Sharing your Copilot notebooks - Is being rolled out

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!

Custom Emojis and Reactions in Microsoft Teams

Here is another post on a topic that isn't exactly new, but some organizations might not realize that as early ass July 2024, Microsoft released a new feature in Microsoft Teams that allows users to add their own custom emojis and reactions. These custom gifs are then available to everyone in the tenant. Up to 5,000 custom emojis can be added per tenant, and was enabled by default.

If your organization prefer to manage this feature, admins can manage this feature through the Teams Admin Center with controls to turn the feature on or off, set user permissions for creating new emojis, and set user permissions for deleting emojis. 


For end user who wants to use the feature, custom emojis and reactions is available in the emoji and reaction menus under the Custom category. Users with upload permissions can add new content via the plus (+) button, while those with delete permissions can right-click any custom emoji to remove it. Note that it may take up to 24 hours for deleted emojis to be removed for all users.
