Microsoft Copilot (Microsoft 365)
Updated September 8, 2026: We have updated the timeline. Thank you for your patience. [Introduction] To help organizations analyze more recent Microsoft 365 Copilot usage trends, we’re adding a new export option in the Copilot dashboard. In addition to the existing user‑week export (see MC1173208), dashboard users with company‑level access will be able to export a subset of de‑identified Copilot usage metrics aggregated by user and day. This option includes 28 days of activity data and supports more granular, short‑term insights into Copilot adoption. Exported data will usually reflect copilot activity up to 3 days before the export date; actual timing may vary A minimum of 50 Microsoft 365 Copilot licenses is required. This feature applies to the Viva Insights web app. This message is associated with the Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 547749. Screenshot 1 - Export data button in Copilot dashb

(Updated) Improved copy and paste support for @mentions and shared contacts in Microsoft Teams

Microsoft Teams
Updated September 2, 2026: We have updated the timeline. Thank you for your patience. [Introduction] Microsoft Teams is improving the copy and paste experience for messages that contain @mentions, shared contacts, and other supported @tags. Previously, when users copied and pasted messages containing mentions, those mentions could be converted into plain text and lose their interactivity. With this update, Teams preserves supported tags during copy and paste whenever possible. If a tag is valid in the destination conversation, it remains interactive and behaves the same way as when originally authored. If the tag cannot be used in that context, it safely falls back to plain text while preserving the original display text. This ensures a more consistent and reliable messaging experience across chats and channels. This message applies to Teams for Windows desktop, Teams for Mac desktop, an
