Help us improve

If your organization has turned on this feature, you can decide to take part in the Microsoft Customer Experience Improvement Program (CEIP). When you participate, your Windows Phone will automatically send basic, anonymous information to Microsoft about how you use your programs and devices, the types and number of errors you encounter, and the speed of services. This information is combined with other CEIP data to help Microsoft solve problems and improve the products and features that customers use most often. Microsoft does not collect your name, address, or other contact information.

Upload Sign-in Logs

An error report is automatically generated whenever you can't sign in to Skype for Business. Normally you're asked if you want to send the troubleshooting information to Microsoft. To change this setting, go to More > Settings > Upload Sign-in Logs and choose Always or Never.
