Title: Admins may be unable to track open email counts in the Microsoft 365 admin center organizational messages
User impact: Admins may be unable to track open email counts in the Microsoft 365 admin center organizational messages.
Current status: We’ve updated our public documentation to reflect that admins will be able to view the open counts of any Organizational message emails sent before the disablement; however, the open counts of any Organizational message emails sent after the disablement will be unavailable to admins. We anticipate that the in-app banner within Organizational Messages experiences (under Reports in Microsoft 365 admin center) to notify admins of this change, will be reflected by our next scheduled update.
Scope of impact: Any admin attempting to view open counts for their emails sent with Organizational messages in the Microsoft 365 admin center may be impacted. This information may be updated as our investigation continues.
