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 .

Two upcoming Viva and Copilot updates

on

Microsoft Viva Pulse will be in included with Microsoft 365 Copilot Subscription

This feature previously only allowed users with a Viva Pulse premium license could create and send Pulse requests using out-of-the-box content and templates provided by their tenant’s Pulse administrators. But with this change, users with either a Pulse license or a Microsoft 365 Copilot license can now create and send Pulse requests.
Responding to Pulse requests does not require a license, though a premium license is needed for full access to research-backed templates and customization capabilities.

This is a feature that allows leaders to send brief surveys to gather real-time feedback on Copilot implementation, helping to quickly identify and address challenges. 

The rollout will occur automatically with features enabled by default, requiring no admin action before the rollout. For more information on Viva Pulse capabilities, visit Microsoft Learn. 

For more details, refer to Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 407706.

Microsoft 365 Copilot to Access Viva Engage Content

Microsoft 365 Copilot will soon be able to access question posts in Microsoft Viva Engage public communities, including Answers. This enhancement will enable Copilot to provide more relevant responses to users' inquiries on both web and iOS/Android platforms. Note that a Microsoft 365 Copilot license is required to use this feature. The feature will be on by default.

According to the Roadmap ID 408166, this feature should start rolling out any day now and be complete by the end of January 2025.
