Summary:
Microsoft 365 Copilot (Premium) will integrate Teams meeting content—transcripts, chats, and shared files—into Copilot Notebooks, enhancing context-based insights. Rolling out from April to May 2026, it respects existing permissions and governance, requires no admin setup, and is enabled by default for licensed users.
Details:
[Introduction]
Meetings as references in Copilot Notebooks bring Microsoft Teams meeting content into the notebook experience, enabling users to ground Copilot on the discussions, decisions, and context that drive their work. By adding meetings as knowledge sources, users can connect transcripts, notes, chats, and shared content directly to their projects-enriching notebooks beyond files alone and improving downstream outputs such as presentations and briefs. This enhances productivity and decision-making by connecting conversational context with existing documents, while continuing to respect existing access controls and organizational data governance policies. Available in Copilot Notebooks for licensed Microsoft 365 Copilot (Premium) users.
[When this will happen:]
Public Preview (Worldwide): We began rolling out in late April 2026 and expect to complete by mid-May 2026.
General Availability (Worldwide): We will begin rolling out in mid-May 2026 and expect to complete by late May 2026.
