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 .

New Microsoft Loop workspace policy coming: Require Existing Microsoft 365 Group for New Loop workspaces

on

Microsoft is improving the security of Loop workspaces by giving admins the capability to connect new workspaces into existing Microsoft 365 Groups. This change will allow end-users to choose existing groups for managing new workspaces, providing a structured environment for collaboration. While this integration supports governance, it may challenge scenarios like automatic aggregation of Teams meeting content into a Loop workspace or creating short-term project workspaces. I recommend reading the following post on how aggregating teams meeting into loop workspaces works.

If organizations have separate workflows for creating and govern Microsoft 365 groups, now would be the time to look into them and see if they need to be updated to include Loop Workspaces (or allowing to add workspaces)

This update is currently planned to be complete by the end of April 2025 but keep an eye on Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 422725 for changes.
