| MC1136039 | Manager insights now in Viva Insights web app, with new team view for Copilot Dashboard | The Viva Insights web app will now serve as the single destination for manager insights, with new capabilities. Key new capabilities in the web app include: Copilot Dashboard, tailored to the manager's team, with pages for Adoption, Impact, and Learning. Additional Copilot analytics reports, such as the Copilot for Sales adoption report, tailored to the manager's team. Analyst-published embedded reports, enabling managers to gain access to an extensive library of reports available within Advanced analysis, automatically tailored to their teams. Delegation support, allowing managers to share their view with others in their organization. Managers using Organization insights in the Viva Insights Teams app will soon see a banner informing them of the new location to access these capabilities. Once these capabilities launch worldwide, managers will no longer be able to access Organization insights in the Teams app. What do you need to do to prepare No action is required by admins. Still, you might want to: 1. Prepare for default-on enablement of manager insights If you haven't previously enabled manager insights, managers with 10 or more team members will receive access by default. Admins can customize this threshold as needed (minimum allowed is 5) in the Manager settings tab of the Viva insights web app. If your organization has already enabled manager insights and set a minimum team size threshold, those settings will continue to apply. Managers who meet the threshold and are enabled by Admins will automatically gain access to the new capabilities in the Viva Insights web app. Note: There are no changes in the license requirements needed to access team-scoped insights in the Viva insights web app. This means that managers will continue to require a Viva Insights or a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. 2. Manage delegation controls If delegation is already in use by managers in your organization, existing delegates will automatically gain access to these new capabilities in the web app. Admins can manage delegation at the tenant or group level through the Microsoft 365 admin center. 3. Turn on report publishing Admins can enable analysts to publish a broad set of Power BI reports from Advanced analysis directly to managers, giving them access to insights similar to those that exist in the Organizational behavior reports, and more! To do this, your organization must opt into the public preview for report publishing. 4. Inform managers where to go A new, more powerful experience is coming. Let your managers know that these capabilities will soon be available in the Viva Insights web app. To learn more, please see: Connect to the Microsoft Copilot Dashboard for Microsoft 365 customers | Microsoft Learn Microsoft Viva Feature access management | Microsoft Learn Configure manager settings | Microsoft Learn Compliance considerations Introduces or modifies AI/ML capabilities: Yes - Copilot chat insights in the Viva Insights Teams app will no longer be available.

| MC796790 | Update: Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Teams: Unified management of Teams apps in Teams, Outlook, and the Microsoft 365 app | Before this rollout, managing Teams apps that work in Outlook and the Microsoft 365 app was fragmented between the Integrated apps page in the Microsoft 365 admin center for Outlook and the Microsoft 365 app, and the Teams admin center for Teams. This sometimes resulted in different settings for the same app in the two admin centers. With Unified App Management, we will be consolidating app catalog management into a single platform. You will be able to manage apps on the Integrated apps page in the Microsoft 365 admin center or in the Teams admin center, and any changes made in either admin center will synchronize. What you can expect App catalog enhancements: Apps will start showing hosts where they are available: Teams, Outlook, or the Microsoft 365 app. Organization-wide settings: App availability default settings will now apply to apps used in Teams, Outlook, and Microsoft 365 app. App installs: Apps deployed from the Integrated apps page in Microsoft 365 admin center will be preinstalled in all applicable hosts for the app. Unlike app preinstallation in the Teams App setup policy, new app installs will provide access to the preinstalled apps, similar to deploying the app for Outlook and the Microsoft 365 App.. For more details on app deployment, refer to MC795355 Microsoft Teams admin center: App centric management for app installation and changes to app setup policies (May 2024)]. App availability: Managing app availability will apply to all applicable app hosts. App block/unblock: Blocking or unblocking apps will apply to all applicable app hosts. Consolidation of existing app settings: All existing app settings will be unified between Integrated apps (MAC) and Manage apps (TAC) pages. Merge rules can be found in Manage apps that work across Teams, Outlook, and Microsoft 365 | Microsoft Learn. These changes cannot be rolled back. Consolidation report: After further review we have decided not to proceed with this change at this time. We apologize for any inconvenience. |
Before this rollout, managing Teams apps that work in Outlook and the Microsoft 365 app was fragmented between the Integrated apps page in the Microsoft 365 admin center for Outlook and the Microsoft 365 app, and the Teams admin center for Teams. This sometimes resulted in different settings for the same app in the two admin centers. With Unified agent app management, you will be able to manage apps on the Integrated apps page in the Microsoft 365 admin center or in the Teams admin center, and any changes made in either admin center will synchronize. What you can expect: You'll gain a consolidated view of agent and Microsoft 365 app availability across both Microsoft 365 and Teams admin centers. Changes made in either admin center to the agent and app availability will automatically apply across all supported hosts. Organization-wide defaults for both admin centers will be in sync and govern app availability across Teams, Outlook, and the Microsoft 365 copilot app. What you need to do to prepare To ensure a smooth transition, review your tenant-level and individual agent/app settings (app allow/block & user availability) in both the Microsoft 365 Admin Center and the Teams Admin Center. If different departments within your organization manage these settings, we suggest coordinating efforts to complete the review collaboratively. This update will be rolled out automatically by the stated date, and no immediate action is required. However, it's a good time to update any internal documentation related to agent and app management policies. |

