Some OpenAI models degraded in Copilot

Resolved

On March 5th, 2026, between approximately 00:26 and 00:44 UTC, the Copilot service experienced a degradation of the GPT 3.5 Codex model due to an issue with our upstream provider. Users encountered elevated error rates when using GPT 3.5 Codex, impacting approximately 30% of requests. No other models were impacted.The issue was resolved by a mitigation put in place by our provider.

Investigating

The issues with our upstream model provider have been resolved, and gpt-5.3-codex is once again available in Copilot Chat and across IDE integrations. We will continue monitoring to ensure stability, but mitigation is complete.
