Copilot in Outlook: Meeting Preparation Is About to Get Smarter

on
Currently, the “Prepare for meetings with Copilot” feature requires at least three participants. Starting mid-October, this is changing. Copilot will soon support all meetings, including 1:1s. The rollout will begin in mid-October and is expected to complete by November 2025 according to the message center. With this update, you’ll also see new real-time insights in the Outlook meeting event form, summarizing relevant context, tasks, documents, and other resources. Plus, you’ll be able to chat with Copilot to confirm action items or better understand meeting goals. The more context Copilot has, the better it works. Meeting series with related emails, shared documents, Teams chats, and previous Copilot transcriptions deliver the richest experience. If your organization limits Copilot to in-meeting use only and deletes content afterward, you’ll miss out on much of this value. Here is a relevant " how to " guide for users.

Issue with enable-csuer when the user first name contain spaces

on
I have run into an issue with the set-csuser command in a few deployments. The error occurs when I try to use set-csuser with the "-sipaddresstype firstlastname" switch.


If I changed the -sipaddresstype from "firstlastname" to "emailaddress", I was able to use the script to enable the same user.

It turned out this user had two first names (with a space between) in the fname property in AD (fname="First Name"). If I removed one of them (fname="First"), or used a hyphen between them (fname="First-Name"), the script started working again.
