    You're right, currently SharePoint Copilot chat functionality doesn't directly access information from SharePoint pages and news posts. While there's no official announcement on a specific date, there is some discussion about including this functionality in the future.

    Here's what we know:

    • There's user interest in searching SharePoint content through Copilot chat, as evidenced by online discussions [Microsoft 365 Copilot and sharepoint page content].
    • Microsoft is actively developing Copilot, and one of their goals is to make it a more comprehensive information hub within Microsoft 365.

    While we can't say for sure when SharePoint page and news content will be searchable through Copilot chat, it's a good idea to keep an eye on Microsoft announcements. They might reveal new features in future updates.
