So starting on Monday, all our users were unable to add attachments to Group Calendar events via the Office 365 Portal. Before this, we never had a problem. Office 365 support has confirmed this is a system wide issue, but when pressed about a potential resolution time the support analyst just stated " This is a current limitation of Outlook online Platform". Considering the disruption this is having on our business I don't consider that an acceptable answer.
We had to use the Web Portal to initiate these group events because users were having about 50% of them flat out not go through when initiated via the desktop outlook client.

SolutionWhile someone from Microsoft may see this and intervene, usually you'd follow this up directly via the support request. See this response for details on this, though I appreciate you just want the issue fixed as soon as possible!
How can I escalate issues in Office 365?

Just to follow up on this, I've asked that exact question and not received a response yet. Considering the issue at hand I am a little frustrated by the complete lack of communication.

I am initiating a Calendar event on a group Calendar (I can tell because the group is automatically invited). When you try to attach a document from your desktop or attempt to drag and drop, the following error always occurs - The following files could not be attached:"File Name". Please Try again later.
No error occurs if you initiate the request from a personal calendar or attach a link from a Sharepoint Site or One Drive. The point of doing all the work in the group Calendar was to keep all the invites from Employee's personal Calendar as we are utilizing the group calendar as an informal Dispatch Board.
This issue has been confirmed by the support tech I initiated the request with. I can give you the case number if you want it.