| MC1111778 | (Updated) Microsoft Purview | Information Protection: Sensitivity label grouping modernization | Coming soon to Microsoft Purview | Information Protection: To help improve label usability and configuration, the sensitivity labeling scheme will be simplified to only consist of labels and label groupings. This move to a dynamic architecture will make it easier to move a child label into label groups, out of label groups, and between label groups without losing referential integrity, allowing customers to better scale and reorganize their labels across their entire data estate. Tenants in scope for manual migration to the new label scheme will see a message on the Sensitivity labels page in the Purview portal, where the tenant admin can access a simple manual migration wizard to opt in to the migration, which should complete in less than a few minutes or even seconds, depending on the label configuration. If you do not see this message, your tenant does not meet the criteria for manual migration (your tenant lacks applicable parent labels). This new label scheme will be rolled out to your tenant in the coming months. (and we will send a separate MC post in advance). |

So far co-organizers were able to set up event theming, manage registration, meeting options, view reports and more but were not able to edit event details like title, date/time, description, event group; nor publish or cancel event. Now they can! Co-organizer can edit event details, publish, and cancel the event like the organizer can. So once the co-organizer is added they will have full parity of experience as organizer and control/manage/edit event. This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 168524 [When this will happen:] Targeted release: We will begin rolling out mid-January 2025 (previously early January) and expect to complete by mid-January 2025 (previously mid-December). General Availability (Worldwide, GCC): We will begin rolling out mid-November 2025 (previously mid-January 2025) and expect to complete by late November 2025. (previously late December 2025). |

| MC695487 | (Updated) Contact Unification across Outlook and Teams | Updated July 31, 2025: We have updated the timeline. Thank you for your patience. Today, users can see Outlook contacts created with their Entra ID (AAD) account in Teams, but contacts created in Teams are not available in Outlook. To provide a consistent experience we are making changes to allow Teams contacts, created with a user's Entra ID (AAD) account, to be visible in Outlook as well. Upcoming changes to contacts in Teams and Outlook: Currently, Teams and Outlook maintain separate contact lists for enterprise users. Based on your feedback, we plan to introduce a unified contact experience, ensuring a consistent contacts experience across Outlook and Teams. In future, changes to contacts in users' organization (Entra ID) account in Teams will reflect in Outlook and vice versa. What's Happened so far: We have completed one round of migration of all Teams contacts to Outlook in January 2024. As a result, users may see more contacts in Outlook, namely those created in Teams and potentially Skype for Business contacts (if enabled). Existing Outlook contacts may also be enriched with additional details from corresponding Teams contacts. Teams users can see Outlook contacts but cannot edit them inside Teams. What's Coming: Users will gradually upgrade to the new unified experience from December 2024. The new experience will be enabled for each user across all endpoints (Desktop, Mobile, Devices etc.) simultaneously. Once the new experience is enabled for a user, they will see same set of contacts in Outlook and Teams. Any change in Outlook will reflect in Teams and vice versa. All Teams contact changes (creations and edits) made since January will be included in the unified store. During creations, a small set of users may see duplicate contacts in the unified store. To help users navigate the transition, category label 'Teams Conflict' will be applied to duplicate contacts. This label will help users see any conflicts (duplicates or inconsistencies) that need their attention. [When this will happen:] This activity is expected to be completed for all active users by August 2025 tentatively (previously June). Once this activity is complete, users will work with a single contact list across Teams and Outlook. |

