If multiple users in your company are experiencing issues with Sway, such as being unable to connect to the server and timing out, it could be due to a temporary service issue. In such cases, users may experience intermittent delays or navigation errors when trying to access Sway. You can check the Service Health Dashboard to determine if your organization is affected by any ongoing service issues.
Additionally, if users are receiving "503" or "Server is busy" error messages, this may indicate throttling within the SharePoint service, which can affect Sway as well. Throttling is used to maintain optimal performance and reliability of the service.
It is advisable to wait and try accessing Sway again later, as service issues are often resolved by Microsoft promptly.
