We're seeing many customers in the APAC region unable to access Google Drive and related Workspace services this afternoon. The issue appears intermittent: some users can still open files, while others receive errors or find features such as sharing and spellcheck disabled. Reports are coming from Australia and New Zealand, but Google's status page initially showed nothing. Is anyone else seeing the same disruption?

Reports are coming from multiple locations in Australia, including New South Wales, as well as schools and organizations across New Zealand. It looks like a regional Google service outage rather than an issue isolated to one customer.
Google has now acknowledged the incident on its official Workspace status portal. It appears to be affecting Drive and related services across parts of Australia and New Zealand, with access varying between users.
We’re seeing the same thing with several clients. Some can access Drive while others can’t, and features like sharing may hang or report that they’re temporarily unavailable. The problem is also affecting personal accounts, not just paid Workspace tenants.
