Creating Work Instructions/Process from a video with Copilot
I'm looking to document a process in the most efficient way possible. Has anyone been able to use Copilot to interpret a video from Teams or a screen recording and have it create accurate work instructions? Would like to save time and avoid manually typing work instructions by potentially using Copilot to speed up this process. Any tutorials would be much appreciated.
Teams meeting that I created will not let me join
I have created several video meetings within Teams. When I click on the invitation link within my Outlook calendar or the "join" button I am brought to Teams. I confirm that my camera is on and that I am going to use my computer audio. When I click the "join" button I get the message - "when the meeting starts, we’ll let people know you’re waiting”. Mu invited guest get the same message and are waiting on their end as well. I created the meeting. I would assume that I could join the meeting and that I would be notified when they are queued up to be admitted to the meeting. Anyone have an idea what is going on here?
We need help solving a critical integration gap between Microsoft 365 Copilot and Salesforce.
The challenge: We want Copilot to access Salesforce data (including custom objects) while honoring each user’s Salesforce permissions—profiles, field‑level security, and sharing rules. Current out‑of‑box connectors don’t support this. Using an all‑access integration account is a compliance risk. Why it matters: Copilot is only valuable if answers are both accurate and secure. If a user sees data in Copilot they shouldn’t in Salesforce, that’s a governance nightmare. What we’re looking for: ✅ Support for custom objects & fields ✅ Enforcement of Salesforce profiles, FLS, and sharing ✅ Delegated user authentication (Entra ID ↔ Salesforce) ✅ Works with Microsoft 365 Copilot grounding Questions: - Has anyone implemented this successfully? - Is there a Microsoft or Salesforce roadmap for delegated auth in Copilot connectors? - Do you know a partner or expert who can build this securely? Let’s make Copilot + Salesforce both powerful and compliant.Issue with Deep Link to Meeting Side Panel in Microsoft Teams
Dear Team, I hope this message finds you well. We are currently experiencing an issue with the deep link to the meeting side panel in Microsoft Teams. Despite following the documentation provided at the link below, the functionality is not working as expected: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-gb/microsoftteams/platform/concepts/build-and-test/deep-link-workflow?tabs=teamsjs-v2#deep-link-to-meeting-side-panel When attempting to use the deep link, we encounter the following issue: Instead of opening our custom application in the side panel, the meeting window opens with the chat displayed on the right-hand side. And in the background, I am getting the below error. We would appreciate your assistance in resolving this matter, as the deep link is a critical component for our application integration within Microsoft Teams. Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue. Best regards, Sukesh PK
Meeting Agenda permissions sometimes wok
Once a week or so I create a number of internal Teams meetings generally with the same handful of individuals. Before I send it, I add a few agenda items. Unfortunately, at least half of the time, I am the only one with permissions (come meeting time someone may point it out). Having to go through, reopen each meeting, go through Shared Locations to open the loop's web page, clicking on Share, then Loop Component, then Settings, then People you choose, and then reentering the same attendees is very time consuming. I believe I am creating the meetings the same way each time, but I can't figure out why permissions are set sometimes and not others. Am I doing something wrong? Any ideas other than a reoccurring meeting?
Green Blocky Glitch on Shared Screen in New Teams Meeting
I have a user on New Teams that repeatedly has trouble with screens being shared in meetings by other people showing up as a Green Blocky mess on her end. So far we have cleared cache, uninstalled and reinstalled New Teams, updated graphics drivers, tested her internet connection (measured at 300Mbps down by 35Mbps Up and she is the only user on it) performed normal system maintenance (SFC, D.I.S.M, CHKDSK), and restarts galore. No luck. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.Side-panel Teams meeting app becomes unusable but stays open/visible when user joins a breakout room
I am working with a side-panel Teams meeting app. A customer noticed behavior that I have been able to replicate but have not found an explanation for, or a way to prevent. Issue summary When a user has a side panel app open, and the user is pushed into a Teams meeting breakout room, the side panel app remains open/visible but the app content disappears (making the app unusable). Replicating this behavior 1. User has app open in Teams meeting side panel. In the below screenshot, note that the app is listed in the interface (red circle), and open in the side panel. 2. User is pushed into a breakout room. The user does not interact with the interface and is automatically pushed into a breakout room. 3. Upon joining the breakout room, the app appears to remain open in the side panel, but the content disappears. In the below screenshot, note that: The side panel app content is now empty/blank. The app icon disappears from the Teams meeting interface (red circle). This is expected, but just want to note that the app is not attached to the breakout room at all. Thoughts My understanding is that apps don't carry over from the main Teams meeting into breakout rooms (though apps can still be added inside of breakout rooms), so the curiosity here is why the side panel app remains open when moving from the main room to a breakout room. And one more interesting note — using the three dots and "Reload" on a side panel app gets the app to reload and work again inside the breakout room, despite the app not being listed as an interface tab within the breakout room. I don't necessarily need the app to remain usable as a user joins a breakout room, but I am wondering what's going on here with the app remaining open/visible.
Part 00: Beyond Team Pride — Copilot Pages as the True Entry Point
In Part 0, I shared my personal motivation from an education experience. Building on that, here I want to highlight another reason — the fragmentation of Microsoft 365. The Problem The boundaries between apps are too strong, so to users they appear as completely separate worlds. The Challenge If this siloed culture continues, even new features will not solve the root issue — they will only add more complexity. My Proposal (Parts 1–3) That’s why I made my proposals in Part 1–3: Part 1: Simplify Copilot fragmentation Part 2: Vertical navigation to prevent getting lost Part 3: Dynamic sidebar for meetings Feasibility This is not an impossible idea. With Graph API and Fluent UI, plus existing side panels (e.g., Teams), unified lists, switching, and a meeting sidebar can all be implemented. It’s mainly integration and UX alignment, which makes it low-cost and high-impact. My Ask So please, prioritize user experience over team pride. If Copilot Pages becomes the true all-in-one entry point, Microsoft’s technology will shine even brighter — and users will finally say: “This is exactly what we’ve been waiting for.” 👉 Next: Part 4, “Thoughts Under a Cloudy Sky”, to explore the future vision. 00弾：メンツよりユーザー体験を ― Copilot Pagesを入口に 0弾では、自分の教育体験からの“きっかけ”を書きました。 その延長線上で、もう一つの理由――Microsoft 365の分断問題について整理します。 Microsoftの問題点 アプリごとの境界が強すぎて、ユーザーからは“別々の世界”に見えてしまう。 Microsoftの課題 この「縦割り文化」が続けば、新機能を出しても根本的な解決にはならず、かえって複雑さを増すだけです。 私の提案（第1〜3弾） だからこそ私は、第1弾〜第3弾の提案を出しました。 第1弾：Copilot乱立の整理 第2弾：縦スクロールUIで迷子防止 第3弾：会議UXの進化（動的サイドバー） 提案実現の可能性 これは実現不可能な話ではありません。 Graph API と Fluent UI、そして既存のサイドパネル（例：Teams）を組み合わせれば、統一リスト／切替や会議サイドバーは実装できます。 要は 統合とUX整理 であり、低コスト・高効果です。 最後にお願い どうか、メンツよりユーザー体験を最優先にしてください。 Copilot Pagesが本当のオールインワン入口になれば、Microsoftの技術はさらに輝き、ユーザーはこう言うでしょう。 「これこそ、私たちが求めていたものだ」と。 👉 次は第4弾、「曇り空に想うこと」 で、さらに未来像を描きます。
