Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention (DLP) will soon extend to support Microsoft 365 Copilot. DLP policies will be able to identify sensitive documents based on sensitivity labels and exclude processing for Copilot interactions in Microsoft 365 Copilot Business Chat. The preview does not support alerts, incident reports, and policy simulation. Audit records will be available at a later time after policy management is enabled for organizations. A Microsoft 365 Copilot license and a Microsoft 365 E5 license or equivalent are required to use this feature. #Copilot #Purview #Microsoft365 #MPVbuzz #DLP #SharePoint #OneDriveUse Copilot-generated notes in meetings!
Notetaking during meetings is an activity that works differently from team to team and from meeting to meeting. At least, this is my observation so far. In some teams, notetaking is seen as a collaboration task. A volunteer usually takes the meeting notes. In others, notetaking is seen as a personal task. Individuals are responsible for their notes, regardless of whether they understood the message or not. After experiencing both methods, I go for the first one. To me, taking notes is a collaboration task. Notes are the output of any meeting and a wonderful way to recap for those who could not attend. And people can still take their personal notes, if they want to. 🟣 Adoption Tips for AI-Generated Notes: Are there fears in your team about delegating meeting notes entirely to Copilot? That's ok. Make a gradual transition. Here's how: Start using both manual and automated notetaking systems. Keep on the notetaking tasks manually while turning on the Copilot-generated notes, too. Ensure your team can access both meeting notes versions, the manual and the Copilot generated. Over time and gradually, your team can control the accuracy of the notes. And hopefully, transition to fully Copilot-generated notes. 🟣 Current Challenges: This feature relies on the language setting of the meeting and works together with the transcription. The language setting must match the language spoken during the meeting. Currently, it is not possible to set up the language prior to a meeting. 🗝️ Microsoft, we have to talk: The meeting language setting is not saved per meeting - so far my understanding. The downside is that meeting organizers need to set it up - even for recurrence meetings - over and over again. It's frustrating. Here's my wish list: It would be so wonderful to configure the meeting language under meeting options. And even better, it would be awesome if AI would recognize the spoken language and set it automatically. 🟣 How to Turn on Copilot-Generated Notes in Meetings? You can turn on the notetaking feature before or during the meeting. ⬅️ Before: Go to Schedule a meeting in your calendar to add a private meeting. Notetaking with Copilot is not available either for channel or instant meetings. Turn on the toggle which is next to AI-generated notes in the meeting invite. The transcription will turn on automatically. ⬇️ During: In case you forgot to turn on the notetaking before the meeting. You can still turn it on during the meeting. Join your private meeting. Click on notes. Click on the stars and turn on the toggle. Does your team already use notetaking with Copilot? Drop your experiences in the comments below 👇.
Copilot agent not working on team when added as an app
We have created few agents, and it works as expected in copilot studio. The agent was published on teams and added as an app. It behaves differently on teams and does not refer to the knowledge source provided. Instead, it is showing generic web data (old LLMs probably). Not sure if we are missing any features in GCC tenants

Change Default for Copilot Automatic Room Rebooking Setting in Outlook?
My users with Microsoft 365 Copilot licenses have noticed a newer feature that automatically rebooks meetings with an alternate room if the selected room is unavailable. It appears that this setting is on by default and can be turned off on a per case basis when a new meeting event is being scheduled. Is there a way to turn it off by default and allow people to enable it when a new calendar item is being created instead? Here is what it looks like for me in Outlook. I can click on Edit from the new meeting window and turn it off for a single event. I haven't found a way to change that default behavior. Has anyone found a way to adjust this? Thank you! Brian
