GitHub: Incident with Copilot
Timeline of updates
- resolved
On March 11, 2024, between 06:30 UTC and 11:45 UTC the Copilot Chat service was degraded and customers may have encountered errors or timed out requests for chat interactions. On average, the error rate was 10% and peaked at 45% of requests to the service for short periods of time. This was due to a gap in handling an edge case for messages returned from the underlying language models. We mitigated the incident by applying a fix to the handling of the streaming response. We are working to update monitoring to reduce time to detection and increase resiliency to message format changes.
