Shipped! Surveys Agent now live for customers in Microsoft 365 Copilot (Frontier program)
Today, we’re excited to introduce Surveys Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot, a brand-new pre-built agent developed by Microsoft, now available through the Frontier program. Think of Surveys Agent as your personal survey expert—ready to help you from start to finish. Whether you're gathering feedback from a training session, measuring employee satisfaction, or running customer research, Surveys Agent has your back. It helps you: Draft surveys tailored to your goals so you have a shareable survey right away Refine questions to make your survey easy to use, and drive meaningful results Launch your survey with a clear plan and timeline Send invitations and reminders to boost response rates Track progress and analyze results—all through a simple chat conversation Gone are the days of piecing together multiple tools to create forms, chase replies, and interpret feedback. Surveys Agent streamlines the entire process into a simple conversational experience, making survey creation as intuitive as having a chat. While drafting your survey, you can view refinements instantly alongside the conversation. When you’re ready to launch, Surveys Agent recommends the optimal timeline and distribution channels, even preparing and sending invitations to your selected audience – all from within the same conversation. From there, the agent keeps you informed by automatically tracking response rates, sending timely reminders, or notifying when it’s ready to dive into the results. You can come back to the conversation at any point to check in on the survey’s status or analyze the responses – ask questions in chat or export your findings directly to an Excel workbook. It’s like having an intelligent assistant that helps you design better questions, launch with a plan, send reminders, and analyze results without all the heavy lifting. Surveys Agent is now available to commercial users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license as part of the Frontier program that gives customers early access to new Copilot innovations while they’re still in development.

How to public mobile layout to web
Hi, I have prepared a Power BI dashboard using the mobile layout, and we would like to make this mobile view available on the web. However, I can only see it working in the Power BI mobile app, and I am experiencing difficulties when trying to implement it on a web page. Is there any way to publish the mobile layout on the web? If so, how? Thanks.
Creating a live document
Hi All, I wonder if anyone could help me please or guide me in the right direction. We are a small charity who provides free transport for Cancer clients in our area as our nearest hospital is over 60 miles away. Once a week we produce a 'Run Sheet' in Word, convert it to a PDF and email the link of the file to all our drivers for their duties the following week. The problem we have is the sheet is out of date the minute we send it out as clients call continually and new 'runs' are added. We prefer PDF as our drivers (some with limited tech skills) have PDF Readers by default on their smart phones. Whether it's word or PDF, how could we create a 'live' run sheet so that when the co-ordinators add or change the 'run sheet' within our OneDrive the drivers can see this. I know the basic level of this is to just create a Word document and create a share link and send that but I am sure there will be a better way of doing it so that we can point 'one' link and not have to share the a different file each week. Is there something within the Microsoft Family that would do the job better? We have a full non-profit licence. Sorry if that is confusing. Any ideas are most welcome. Thanks, Andrew
Office365 Autoupdate on Mac
Last week I had an issue with Autoupdate on Microsoft365 where OneNote failed to update, other app were fine. I tried selecting just this app and updating it but got a download error. Autoupdate indicates "some apps have encountered errors" and retrying just repeats the download error. I've tried machine based fixes but none have worked and I suspect it's something else as I have a Mac mini and MacBook doing the same along with my wife who has a Mac desktop. The issue is still the same a week on.Where Microsoft MVP Impact Meets Innovation: Microsoft 365 Community Conference 2026
