Abstract;The beam commissioning of SPring-8 was started since 13 March 1997 and was successfully completed with the beam performance far beyond the target specification. The user operation was started since October 1997. Presently 18 beamlines were operated in the user service mode, 9 beam lines are in commissioning mode and 12 beam lines are under construction. The two new transport lines of L3 and L4(New SUBARU line) were installed in the linac, and the service of 1GeV electron beam was started as a parasite mode of the linac since the autumn of 1998. In this conference, the status of the SPring-8 accelerator facility is reported. (author abst.)
