Summary:
Microsoft is separating Copilot retention policies from Teams chats, allowing admins to create distinct retention policies for Copilot interactions. This change requires a Microsoft 365 Copilot license and will be available in Public Preview from mid-November 2024, with General Availability starting mid-January 2025.
Details:
Before this rollout, Microsoft Teams chat and Microsoft 365 Copilot interactions are available together to be included or excluded in the Microsoft Purview Data Lifecycle Management policy in the Purview compliance center.
After this rollout, admins can have separate policies for Copilot interactions. Also, admins can separate Teams chat from Copilot interactions to create new retention policies for Copilot messages only.
A Microsoft 365 Copilot license is required to use this feature.
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 407897.
