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!

OneDrive makes it easier to find relevant files

on

Microsoft OneDrive is getting a facelift these days, and two of the new features I am excited about are the way OneDrive will make it easier to find relevant documents in connection to meetings or your contacts. These are listed as two separate features, but I think they should be mentioned together. 

The meeting feature has started rolling out in preview, but should be rolling out to standard release at the end of August and hopefully be available to all by the end of October.

The "browse by people" feature will be rolling out separately, but over a similar timeframe.
Please note that a user will only see documents otherwise available to them. A "User A" will not see documents from "User B" unless they have already been shared with "User A". Either directly or through a library available to "User A"

Another way to find documents in the future, will be just by looking at a User's contact card. "Item insights" is rolling out in August, and will start showing documents "User A" and "User B" are collaborating on. By looking at the contact card of "User A", "User B" can identify which documents "User A" has updated or added notes to. The Insight feature can be turned on/of by following the steps in the official documentation. This feature is also rolling out in August to most organizations.
