M365 Changelog: (Updated) Draft with Copilot in Outlook for Windows

Summary

The message details the rollout of the "Draft with Copilot" feature in Outlook for Windows, which generates full-length email drafts from prompts. It will be available in March and April 2024 for Targeted Release users and requires a Copilot license. Organizations can prepare by updating to the latest build and managing licenses. Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID is 190937.

MC709658 – Updated April 15, 2024: Microsoft has updated the content below to reflect the correct build number. Thank you for your patience.

Draft with Copilot takes a user-supplied prompt and generates a potential full-length email. The user can then add the generated content to their email draft body or change the prompt or tone/length settings and generate a new one. This functionality will start rolling out for users in Targeted Release.

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 190937

When this will happen:

This functionality will be available in Current Channel (Build 16.0.17425.20174). It will gradually roll out during the month of March 2024 and April 2024, with MEC rolling out in May 2024.

How this will affect your organization:

The button to “Draft with Copilot” will show up automatically in the ribbon in Outlook for Windows if users are licensed for Copilot.

What you need to do to prepare:

Ensure that your users have a license for Copilot and are on the latest Targeted Release build in order to access this new functionality. If you do not wish users to have this function you can manage access by removing Copilot licenses from users as appropriate.
