Publish rich and interactive content with HTML pages in SharePoint
HTML pages in SharePoint let you create rich, interactive content with Copilot or upload existing HTML, then edit, publish, and share it alongside modern pages. Copilot-created pages use your site’s branding, while familiar SharePoint permissions and security controls help manage access. Availability is rolling out gradually through the Frontier program.Introducing SharePoint tools in Work IQ
SharePoint tools in Work IQ are now in public preview, bringing more than 60 native SharePoint operations to Copilots and agents. Built on the same tools that power Copilot in SharePoint, they help agents find, create, organize and share content with less prompting. Internal evaluations show task pass rates improving from 70.1% to 84.6%, while using 16% fewer tokens. Delegated permissions, least-privilege scopes and admin policies keep access governed, with consumption-based billing through Copilot Credits.SharePoint Showcase: How Microsoft uses Copilot in SharePoint, and how you can get started

Collaboration is changing as teams of humans and agents now work together to get more done. That’s why we’ve evolved Copilot to empower these human-agent teams: just last month, we announced copilot in Teams, Autopilot as your digital teammate, and new tools in Copilot for managing a team’s content workflows. Today, we are taking the next step in human-agent team collaboration, designed to help address the problem of fragmented and outdated information and enable agent teammates to have the required team context they need to perform tasks and answer questions. In Frontier Preview, Copilot and agents in the newly announced Copilot app, Teams, and SharePoint will be able to create, contribute to, curate, and reference a team’s knowledge base in SharePoint. If the player doesn’t load, open the video in a new window: Open video Knowledge bases can support a range of team needs by bringing together the context people and agents need to do their best work. Here are some examples of how we are working with frontier teams to leverage a knowledge base: Legal: Collecting isolated knowledge from emails, files, and personal notes to help agents reference relevant context when creating agreements and contracts. Engineering: Combining technical specifications, user feedback, market research, and product history to give coding agents project context and support the onboarding of new engineers. Sales: Organizing account knowledge and history so sales agents can recommend relevant next steps or quickly provide account snapshots. Team members can explicitly contribute content— whether email, messages, meetings or content that is already on the SharePoint sites they work with. Copilot will organize all this information into an up-to-date knowledge base for the team, readable to people and grounding any agents that are working with the team. Turning raw content into synthesized knowledge At its core, the knowledge base is a specialized library of interlinked agent-friendly markdown files, created by Copilot using Work IQ’s native knowledge compilation engine. This content processing platform can help transform a team’s content into agent-ready knowledge to improve agent performance and results. In our early internal testing, we see that an agent’s responses were up to 4x faster and 30% more token-efficient with the knowledge base when retrieving content to answer questions and performing team tasks 1 . Figure 1: The knowledge base pipeline We believe this is the first step in transforming how human-agent teams work together by leveraging Work IQ’s knowledge compilation engine. As the science advances, the engine improves. By combining advances in content processing with the latest corpus enrichment innovations from our Applied Science research teams, we are continually improving how enterprise content is transformed into usable knowledge. The evidence is promising so far. For example, in a recent paper, we evaluated agents on the task of answering complex questions that require connecting information across multiple documents. We observed significant improvements in both cost efficiency and quality when compared with traditional agents that worked with the original documents or other enrichment methods. Figure 2: Retrieval quality and cost improvement when using the knowledge base corpus map. Note: Results are from a synthetic test environment and published in a public research paper. With millions of sites created by customers every day, SharePoint plays a critical role as the home for the content and knowledge of a team, whether as a vibrant site of pages, files, and lists or the backing content store for a Teams Channel or Modern Group. When enhanced with a knowledge base, the SharePoint site evolves from a content source to the context layer for a team that people, Copilot, and agents can use and reference together. What’s available now This is rolling out now to our Frontier preview tenants. You can start by adding a knowledge base to any SharePoint site— including those backing Teams Channels and Microsoft 365 Groups. You can further use Copilot in SharePoint and the newly announced Autopilot in the Copilot app to create, curate and use your knowledge base. And with the power of Autopilot, you can also use the knowledge base directly from within Teams, from email (by emailing your autopilot). If the player doesn’t load, open the video in a new window: Open video Note: While the knowledge base and its tools are available in Frontier public, the integration with Autopilot requires access to Autopilot, which is rolling out on a separate cadence. Knowledge base is currently available only to users enabled for usage-based billing. Administrators can manage access and spending through the Microsoft 365 admin center. Learn more about managing AI experiences enabled by usage-based billing and how to create the right policies for your organization. Because knowledge base capabilities are currently in