What about Document Sets in SharePoint? Is it still advisable to use them given that they are turned off by default and cant be easily found in modern sites? thnx.
- DebWalther-SkyterraBrass Contributor
Agreed, are they even usable anymore? When will you guys delete all the site and site collection features that are no longer compatible with Modern (or at least label them)
Document sets still work and a number of our customers use them. They work mostly in modern look but it is annoying that modern SharePoint is a bizarre mix of old and new. Must be very disconcerting to new customers.

Will the auto-translation option also be available for SharePoint pages? What are the associated costs?

Are there any plans to update the classic SharePoint calendar or Events web part? It would be nice if you could use an Events web part with a different type of calendar (shared calendar, list in calendar view). This is a feature that is constantly requested at my org, and I can't believe we still have to use that classic calendar that is challenging to even find!

will autofill work with existing custom metadata columns that are taxonomy driven?
- ssquires
Microsoft
Thank you for the question, Annie! Yes, we are working on adding autofill support to managed metadata columns!
Also please don't remove the "Task outcome" column from SharePoint. It is so nice for use with Power Automate flows to show info without letting the user affect it.
Could you give a clarification on how or whether Copilot uses, or doesn't use both local library coloumns, managed metadata coloumns and finally also list items? Does Copilot look at list items?
- ssquires
Microsoft
Not yet, Tom - but it is something we are actively working to address (both file metadata and SharePoint list data)!
- DaneaGalbraithIron Contributor
Can autofill digest video content for output to text or video or image snippets?
- ssquires
Microsoft
No, it doesn't, Danea. Autofill currently works on primary file formats (the list of supported file types autofill supports is available here: Overview of autofill columns Microsoft Syntex - Microsoft Syntex | Microsoft Learn).
It's an interesting ask! Is your need to capture this info to library columns for subsequent search or a specific business automation? Thanks for the feedback.

How do you recommend creating good governance around using SharePoint Agents?
- Raffaele CamillettiCopper Contributor
Will it be possible to restrict the creation of agents with Copilot in SharePoint? Currently, anyone can create them, and an administrator can only limit sharing/publishing. Will there be an option to restrict creation without disassociating the Copilot for 365 license from users, which might be essential for using Copilot BizChat or other 'enterprise' agents? 🙂
- PrashanthSRCopper Contributor
Can you please share more details on what admin settings are available for managing the Agents, usage reports, agents created, etc? Is there an option available to disable access to create agents across the tenant?
