I am also affected by this (Copilot Pro & Microsoft 365 Family subscription).

In my opinion, this is a very important function of Copilot. You can find many similar posts on this topic and there are many contradictory statements and sources.

 

This source positively confirms the possibility:

German: Neueste Updates für Microsoft Copilot 

Hinweis: Die Features stehen Benutzern mit Copilot Pro und Copilot für Microsoft 365-Lizenzen zur Verfügung.

English (US): Latest updates for Microsoft Copilot 

Note: The features are available to users with Copilot Pro and Copilot for Microsoft 365 licenses.

 

Maybe it is, like the quite a few other sources, misleadingly written.

 

It would be very beneficial and much appreciated if MS would officially comment on the issue.

After all, the co-pilot himself is of the opinion that this feature will be available at the end of April 2024. Copilot primarily refers to this source:

Copilot in OneDrive: A New Wave of File Interaction
