This problem has been occurring from past 2 weeks. Whenever I to go join any server in Minecraft bedrock windows 10 edition it shows You need to authenticate to Microsoft services. I have tried signing out and signing back which didn't work I even uninstalled and reinstalled the app which didn't work either.

    Hello AkashDinesh,
    I am Jaspreet Singh an independent advisor.
    Please open the xbox app on your system and logout from it. Restart (donot shutdown and start directly click on restart option ) your system and then open minecraft directly and login.
    Please let me know the results.

    This just started happening to me to.. Out of nowhere..
    I even played on my private server earlier today.

    Last time i had this problem it was because i didnt have the xbox app on my pc, installing that fixed it.
    But now it has started happening anyways.

    I have signed out, signed in, rebooted, uninstalled/reinstalled MC, rebooted, updated you name it..
    Nothing works...

    Minecraft works for me now all of a sudden. Im able to log in to my server.
    So i guess Microsoft had some problems with authentication.

    One thing is for sure, it was not a problem on my end.

    It will be very helpful if you can try a small free game that has login options so that his can be confirmed if the issue is with minecraft account or with the login services itself.

    On confirming that we can either get your account checked by Mojang here : https://help.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/requests/new

    or do a repair upgrade to your system to rule our any system file corruption.
