From the microsoft admin backend it is possible to download usage from copilot, so it is possible to see how many prompts users have made etc. But i struggle to find an API that support that lookup. If have found API that show last activity date - but need an API that shows how many prompts etc has been used. I don´t want to see what is prompted of course - but just to show amount of prompts, so we can verify how much usage there is and make some automation in case copilot is not used, as license then can be removed40Views0likes1CommentHow Do I Secure Copilot?

What I Tell Concerned Users
Copilot Notebook and OneNote both use the word notebook, so it is easy to assume that one is replacing the other. That is not what is happening. OneNote remains a useful place to capture notes, organize information, and develop content over time. Copilot Notebook serves a different purpose. It brings selected sources together so Copilot can help you work toward a specific project, topic, or outcome. You may use both tools within the same workflow. However, there are also times when Copilot Chat or SharePoint may be all you need. In my full article, I compare Copilot Notebook and OneNote, explain the licensing considerations, share workplace examples, and provide a simple way to choose the right Microsoft 365 tool for the work. https://traccreations4e.com/copilot-notebook-vs-onenote/ #MSFTOneNotePartner #traccreations4e-p26 8/3/202660Views0likes0CommentsIs My Code Safe with GitHub Copilot?

Guys… seriously… we need some improvements here. I’m not asking Copilot to solve quantum physics or decode alien transmissions. I’m asking a Microsoft program for help with a Microsoft program. You’d think that would be the one scenario where Copilot would shine, right? Like, “Ah yes, my home turf, allow me to demonstrate competence.” But no. I can’t even get Copilot to correctly explain how to do basic SharePoint tasks. BASIC. As in, “click the thing, then click the other thing.” Instead I get a TED Talk about SharePoint philosophy and a guided meditation on patience. And then there’s the folder comparison fiasco. I want Copilot to do something so simple it should practically be a reflex: Compare two folders on my hard drive and tell me if they’re identical. Copilot’s response? “Absolutely, I can do that!” Followed immediately by an ever‑expanding scavenger hunt of things I apparently need to do first. It’s like asking someone to hand you a screwdriver and they say, “Sure, but first you’ll need to assemble this IKEA shelving unit, install three dependencies, sacrifice a goat, and agree to a quest.” I’m glad to hear you’re merging all the copilots into one “super Copilot.” Great idea. Fantastic. But let’s be honest — I’m praying the one that survives is the personal Copilot, because Copilot 365… whew. That thing feels like it was built by a committee that communicates exclusively through interpretive dance. And don’t even get me started on the wrapper versions. Those are like Copilot wearing a Halloween costume of itself, but the costume is made of cardboard and disappointment. And by the way — I’m STILL waiting for Copilot to create an app or program that automatically files my Outlook emails into folders. This is not a moon landing. This is not a Mars rover. This is not a Nobel Prize category. This is a simple, everyday, normal-person task. Yet somehow Copilot treats it like I’ve asked it to build the next Windows release from scratch using only a spoon and positive thinking. Come on, guys. We love the vision. We love the potential. But the basics need to work before the magic tricks do.38Views1like1Comment
