Expand Copilot Agents with Mail, People, and Meeting Insights
Copilot declarative agents can now integrate with richer M365 data: mail, people's data, Teams chats, and meeting transcripts.
What Changed: Agents can now tap into richer Microsoft 365 data sources - email, Teams chats, meeting transcripts, and people data - to deliver more context-aware answers and automate tasks seamlessly.
Why: Modern work spans inboxes, chats, calendars, and documents. Constant switching slows teams down. By grounding declarative agents in organizational data, Copilot reduces context-switching, improves accuracy, and accelerates decision-making.
Try This:
- Create a declarative agent that uses Meetings data to generate a project summary.
- Sample query: "Summarize decisions and blockers from this week's meetings relating to Project X."
- Create a declarative agent that uses Email data to draft emails.
- Sample query: "Draft follow up emails for unresolved items from yesterday."
Why This Matters:
Business Impact: Teams works faster when Copilot agents bring context from across Microsoft 365 into one place. By reducing time spent searching through emails, chats and transcripts, organizations improve decision accuracy, accelerate workflows, and keep projects moving without delays.
Personal Impact: Users no longer need to juggle multiple tools to gather context. Copilot agents can consolidate multiple knowledge capabilities in one place, saving time and reducing cognitive load throughout the workday.
