New Message Trace is very slow
Requesting the downloadable report has always required some time. If you want the "synchronous" results that get displayed immediately, make sure to use the Summary report option, not Enhanced summary report or Extended report. And also make sure to limit the date range to maximum 10 days past.
Hello Jason,
It is also possible to get message trace results promptly when done using PowerShell against Office 365.
We resort to this method to find out the required traces just in summary and not the detailed report of everything available.
This is just an alternate if you are comfortable using PowerShell with O365.
Hello Jason,
This should help you get started with the powershell access to message tracing from O365

Hello, Is it possible to run (2) simultaneous message traces by subject from powershell?
Is it possible to do a message trace by subject for more than one word?
Subject-based searches are not possible. The only way to make this work is to fetch all events, then filter them client-side.
