Gmail is practically unusable at the moment. It's been going on for a while too, so I'm interested in the post mortem for this. I'm in Sydney, Australia.
Plain HTML GMail seems to be working as well as ever here in India...
Gmail and Google Drive Outage

Do you have a signature image or other attachment? It sends instantly without, fails with [on the desktop web client]. The google drive server they save our stuff on is giving a 503.
My email drafts can't even save. A popup saying "Oops, something went wrong. Recent changes may not have been saved." No images either!
Hmm odd. I had a draft from this morning (I took a photo on my phone, attached, then went to desktop later to type the rest up). It would not send and kept popping up that error you mentioned while typing. As soon as I deleted the attachment, I could send it. New emails with nothing attached work fine too in all 3 accounts.

#13That would explain why my ETLs are failing at 3am in the morning !!!
Your ETL processes write to google drive or are dependent on email?
Earnest question, don't mean to sound derisive.
Re: Gmail and Google Drive Outage
#14I wonder how much money this kind of outages can cost to all affected companies and institutions

#15I'm so used to Gmail/Gsuite working that i assumed the problem was with my internet and restarted the router a couple of times.

#16Gmail works but I can't send any emails - so frustrating.

I'm assuming some kind of workflow which uses email notifications, and only goes to the next step if the email notification succeeds..?

#18Youtube is also affected. You can upload files but they won't process.
Re: Gmail and Google Drive Outage
#19Incident says it's affecting anything that uses Cloud Storage, which I'm guessing is most things.
