When will Copilot be available for those with Office 365 government licenses?
- Are we going to get a manual or step by step overview on how to start using Pages? This would greatly support our efforts utilizing the tool and integrating our work flows and processes faster.
- KevinSherman
Microsoft
You can find a simple explanation for how to use Pages here: Announcing Copilot Pages for multiplayer collaboration, and we will continue to look for ways to add more content on this topic in the future.
- Can CoPilot use the transcript of a meeting where a business process is described by the meeting participants, take that information and use an existing branded template to create documentation for that business process? I'm hoping that it can accomplish this task rather than just summarize the content of the meeting.
- You sure can! All you have to do is open the template and prompt within the Word doc, including the correct styles within your prompt and make sure you are clear about the expectations, especially regarding the type of content you are trying to create.
- Will you provide Viva courses about how to use M365 Copilot for free?
- sebastienlevertThe Microsoft Copilot Academy is now available in Viva Learning: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/viva/learning/academy-copilot
- Also see this blog post on this new offering: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/viva-learning-blog/microsoft-copilot-academy-now-available-to-all-microsoft-365/ba-p/4229957
- are you going to enhance Copilot reporting so admins and leaders can better understand utilization.
- sebastienlevertYes! We are working on this. You can have a look at the Microsoft 365 Roadmap: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/roadmap?filters=&searchterms=396562
- How do we quantify AI results given varied user outcomes, and how can we shift from the old-fashioned training to team collaboration and knowledge sharing sessions with AI for efficiency to boost adoption rates and balance productivity gains? Does anyone have any creative ways to TEACH people how to use Copilot?
- There are a ton of great Copilot training and adoption resources for various audiences. I recommend starting at https://adoption.microsoft.com/en-us/copilot/. The scenario library can be particularly helpful and is different from traditional training options. I would also check out Copilot Academy which is now available through Viva Learning to anyone with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/viva-learning-blog/microsoft-copilot-academy-now-available-to-all-microsoft-365/ba-p/4229957. You might some other creative inspiration from WorkLab: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/worklab/?msockid=30964f9c476f64fe0d035da946fc6589
- Thank you, Allie. I appreciate the resources and information, and although I find them very helpful, they are not new to me. Is there a community, or a place where people are working/talking about training for Copilot? If not, is Microsoft planning on offering a collaboration space for TRAINING specifically?
- Hi Melissa - I'm Kate and I'm the founder of MVM Strategies. We help companies learn how to use Copilot through pilots with their teams around specific scenarios. Since the product is rapidly changing, our tests constantly change and we rely on group labs to help us all learn together, specific for each company scenario. It's worked, and it's more fun to experiment in a group setting.
- Thank you, Kate. That sounds amazing, and would like to discuss further. Are you on Linkedin?
What is the retention period? DO we have audio support? Do we have multilingual support?
- Can you let us know what specifically you are referring to for a retention period? the chat feature? another feature? For language support you can follow our supported language page here : https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/supported-languages-for-microsoft-copilot-94518d61-644b-4118-9492-617eea4801d8
- retention period i'm asking respective to chats involved with copilot..
- DarrelMillerCurrently there is no support for audio support in M365 Copilot. Copilot does have multi-language support https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/supported-languages-for-microsoft-copilot-94518d61-644b-4118-9492-617eea4801d8 Support for building Copilot Agents with multiple language support is currently rolling out.
- What is the current state of copilot integration in PowerBI (Database question and answering) Is the roadmap based on DAX expression and REST APIs?
- sebastienlevertIf REST APIs are available, using API plugins will give you a powerful solution to interface with databases / PowerBI. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365-copilot/extensibility/overview-api-plugins
- Will you expand the type of content Copilot Studio bots can draw on ? Currently its Word, PPT, PDF documents in Sharepoint site plus Modern UI pages (though its unclear if this includes all pages). Will other file types be added such as Excel and OneNote and will Teams Chat/Discussions be added as a source ?
- DarrelMillerThe work to enable access to Teams messages from Copilot Agents is currently in progress. M365 Copilot can already use Excel files as a source of information.
- How can we identify if Wave 2 has reached our tenant? Currently my users have reported not having the new Excel advanced formula features with Python.
- DavidM
