| MC432475 | (Updated) Quick Access Teams and Sharepoint Document Libraries in win32 backstage | Updated May 16, 2023: We have updated the rollout timeline below. Thank you for your patience. Currently, users experience some frustration when using Office products because of all different routes that they must use to access all their content. The Quick Access feature will allow users to access shared libraries from both their SharePoint and Teams locations. When the user opens files from shared libraries, these libraries will show up in the form of a list which will encourage users to save and open files to these libraries with ease. This helps deliver a more consistent, coherent storage location experience across M365 apps. This new backstage experience won’t show up in Teams, SharePoint, or OneDrive but does include storage locations from OneDrive and Teams (sites/channels) which are stored on SharePoint. [When this will happen:] Targeted Release: We will begin rolling out late June (previously late April) and expect to complete by late July (previously late May). Standard Release: We will begin rolling out mid-August (previously late June) and expect to complete by mid-September (previously late July). |

| MC543384 | (Updated) Your Microsoft 365 services will automatically display your Power BI content by end of June | Updated June 24, 2023: We have updated the rollout timeline below. Thank you for your patience. In Nov ‘22, Power BI (PBI) launched the preview of integration with Microsoft Graph, with the goal to increase discovery of PBI reports, dashboards and apps across several surfaces like Microsoft 365, SharePoint and Bing @ Work. This setting allows users in your org to see certain Power BI metadata (such as content titles and types, or open and sharing history) in Microsoft 365 services like search results and recommended content lists. Metadata from Power BI datasets are not displayed. For example, a report that was shared with you in Teams or Outlook, will now appear in Microsoft 365 Home, SharePoint or Bing @ Work. You can also search for Power BI items in Microsoft 365 Home. This setting applies only if your Power BI and Microsoft 365 tenants are in the same geographical region. We will automatically enable this setting for all users, unless you disable it manually (instructions below). This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 102409 [When this will happen:] We will begin to roll out feature capabilities by late June (previously mid-June) and will complete by early August (previously late July). |
