Thank you for the insight. Have you tested this to confirm that is the behavior with M365 Copilot?

I tested this behavior today and found it to be true. There was a file on a private channel that I'm an owner of. Copilot couldn't find it, even when I fed it a direct link to the file. I had to share it to all users on my tenant first and then it instantly knew about the file. Now to find away around this limitation! It has to read from everything I have access to on our tenant to be even 20% as useful as it could be.
- Chris_FerraroJan 22, 2024Steel ContributorThanks all for the insight. What our concern is users who may have had anyone in the org link either because it had been the default setting or used it to save typing a long list of specific users (yes they should work in a team or SharePoint site to make easier) and created the anyone in the link but do not want anyone in the org accessing it.
