Summary:
In November 2024, Microsoft will introduce the "Allow web search in Copilot" policy, enabling separate management of web searches in Microsoft 365 Copilot from other optional connected experiences. This policy allows for improved Copilot responses using Bing search service and can be configured at the user/group level.
