  • I do not have the Follow button. Is this a future capability in Copilot in Teams or part of a Teams Premium license?

      I'm missing that as well, not in desktop or browser version of Outlook. Using the new Outlook app, have a Copilot for M365 and an E5 license.

        Yana, I'm licensed for Copilot for M365, and use it inside the new Outlook to summarize threads, but do NOT have an option to RSVP with "Follow" as shown in the videos, just the regular Yes/Maybe/No. I also didn't see anything specifically related to following meetings in the M365 Roadmap.

    Is the Teams example part of Copilot, or do you also need "Teams Premium"?

      What's shown here does not require Teams Premium as well.

    I've noticed that when searching in Chat, it will not find a file if you as "please find x file" but will find it if you just say "x file." What is the best way to prompt for files?

      If you have the exact file name, it's helpful to put it in quotes. If you don't recall the exact file name, I agree with Rajesh that providing context about the file and should help the copilot find it. Generally, copilot should have consistent behavior between "x file" and "please find x file". Thanks for calling out that you are running into this issue. I will add this type of behavior to our test set so that we can improve the copilot in the future.

      You can try adding the name of the person who shared, medium in which it is shared like chat, email or from Sharepoint, if you remember the date you can mention that too or if it has any keyword like project name or customer name you can add that too. Basically play around the prompts until you are able to get the expected output.
  • Is there a way to control just the transcript through purview compliance content retention feature? I would like to delete it after one day, finding a middle ground between copilot without transcript (that can only be invoked when in meeting, therefore if someone forgets they are done for) and copilot with transcript, that presents a bit of a compliance headache for us (since we do not allow meeting recordings)? Ideally, we could use the copilot with no transcript for longer, ie hide the transcript from user but allow copliot prompts after the meeting ends.
  • why is the same prompt in MS Teams "recap the meeting" generating a lot better response when clicked from suggested prompts vs user typing that in? this behavior is very consistent

    Will we have the option for users to vote for the most useful prompts in Copilot Lab?

      Thank you for your feedback, we have heard similar requests! The more information you can provide on this will help our dev team.

        Sure! Here are some reasons why I think this feature would be valuable: Community Engagement: Allowing users to vote on prompts encourages community engagement. It empowers users to express their preferences and contribute to the improvement of Copilot Lab. Quality Control: Voting enables users to highlight high-quality prompts. It helps filter out less useful or outdated content, ensuring that the most relevant and accurate prompts rise to the top. Feedback Loop: By voting, users can provide direct feedback to Microsoft. It serves as a feedback loop, allowing the dev team to prioritize and refine prompts based on user preferences. Discoverability: Prompts with more votes would be easily discoverable by other users, making it easier to find valuable content. My suggestion to implement this mechanism is the following: - Add a voting mechanism (thumbs up/down or star ratings) next to each prompt. - Allow users to vote anonymously. - Display the total votes for each prompt. Thank you for taking this feedback! If you need any further details or have additional questions, feel free to reach out.
