CoPilot in Outlook

Copper Contributor

I am working with CoPilot trying to understand the use cases.  I see the "summary" feature and the "compose with CoPilot" when I start a new eamil.  I have not seen the "Catch up with CoPilot" feature.  What are the criteria for that to appear when I open outlook?

Hi @JThibeault,

"Catch up with CoPilot" is a feature designed to provide a meeting summary for participants who join a recorded or transcribed meeting at least 5 minutes after it begins.

To trigger this feature, certain conditions must be met:

  • The meeting needs to be transcribed for CoPilot to function, unless the organizer explicitly enables CoPilot without transcription.
  • Participants joining a recorded or transcribed meeting 5 minutes or more after its commencement will receive a notification prompting them to access a summary.

    CoPilot is not supported for meetings hosted outside the participant's organization.

Thank you, I know about that feature, but there is one in Outlook as well, or there is supposed to be.

Hi @JThibeault,

yes, there is also Copilot in Outlook.

You can ask Copilot with a prompt to help you schedule a meeting, and it will guide you through the scheduling process.  Copilot understands requests for meeting titles (E.g. Schedule a meeting to review the quarterly financial plan) and because it has access to the Microsoft Graph data it can suggest relevant people, files, and available times. Copilot can also draft an agenda, and you can do all these in a few clicks.

This really does not answer my question

Hi @JThibeault,

if you’re having trouble accessing the “Catch up with CoPilot” feature, it might be worth checking your version of Outlook and your Microsoft 365 channel.

CoPilot features are generally available or rolling out in the new Outlook for Windows, Outlook on the web, Outlook for Mac, and Outlook mobile. If you’re using the Semi-Annual Enterprise Channel, you might find that CoPilot features are not available in your apps. (But there is no specific documentation about "Catch up with CoPilot" feature availability)

The "Catch Me Up with Copilot" feature doesn't appear in Outlook for me either, under any circumstances. I am using the correct app and license, and I see the other features of Copilot in Outlook.

I noticed that the original video showcasing this feature was made Private by Microsoft... Perhaps it's an indication that it returned to testing? There is a mirror of the video available here though, for anyone interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NaW8UNYZeZc

I am also seeing the same thing.  I am in the correct version of outlook.  The video also has Focused vs Other in the inbox.  I do not see that option in mine.  Below is from the video that @b_adams Mentioned
