You can now schedule a meeting or event directly from an email thread, using Schedule with Copilot in the new Outlook for Windows and Outlook on the web. When this will happen:General Availability: We will begin rolling out in mid-August 2024 and expect to complete by late August 2024. This applies to enterprise users with Copilot licenses. How this will affect your organization:Copilot users will be able to schedule events directly from an email thread by clicking on the new Schedule with Copilot button in the Outlook toolbar.

The original email thread will be added as an attachment. Users can review Copilot's suggested agenda and summary. Once they insert it, they can edit it to add or change information before sending the invitation. Schedule with Copilot is available in the new Outlook for Windows and Outlook on the web. It is not yet available on Outlook for Mac or Outlook mobile apps. Note: the toolbar may look different per tenant or user settings. What you need to do to prepare:There is nothing you need to do to prepare for this release. This feature is included for all Copilot licensed users in the new Outlook for Windows and Outlook on the web. |
