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 .

Best practice configurations dashboard in Teams

For me, this is a tale as old as time, at least as long as I have been working with real-time media. Large organizations typically have complex networks with switches, routers, and firewalls. These networks can be challenging to troubleshoot when issues arise.

There are various reasons for failures, and sometimes resolving one issue leads to the emergence of another. Microsoft aims to help administrators in understanding these issues better by collecting end-user diagnostics and presenting them in a new tool called the "Best Practice Configuration Dashboard."

In my opinion, this tool will not solve all your problems, and you will still need to identify where in the network the issues may lie. However, it will provide a better understanding of some of the most basic issues. The Dashboard currently offers insights into client versioning (suggesting updates), explains which ports are being blocked for end-users (causing failures or reduced quality and functionality), and detects if VPNs are in use, suggesting split tunneling where appropriate.

This feature is mentioned in Roadmap ID 421185 and is expected to roll out at the end of this month and onward.
