Copilot in Outlook: Prioritize my inbox

Microsoft is releasing a new feature for Copilot in Outlook: "Prioritize my inbox by Copilot". The feature can go through your inbox and analyse the content for you. it will then mark them as high and low priority and help you focus on the tasks that are important to you. When the feature rolls out, it will be implemented as an opt-in feature for users, and it will be a "limited seating" until there is enough capacity for all within the organization. When available and enabled, there will be ways to tell Copilot what is important to you. You can read more about this on the support pages for the feature. A couple of notes: It will only prioritize in your main inbox (Not subfolders) It will not work on shared mailboxes or groups This feature is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 411302  and will start rolling out in April 2025

Spotlight an individual video participant for all attendees in a Teams meeting

I think I missed this message in the Admin Center, but it has already been rolled out to our company's production tenant. This is a feature allowing you to set the spotlight on a video feed, and making sure this is "pinned" for all attendees. 

In Skype for Business, I believe this was called pinning a video. but pinning in Teams is a single user's ability's to lock on one of the participants. The spotlight feature will lock the feed for everyone. 

Right click on any feed and select "spotlight" in order to focus on that user. You can also easily identify if you have been spotlighted by the header message.
