If Copilot in Outlook is able to analyze attached file?
I've learned Outlook’s Copilot is able to summarize the upcoming meetings, with related emails and attached files. But after testing, it seems fail to read attached file.
If it's limited in language or else?

While it does not seem to be able to do so from Outlook, using the Copilot for M365 chat, seemed to be able to retrieve the email, scan the attachment and summarize it.
Not sure that helps...
Best,
bp - MWals1775Copper ContributorThis would be a very helpful feature for us too, any updates on this? The Sales Copilot app in Outlook does not seem to be able to read attachments content. You can save the attachment in your OneDrive and access it in the Copilot chat though https://www.microsoft365.com/chat
