| MC937709: Facilitator in Teams Meetings and Chats |
| More Information |
|---|
The Facilitator is a new agent in Microsoft 365. This agent works within Teams meetings and chats for more effective collaboration. This new agent is available in public preview and customers are required to have a Microsoft 365 Copilot license to access the public preview.
When this will happen:Targeted Release (Worldwide): We will begin rolling out in mid-November 2024 and expect to complete by late November 2024. How this will affect your organization:Facilitator will only be available to users that have app permission policy for Microsoft apps set to "Allow all apps". The Facilitator App will become available soon for Admins to see and manage in Teams admin center. Users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license can enable the AI notes in meetings and group chats. Meetings scheduled through Teams will have an option to turn on "AI-generated notes" in the meeting scheduling form. AI Notes are auto enabled for newly created group chats with the option to remove upon chat creation or any time thereafter. For meetings where Facilitator is enabled, real time AI-generated notes and tasks will be added to the meeting notes page and show up in recap under the Notes tab. Participants with intelligent recap access will also see the post-meeting AI generated content in the AI Summary tab (previously labeled AI notes). For chats, AI notes can be accessed via an entry point in the chat header. Users in the meeting can see and collaborate on shared notes: After the meeting, the recap experience will show the AI-generated notes are in the Notes tab: AI-generated notes will generate in the side panel: What you need to do to prepare:Facilitator app will be turned on by default unless all apps are blocked by your organization. However, as an admin, you control whether Facilitator will be available to your entire organization or to a certain group of users. Facilitator and Microsoft 365 are built on Microsoft's comprehensive approach to security, compliance, and privacy. As a part of the security promise, you can discover, protect, and govern AI interactions with Facilitator through Microsoft Purview. Microsoft Purview Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) for AI helps IT and security teams proactively discover and manage data risks. Use DSPM for AI in conjunction with other Microsoft Purview capabilities such as Audit, eDiscovery, and Data Lifecycle Management to ensure data security and compliance for your organization.
