Two new updates to Microsoft 365 Copilot for Word: Smarter Creation and Researcher agent

What’s New in Microsoft 365 Copilot for Word Microsoft continues to evolve its Copilot capabilities in Word, bringing powerful new features that enhance productivity and streamline workflows. Two newly announced updates are rolling out this fall: First out of the gate is the integration of the Researcher Agent, allowing great content generation within Word itself. The second update is bringing more of the search and creation capabilities we have in Chat directly into Word.

Get-AssignedLineURI v4_0 available for download

Get-AssignedLineURI is still one of my more popular scripts, it has reached 5000 downloads by now.

This new release has a new switch which can be used to gather and compare information from AD, thanks to Hany Elkady for the request and examples. I find this handy when troubleshooting client integrations and certain errors regarding exchange integration or wrong lineURI compared to phone attribute.

I fixed a couple og bugs and added the flexibility of using monitordata and addata with the gridview functions. I also decided to change the color-scheme of the HTML output to a more modern look.

Other than that, the script seems to be working just fine, giving admins what they want/need, and no requests for enhancements has been made.

The script is available at the Technet Gallery.

As always, I appreciate your support and feedback :)
