Scheduled Task (Azure) failing

Two scheduled tasks failed this morning, both with the same error message, "Failed to export player profiles". These tasks have been running for months unchanged. Please see below for the summary info. Was this a temporary server outage issue? Is there anything I need to change or do? Thanks!

     {
         "TaskInstanceId": "EC9CB79AE966B592-167",
         "TaskIdentifier": {
             "Name": "Daily League A",
             "Id": "EC9CB79AE966B592"
         },
         "StartedAt": "2023-02-02T04:15:42.3532447Z",
         "CompletedAt": "2023-02-02T04:21:39.5538075Z",
         "Status": "Failed",
         "ErrorMessage": "Failed to export player profiles - Title \"CD7EB\", JobId = EC9CB79AE966B592-167",
         "ErrorWasFatal": true,
         "TotalPlayersInSegment": 0,
         "TotalPlayersProcessed": 0
     }

Edit: it looks like these tasks ran right in the middle of a server incident last night, as reported by https://status.playfab.com/. I'm going to assume that is the cause for now, and that the tasks will work tonight.

Edit 2: Today's tasks failed again also, so the issue is still ongoing. Awaiting resolution, thank you.

Is there a timeline for when this will be fixed? Critical game functionality has ceased to function.

I can confirm that the scheduled tasks are now operational.

Hopefully there are no more 5 day outages in the future. If my game relied more heavily on scheduled tasks, this would have been a nearly catastrophic outage. As it is, some of the multiplayer features were non functional, but the main game was still playable.
