Data Lifecycle Management: Separate Copilot retention policies from Teams chats

In a previous post I mentioned how Microsoft is adding the capability to use Purview Data Loss Prevention on Copilot to block certain information from surfacing for the user. Now, Microsoft is adding Copilot to it's retention policy controls, and starting mid-February, public preview tenants can start exploringthis new feature. Admins will be able to create separate retention policies for Microsoft Teams chats and Microsoft 365 Copilot interactions, and allows for a more tailored data management. The feature will of course require that the targeted users have Microsoft 365 Copilot license.  According to the message center, the public preview will be during February, and we can hope for a general release sometime in March. The feature will be available by default, but policies will have to be set up.

A simplified way to handle your notifications

Notifications can be overwhelming in a large organization. And I am pleased to see Microsoft's roadmap have an item that is supposed to be rolling out soon, called: Microsoft Teams: Simplified Global Notification Settings (Roadmap ID 65636

It promises an easier way to manage all your notifications, globally in Teams. There was just a post in the Admin Center, explaining a slight delay in the roll-out of this feature, but you can get a sneak-peak over at the techcommunity.
