Sharing your Copilot notebooks - Is being rolled out

on
Microsoft is rolling a new update to Copilot Notebooks that make collaboration even easier: the ability to share Copilot Notebooks with your colleagues.  Personally, I like Notebooks because they feel almost like small, personal agents I don’t have to configure. They give me a safe space to collect notes and documents and then work on them over time. With this update, that personal space can become a shared space for a selected group of  colleagues, without compromising security or permissions. I think it is also important to note that your chat and chat history within the Notebook stays private. The web rollout began in late October and will finish by December, while mobile access starts in early November and are related to the Microsoft 365 Roadmap ( ID 506851 )  You can also read more about the Copilot Notebooks experience on the Microsoft website here . If you like this update and want to stay informed about similar improvements, feel free to follow me on LinkedIn!

Automate your collection of CQM data in Skype for Business - Get-CqmAutomated.ps1 Released

on
My new script for automating the collection of CQM data, using the "Microsoft Call Quality Methodology Scorecard for Skype for Business Server" was released a couple of days ago.

It was announced last night at the "The Microsoft MVP Award Program Blog" with a solid description of how it is supposed to work, and how to set up the scheduled task in your own deployment.

I am aware the script has only been run in a "single" server environment, and I am look for a deployment with multiple monitor databases and/or mirrored databases to enhance my script to allow for collection from multiple databases, or selective databases.

CQM is getting more and more attention in the field, as it should be. I consider CQM a very important piece of the day to day maintenance of any deployment. How else can we know our deployment is working as it should be.

Here are a couple of links regarding the script:
