Details:
As communicated in MC862983, Microsoft Copilot with enterprise data protection is available to users who sign in with an Entra account. Starting early November 2024, Copilot Pages will become available for Microsoft Copilot users when signed in with an Entra account. This feature was previously only available for users with a paid Microsoft 365 Copilot license. Pages will be enabled by default and admin controls are available should you need to control the experience differently within your tenant.
Note: In September 2024, Pages started to roll out for Microsoft 365 Copilot users in Work mode of Business Chat (MC890882). This update will also roll out Pages to Web mode in Business Chat for Microsoft 365 Copilot users.
Note: Copilot Pages will only be available in Microsoft Copilot for users signed in with an Entra account who have an underlying SharePoint license.
[When this will happen:]
General Availability (Worldwide): We will begin rolling out Copilot Pages in early November 2024 and expect to complete by late November 2024.