preview, billing terms may change before general availability. What’s coming soon Next on our roadmap: Knowledge bases in more places you work, including tools in Cowork and Copilot in Teams, and custom agents created in Microsoft Copilot Studio. Deeper integration with M365 groups – to allow for easier bootstrapping knowledge bases from existing sources (channels, email). Automated, ongoing curation with the help of Microsoft Copilot Studio’s agent flows to help keep your knowledge bases up to date as your organization’s content changes. Greater content scaling, building on our corpus map approach to support larger volumes of content with higher quality at a lower cost. Integration with CLIs and coding agents via Work IQ to allow a broader range of agents to contribute to and work with a knowledge base. If the player doesn’t load, open the video in a new window: Open video More content AI innovation across the Copilot ecosystem Our content AI strategy is focused on helping organizations turn their content into knowledge that people and agents can use in the flow of work. We’re continuing to bring that strategy to life across the Microsoft 365 and Copilot ecosystem with knowledge bases in SharePoint. And we’re not done yet! Here are a few more recent updates in the content AI space: SharePoint tools in Work IQ are coming soon. Last month, we announced that SharePoint tools were coming to the new Copilot app through Work IQ. Copilot in SharePoint is now generally available, bringing Copilot directly into the place where your organization’s content lives. It helps you understand, create, organize, and act on content with AI. Learn more in last month’s blog. New capabilities to govern the content that powers AI. Copilot and agents perform best on well-governed content. The SharePoint Admin Agent is the centerpiece of our new capabilities for getting there. Admins can use natural language to get tenant-level analysis and guided remediation across permissions, content lifecycle, storage, and settings. They can also monitor cross-geo content moves (preview). Catalog management turns a sprawling tenant into structured, manageable content clusters, so admins can scale actions like site attestations, access reviews, and Restricted Content Discovery, and build rollout plans that better match how their organization works. A detailed file level EEEU permissions report enables targeted cleanup, insights on agent access show which agents are reaching SharePoint and OneDrive content, and Governance Hub helps site owners follow through on assigned actions. Today’s preview is just a first step, and we look forward to building this with you. Learn more about how you can be among the first to put the knowledge base to work for your teams and help shape what comes next by sharing feedback. You can either share in-product feedback using Copilot in SharePoint, Autopilot, or sign up here for an opportunity to go deeper with us on this journey. References: 1.

SharePoint Showcase: Refreshed SharePoint mobile app Your sites, files, news, and people, together in the redesigned SharePoint mobile app. Work does not always happen while you are sitting at your desk. You may need to review a presentation before a meeting, find a document someone shared, or catch up on an important team update while moving between tasks. The redesigned SharePoint mobile app now gives you a mobile starting point for finding relevant content, seeing what is new, and returning to the work that matters to you, similar to the SharePoint Discover experience on web. The app brings your sites, files, news, and people together in a connected experience designed for how you work on a phone. Alongside the refreshed design, we’ve updated sign-in, improved content loading and made navigation more dependable. These changes help make everyday tasks feel smoother, whether you’re checking a document before a meeting or catching up on the go.SharePoint Publish: The next steps for Viva Amplify and centralized corporate communications
By: Sarah Mathurin and Kripal Kavi Corporate communicators need more than a place to publish updates. They need a connected workspace to create compelling content, plan campaigns, reach employees across channels, and measure impact. That is the foundation of the new Publish experience in SharePoint. With Publish, communicators don’t have to remember another destination, they get a unified place to create, distribute, and measure communications without leaving the platform where their organizational news already lives. Publish serves as the primary hub for communicators and content creators in SharePoint, bringing pages, news, Amplify content, campaigns, templates, analytics, and publishing workflows into a single modern interface, all powered by AI. Our goal is to help communicators deliver the right message to the right audience at the right time. Site campaigns are one way we’re bringing that vision into the everyday SharePoint publishing workflow. Learn more about Publish Getting started with Publish in SharePoint | Microsoft Support What's new: Site Campaigns Today we’re introducing Site campaigns in SharePoint, a new capability that brings campaign management closer to where SharePoint news is created and published. Site campaigns are built directly into your SharePoint site. You can create a site campaign from the Publish experience in SharePoint or inside an existing or new SharePoint site by navigating to the ‘site settings’ menu. Note: For more information on campaigns in SharePoint, click here: Manage campaigns in SharePoint | Microsoft Support Once a site campaign is created, corporate communicators can: Centralize news content: Create and group related SharePoint news posts into a campaign on your SharePoint site. Distribute across channels: Publish to SharePoint, Outlook, Viva Engage, and Teams in one workflow. Track campaign performance: View aggregated analytics across all channels in one place, providing the same visibility you’d expect from the Amplify app. Build