Learn how Copilot extensions enhance collaboration within your team on Microsoft Teams

Microsoft is integrating Copilot, its AI assistant, into Teams app extensions for enhanced productivity. These Copilot-enabled extensions, identifiable by a Copilot logo in the Teams Store, can be easily accessed and utilized within Microsoft 365. Starting mid-September, users with a Copilot license can leverage these extensions for intuitive searching, querying, and prompt support. Benefits include automation of routine tasks, improved efficiency, and better collaboration. Identifying suitable extensions is simple through the Teams Store, where users can browse and install them. Enabling these extensions is possible through various methods like the Copilot chat plugin page, the right menu on Copilot chat, command invocation, the extension's chat tab, and the command line on the Copilot chat. To illustrate their capabilities, Microsoft highlights extensions like Microsoft Meetup for managing meetings, Priority Matrix for task management, Viva Goals for goal tracking, and Creately for collaborative diagramming. These extensions, when combined with specific prompts, streamline workflows and boost productivity, as demonstrated in the provided case studies.
