Subject: Feature Request – Enable Copilot to Retrieve Full Article Content from External URLs

 

Dear Copilot Support Team,

I am a frequent user of Microsoft Copilot and greatly appreciate its capabilities.

 

Currently, Copilot is unable to retrieve article content directly from external websites such as note.com and exblog.jp when a URL is provided.

 

Other AI services (ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok) can read full article content simply by providing a URL, without requiring the user to manually paste the entire text.

 

For long-form articles, manually copying and pasting the full content is extremely time‑consuming and impractical.

Therefore, I would like to request the following improvements:

• Enable Copilot to fetch and read full article content directly from URLs

• Add support for major blogging platforms such as note.com and exblog.jp

• Allow long articles to be analyzed without requiring manual text input

 

I believe this enhancement would significantly improve usability and bring Copilot in line with other leading AI tools.

 

Thank you very much for your consideration.

  • Hi, I understand the request, especially for long articles. Copilot’s ability to read a URL depends on the product surface, tenant settings, permissions, and whether the site allows access. For now, the most reliable workaround is to use Copilot in Edge where available, or paste/upload the article text. I’d also submit this through Microsoft feedback as a product improvement request.