on SharePoint's foundation: Because site campaigns are native to SharePoint, communicators and organizations automatically benefit from SharePoint’s existing governance, permissions, co-authoring, and content management capabilities. Site campaigns are available for all SharePoint and Amplify users. Campaigns: Viva Amplify app vs. Amplify in SharePoint To help your organization navigate this evolution, here is how the capabilities compare across both experiences. Both app campaigns and site campaigns are surfaced in SharePoint Publish for easy access. Amplify publications appear alongside news posts labeled as coming from an Amplify campaign and both campaign types appear together in the campaigns section. Feature Viva Amplify App Campaigns Site Campaigns in SharePoint Structure & Hosting Built on dedicated campaign sites. Groups cross-channel publications together for centralized analytics tracking. Lives within a SharePoint site, grouping related news posts for cross-channel publishing and aggregated analytics Publishing Enables publishing across SharePoint, Viva Engage (up to 5 communities), Teams and Outlook. Enables publishing across SharePoint, Viva Engage (cross-post only), Outlook, Teams* *With Viva license Customization per channel Supports channel-specific content customization, allowing users to tailor content separately for Viva Engage, SharePoint, Outlook, or Teams. Does not support channel-specific content customization across SharePoint, Viva Engage, Teams, and Outlook. Approvals Amplify app approvals work with Teams Approvals and let you publish automatically, on a schedule, or manually after approval Site-level approvals can be applied across SharePoint news posts hosted in a site campaign, with Power Automate supporting customizable workflows. Scheduling Schedule any publication created on a campaign site to go live at a future date and time, without additional site setup Schedule pages and news post to publish at a future date and time, once enabled at the site level. Membership & Permissions Campaign-level roles include Owners, Editors, and Approvers; there is no read-only role. Managed broadly at the site level. Site owners/members inherit full site campaign access, while site visitors or readers can view published news. Strategic Planning Includes a Campaign Brief for defining goals, objectives, and key messages that remain visible while drafting. No standalone Campaign Brief; site campaigns focus on multi-channel distribution and analytics. Creation control IT administrators can manage global creation permissions to control who can create campaigns in the organization. Campaign creation follows SharePoint site permissions; site members and owners can create site campaigns. Analytics Supports cross-channel campaign analytics for Outlook, Teams, SharePoint and Engage. Supports cross-channel campaign analytics for Outlook, Teams, SharePoint and Engage. Note: Amplify app campaigns and SharePoint site campaigns are not interchangeable. SharePoint news posts can only be associated with SharePoint site campaigns; Amplify app publications can only be associated with Amplify app campaigns. Editing per channel is not available in Amplify from SharePoint & site campaigns. What's coming soon: Cross-post to Viva Engage SharePoint helps communicators create rich, engaging stories, announcements or news posts for their organizations. Viva Engage helps those stories travel through the communities and conversations where people connect every day. With cross-posting from SharePoint to Viva Engage, authors can bring these experiences together: one post, one conversation. The new experience lets you distribute a SharePoint news post to a Viva Engage storyline or community. Readers can open the complete news post in full fidelity from Engage, while comments, replies, and reactions made in SharePoint or across Engage surfaces (mobile, web, Outlook, Teams) remain synchronized as one conversation. Learn more here: Cross-post SharePoint News to Viva Engage | Microsoft Support Distributing to Engage: Viva Amplify app vs. Amplify in SharePoint Feature Viva Amplify App Amplify in SharePoint Destinations Share to multiple (5) Engage destinations. Each Engage post has its own separate conversation. Share to only one Engage destination. The SharePoint news post and the Engage post share one conversation. Editing Authors can edit the post directly in Engage. Authors edit the SharePoint news post, and changes sync to Engage automatically. Posts can't be edited in Engage. Media attachments Shown at the end of the Engage thread. Not shown at the end of the Engage thread. Readers can select 'view news post' to see all content, including media. Analytics Thread created is classified as 'Article' type Thread created is classified as 'SharePoint News' type What does it mean for Viva Amplify customers? The Viva Amplify app will continue to be available, allowing organizations to maintain their existing workflows without interruption. There are no changes to our licensing model. At the same time, we’re bringing Amplify capabilities directly into SharePoint Publish, making it easier for creators to access distribution and analytics within their existing SharePoint workflows. We’ve already integrated Amplify distribution and analytics features into native SharePoint experiences, and over time, we’ll continue bringing more Amplify capabilities into this unified experience. This update is not a replacement for the Viva Amplify app. Rather, it gives customers more choice in how they access Amplify capabilities while establishing SharePoint as the direction for future corporate communications investments. We encourage customers to become familiar with and use Amplify in SharePoint whenever possible. Together with AI-powered experiences such as Copilot in SharePoint, this evolution gives corporate communicators a more integrated way to create and manage campaigns, streamline workflows, distribute content, and understand performance across Microsoft 365.
