- PRAVARCopper ContributorAs an Admin, how can we troubleshoot and assist the users when they use the same prompt and receive different response based on their access to the datasets. How can we assist and help them to point out the dataset for which they dont have access that provided them the different response than the other user?

The access to data would be only what that user of Copilot has access to. Copilot does not have and cannot grant access to files that the user in that session cannot access.
- PRAVARCopper ContributorUnderstood. How do we assist in case there is a complaint that the user mentions that he/she has access to same datasets similar to other user. However he/she gets different response from the same prompt?
- Swapnil_ChavanCopper ContributorWhat permissions are required for an admin to deploy M365 Copilot such as Global admin?
- GabeHoIron ContributorThe Global admin or Licensing admin can assign out Copilot for Microsoft 365 licenses to users.
- As of now it is only Global Admni
- Kelly_LaForest_CDWBrass ContributorWill an organization using Okta federated with Entra ID be able to use Copilot for Microsoft 365? I assume the answer is yes, correct?
- GabeHoIron ContributorYes, should not be a problem.
- Yes it is
- Someone449Brass ContributorWill you ever allow Copilot to be FULLY integrated into the Outlook for Windows client rather than just the "New" (and generally disliked) Outlook?
- I would love that as the New Outlook is missing many key features of day-to-day use.
- FabioPassarelliCopper ContributorBased on MS roadmap (https://www.microsoft.com/en-ww/microsoft-365/roadmap?filters=&searchterms=copilot%2Coutlook), it should be there by March, let's see 🙂
- GabeHoIron ContributorHey Cody, it's on it's way. Here's the roadmap items https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/roadmap?filters=Microsoft%20Copilot%20for%20Microsoft%20365&searchterms=outlook
- Martha_Perez4444Copper ContributorCan I configure all this on my own as I belong to a university based MS 365 - and let the university be the admin and set up all the security, etc.

You can use the personal Copilot experiences either with or without a Microsoft account. For work experiences with additional data protections and Microsoft Graph integration, your admin would need to configure everything. We just published a video on Microsoft Mechanics on Monday covering the different experiences, types of accounts used in each, and more here: https://youtu.be/N6yiyXRNCJY?si=8-cHXeMxP_Y-KP2M
- Bipin-prakashBrass ContributorAs long as you are authorized and have the necessary roles on your university tenant. Applying Copilot license is slightly different for A3/A5 licenses https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365-copilot/microsoft-365-copilot-enable-users.
- John Felix PañaCopper Contributorare these videos be available still later on?
- GabeHoIron ContributorYes they will be available on the session pages here.
- ShannonDuffyBrass ContributorWhen can we expect to see Copilot controls show up in the Integrated Apps under settings?
- PRAVARCopper ContributorIs there any tool available today to validate the tenant readiness for Copilot for M365 enablement?
- GabeHoIron ContributorI'd recommend checking out the Copilot dashboard. We have a session on it tomorrow https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/copilot-for-microsoft-365/measuring-usage-adoption-and-the-impact-of-microsoft-copilot/ec-p/4051091
- PRAVARCopper ContributorThanks. The description talks about usage, adoption and impact. Looking for a tool that provides some kind of insights about readiness. Trust this session provides what Im looking for.
- Bipin-prakashBrass ContributorIn case you did not catch it, https://aka.ms/copilot/setupguide
- Kelly_LaForest_CDWBrass ContributorThank you for sharing the direct link to the Copilot Setup Guide Bipin! Curious - I don't see the "Get ready for Microsoft Copilot for Microsoft 365" Setup guide in my tenant (all users M365 E5 licenses) in the MAC Setup guide section. Perhaps do I need to have purchased a minimum of one Copilot M365 license for that guide to appear?
- Mmmmm2045Copper ContributorDo we need to use Intune to control the rollout of update channels to users? Can't it be done through config.office.com?
- GabeHoIron ContributorIt can! We're just covering one of the ways, which is through Intune. Check out this article https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/deployoffice/updates/change-channel-for-copilot

Yes, there are also ways to reinvoke the ClicktoRun installer with an updated ODT configuration file. You don't have to use policies, but they tend to be the simplest way.
- Mmmmm2045Copper ContributorThanks all!
- StevenEGodwinCopper ContributorIs there an indication of when Copilot will be available on the CDX please?
