Introducing communities in Teams: Unifying company communication and connection

As organizations strive to strengthen culture and connect distributed teams, Microsoft is making it easier than ever for people to engage with their communities in the flow of work, right alongside chats, channels, and meetings.

Agents in OneDrive Now Generally Available: Your AI Assistant Built with Your Own Content

If you’ve ever wished Copilot could remember the context of a project, understand the documents your team already relies on, or answer repeat questions without retracing your steps, Agents in OneDrive were built for you. Rather than asking Copilot the same questions across individual files, you can now create an Agent that understands an entire set of documents, project plans, specs, meeting notes, research, or decks, and responds with answers grounded in your content.

More logical navigation through Word documents for screen readers

A new setting in Microsoft Word for Windows that allows you to use the up and down arrow keys to move through all the content in your document based on the logical reading order. With the new experience, these keys better recognize and more intuitively navigate columns of text, tables, text wrapped around an image, and dropped cap letters, and when you’re in a multi-page view.

Introducing Copilot Connector Checker

Copilot connectors extend Microsoft 365 Copilot and Copilot Search to your external business systems. They bring line of business content—like ServiceNow, Confluence etc data—into Microsoft Graph so it can be safely discovered inside M365 Copilot and Agent experiences while honoring your existing permissions.