| MC796790 | Update: Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Teams: Unified management of Teams apps in Teams, Outlook, and the Microsoft 365 app | Updated August 27, 2025: We have updated the content. Thank you for your patience. In 2023, we introduced Microsoft Teams apps that are compatible with Microsoft Outlook and the Microsoft 365 App (manifest version v1.13 or higher). Before this rollout, admin changes made in the Integrated apps section of the Microsoft 365 admin center would only affect these Teams apps in Outlook and the Microsoft 365 app. Similarly, changes made in the Teams admin center would exclusively affect Teams. Starting in June 2024, we will roll out Unified App Management to streamline the management of these apps across Teams, Outlook and the Microsoft 365 App, so they are consistently available across all supported clients. This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 393931. [When this will happen:] This rollout will happen in two major phases. Unified App Management can apply only to tenants that have migrated to app centric management in Teams admin center, as communicated in MC688930 (Updated) Teams admin center: App centric management and changes to app permission policies (November 2023). Phase 1 | General Availability (Worldwide): We will begin rolling out this feature end of September 2025. This initial phase targets tenants that have never modified their organization-wide defaults, app availability, or block/unblock in either the Microsoft 365 admin center or the Teams admin center. At the end of this phase, agent and app manageability will be unified across both Microsoft 365 admin center and Teams admin center ensuring agent and M365 apps availability configuration policies are in alignment for all future administrative changes. Phase 2: We will update this post with a timeline and more details in August 2025 (previously May 2025). |
Updated September 8, 2025: We have updated the title and content. Thank you for your patience. What it is Microsoft is rolling out a new feature to streamline how app and agent availability is managed across Teams, Outlook, and Microsoft 365 Copilot. Until now, IT admins configured availability settings separately in both the Microsoft 365 Admin Center (MAC) and the Teams Admin Center (TAC), which led to mismatches. With this update, you'll be able to unify availability policies for apps and agents across both portals, making app management more consistent and efficient. This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 393931. When this will happen: We will begin rolling out this feature late September 2025 and expect to complete by mid-November 2025. 1. Phase 1 - Default Tenant Unification We will begin rolling out this feature at the end of September 2025. This initial phase targets tenants that have never modified their organization-wide defaults, app availability, or block/unblock in either the Microsoft 365 admin center or the Teams admin center. At the end of this phase, agent and app manageability will be unified across both Microsoft 365 admin center and Teams admin center ensuring agent and Microsoft 365 apps availability policies are in alignment for all future administrative changes. This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 393931. 2. Phase 2 - Availability Alignment We will begin rolling out this feature at the end of October 2025. This phase targets tenants that have previously modified their organization-wide defaults, app availability, or block/unblock settings in either admin center. These tenants will be transitioned to a unified management experience across both Microsoft 365 and Teams admin centers. For tenants with agent or app availability differences across both admin centers, a wizard in the Teams admin center will help identify affected agents and apps and guide through resolving discrepancies. For tenants with no agent or app availability differences across both admin centers, guidance will be provided to help maintain unified availability policy for all future changes. 3. Phase 3 - Automatic Unification Tenants that haven't transitioned as part of Phase 1 & Phase 2, will be automatically moved to unified app agent management. We will update this post with a timeline and more details later. |
