Cannot upload or reference supported file using Copilot Pro and Microsoft 365 personal

Hello everyone,

I have generated a Word document using Copilot and saved it to my personal OneDrive.

Subsequently, I attempted to create a PowerPoint presentation using this document.

However, I noticed that there is no option to upload a Word file or reference a file through the use of / or copy the link from my personal OneDrive, similar to what is shown in this link on Microsoft Support https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/office/create-a-new-presentation-3222ee03-f5a4-4d27-8642-9c387ab4854d

Is this option exclusively available for Microsoft 365 Copilot users due to Microsoft Graph integration?

      Hello Ana, unfortunately, reference the file option is only usable for now if you are using Microsoft 365 Copilot.

        The answer from Microsoft Copilot that this feature will be available by the end of April 2024 (Copilot Pro within Microsoft Family Abo).

         

        Please ask the copilot himself and hope for a similar answer. :stareyes:

    I am having the same issue, I have no "reference a file" button in Word, CoPilot, Powerpoint, or Word online. I was online with Microsoft help for hours and the agent did not know anything about how to fix it and sent me to this forum, where there is also no help to fix it.

      Hello Jenni, thank you for your answer, reading the documentation I found out, that is not available for Copilot Pro and Microsoft 365 Personal-Family users, only for Microsoft 365 Copilot users, which is very unfortunate.

        Aha! Thank you! Now I can stop trying to fix it. Do you remember which documentation says this?
