Summary:

Details:
Updated June 13, 2025: We have updated the timeline below. Thank you for your patience.
Microsoft 365 Copilot responses in Microsoft Teams meetings can be shared to external apps (Word or Excel). Responses generated by Copilot in Meetings will come with a button to Open in another app. Although this will start with Word and Excel, more apps will be added in the future.
The Open in button will show up when:
A response has more than the set number of characters (1,300), which will make it long enough to warrant editing in a document. Shorter responses can always be copied/pasted anywhere outside of Teams, as long as the meeting policy allows.
A response has a table, which will allow it to be exported to Excel if the meeting policy allows.
Responses will only be able to be exported if the meeting policy allows copying or exporting of Copilot responses and will respect the sensitivity label of the meeting (sensitivity labels are available to Teams Premium customers).

summary for non-techies**
Microsoft is introducing a feature for Microsoft 365 Copilot in Teams meetings by mid-2025, allowing users to export Copilot-generated responses directly to Word or Excel, while respecting meeting policies and sensitivity labels.
Direct effects for Operations**
Data Security Risks
The ability to export Copilot responses to Word or Excel without prior user training may lead to unintentional sharing of sensitive information, especially if users are unaware of the meeting policies and sensitivity labels.
