Anthropic's Claude suffered an across-the-board outage: the official status page showed elevated errors on claude.ai, Claude Code, and platform.claude.com, with the company confirming it was investigating authentication problems affecting user logins, marked as "investigating." Multiple users (including X users ThePeterMick and BLCNYY) reported being unable to use the service, with the web app showing "Claude is temporarily unavailable," saying the issue was being worked on and recommending a retry later. The r/ClaudeAI community opened a discussion thread to track the situation and said it would update once the incident was resolved.
Confirmed
- Anthropic's status page confirmed authentication-related errors on claude.ai, Claude Code, and platform.claude.com, with an official investigation underway
- Some users saw the "Claude is temporarily unavailable" downtime page on the web
- A separate ongoing issue: an upstream Microsoft 365 service incident raised error rates and slowed responses for Claude's Microsoft 365 connector; requests to access mail, SharePoint, Teams chats, and calendars via the connector may fail, and new connections may also be affected
Why it matters
- The authentication outage covers all of Claude's major entry points (web, Claude Code, developer platform), disrupting individual users and developers end to end
- Compounding it with the concurrent Microsoft service disruption highlights Claude's dependence on upstream third-party infrastructure; developers and teams relying on both Claude and Microsoft 365 saw workflows blocked at the same time
