Over the last 7 days, Discord has answered our automated checks with 100.00% availability and a typical response time of ~23 ms. According to Discord's official status page, the most recent outage began 2026-08-04 18:49 UTC and lasted 1h 27m (severity: down). It was reported as "Messaging failures".

Discord carries voice, video, and text for gaming communities and increasingly for software projects and companies. Voice and messaging run on separate infrastructure, so calls can drop while chat is fine, and problems are frequently limited to one voice region.

What to do if Discord is down for just you
  • Check whether delivery is delayed rather than failed, since messages are queued and usually arrive once a backlog clears.
  • Test a second channel or recipient domain, because incidents are often limited to one carrier, region, or mailbox provider.
  • Confirm you have not hit a rate or spend limit, which returns the same errors as an outage.
  • Verify your webhook endpoint is still responding, as a receiving failure on your side mimics a provider problem.
