M365 Monthly Channel update didn’t drop with Patch Tuesday?

Did MS change the cadence in which they release M365 updates starting this Patch Tuesday?

This is the first time a monthly enterprise channel release hasn’t aligned with Patch Tuesday, to my recollection. Maybe they’re just behind schedule?

I checked many times yesterday and no update, but this morning I do have one. 2604 build 19929.20164

Showing up on the release history and we also received it. Looks fine to me. I'm guessing there may be CDN weirdness, or you have another config issue we can't see.

Yep, I’m seeing it now in the release history, thanks. It wasn’t there when I posted this earlier. Looks like I should’ve been a bit more patient.

M365 updates are staggered in bands not everyone getting them on Tuesday.

Hell we don't even get all of our patches in the same tenant at the same time.

As others have mentioned, the update did go out, albeit a little later than usual.
For reference, you can check out clients.config.office.net/releases/v1.0/OfficeReleases, search for MonthlyEnterprise, and find the AvailabilityDate for the latest releaeas.

Thanks for that! I have typically referred directly to the MS Learn article on 365 update history to confirm latest version. It threw me off when I didn’t see the latest release in there.

Interesting. Maybe they haven’t gotten around to updating the Update History article yet, as that’s where I was checking.
