How can I get the new feature "Insights"?

I'm a user of Office 365 Home and I joined the Insider plan. My Office version is 1806 now. But I can't see "insights" in the "Insert" tab, why ? How can I get it?

Hi Kevin

 

I'm not sure what's happening with your subscription and I don't have the option either in my ProPlus.

 

Here's some info from the Microsoft site: https://support.office.com/en-ie/article/insights-in-excel-3223aab8-f543-4fda-85ed-76bb0295ffc4 

 

It says it's still rolling out but that you as an Insider should get first offering if you are using the English version. If you're not using the English version then maybe that might be the cause.

 

Other than that, maybe someone else here knows something?

 

Best wishes

Damien

      Hi Kevin

      As Sergei and the website says, it'll be coming but I'm sure you won't have to wait long. Microsoft are efficient at pushing stuff out.

      Good luck with it. I hope it does the job for you when you get it!

      Cheers

        Hello,

         

        I'm having this same issue with a clients computer.


        They are using ProPlus version of office 365 on the latest version "Version 1809 (Build 10827.20150)"

         

        But when adding insights, it appears blank with no button to press.

         

        Any help would be appreciated.


        Thanks,
        Peter

    That functionality is distributed gradually. If you are on the build for which the functionality was announced that's not necessary you'll have it, maximum you may have that's that grey icon.

     

    The only way is to wait till it'll be activated for your pool.
