Details:

What changed: Context IQ now allows you to search for and select Microsoft Teams channels when creating prompts in Copilot Chat, so responses are grounded in a specific channel instead of across all Teams content.

Why: Users asked for more precise ways to focus Copilot Chat on relevant team conversations and reduce noise from unrelated channels.

Try this:

• Open Copilot Chat and start a new prompt.
• Use the Context IQ menu to search for and select a Teams channel.
• Ask a question to get responses grounded in that channel's conversations.

Why this matters:

Business impact: Improves response relevance and reduces time spent searching across multiple Teams channels.

Personal impact: Makes it easier to get accurate, channel-specific answers without manual filtering.
