Loop development has seemingly stopped
Our team adopted Loop since many of us prefer the personal knowledge management system style of Notion or Obsidian to other classic note-taking and sharing software. However, many core features are still not present that have been Day 1 features of these other tools, and a quick check of the Loop Roadmap leads me to believe that most features will be security/governance focused. That's disappointing if true, because right now Loop is clearly inspired by those tools, but incredibly far behind in a way that makes it hard to justify their continued use. For example: Cannot embed documents inside Loop-- in Notion you can just drag and drop a PDF to upload, and the /embed command lets you put an interactive document inside the page Cannot select multiple pages to re-arrange structure No Copilot to perform page cleanup-- Notion lets you use AI to fix formatting, and it works very well. No command palette-- this is a must for operating in a knowledge management system No Mac app No mind map a la Obsidian I could continue to produce these examples, but I am hoping to find out that once some core governance features are completed, Microsoft will be focusing some development efforts on improving this platform-- we hope it is not abandonware a few years into it's launch.
Tab is not visible for single member in shared channel
Hello everyone, Another day, another M365 mystery. I have a client who added a website tab to a shared channel that is linked to a Planner plan. Technically, this “plan” isn’t a standard plan, as it was created via a Loop component in the channel conversation. Very confusing, I know. So far, so good—this tab is visible to all members of the shared channel except one person. I’ve checked, and everyone has the same licenses. Any ideas on how to solve this mystery? Best regards, Hisham
Loops table rules broken
When attempting to create a rule on a table in Loops, I get the following: The "here" opens the Loop in a new tab. MS Support, through our corporate support, responded that the Loops product team was deprecating this feature and taking it out of the UI. There is a Power Automate trigger based on Loop triggers. The above seems unlikely unless there is a replacement in the works, such as using Power Automate. Does anyone know what gives here?
Plans for native Windows Apps for Forms, Loop, Designer etc..
Are there any plans for native Windows Apps for Forms, Loop, Designer etc.. ? It is disappointing with Windows becoming more of a focus for AI, that these newer apps are just webapps on Windows, but you can get a native app on Android or iOS.Microsoft Loop to Support External Access
The Loop app is a powerful collaborative platform that has been handicapped up to now with a restriction on its External Sharing capabilities. That restriction is being lifted in a two-phase process starting in April 2024. Tenants without sensitivity labels will get the capability first followed by those that use sensitivity labels. https://office365itpros.com/2024/03/15/loop-app-external-sharing/
Loop workstation read only access still on the roadmap?
There is an article on the Microsoft 365 Blog "Loop governance, lifecycle, manageability for IT Admins - Nov 2024" by dancontoso that indicates read only access for workspaces are coming H1 CY2025. Is that still the case? I have a user asking. I looked on the Roadmap and didn't see anything specifically relating to this, so I am concerned it was canceled or pushed back.Stay Organized with Loop's Recap Feature and Copilot
