OneDrive People View: Easily get to files shared by people with the new People view in OneDrive Web

Sometimes it can be hard to remember the name of a file or exactly when it was shared, but you know who shared it with you. Because of this, we’ve created an entirely new way to get back to your shared files both internal and external – organized by the people you work with! This view presents the people you have recently collaborated with, along with all the files that have been shared with you by each person.

Custom list templates can now include Power Automate flows

Even though they were just released, custom list templates are getting another boost! As part of our efforts to evolve Microsoft Lists and enable more users to take advantage of automations, admin users now have the option to create and deploy custom list templates that include pre-created Power Automate flows. When end users create a list from the deployed custom list template, they will also have the option to install any pre-created flows that are attached to that list template. You can use this feature to create a list + automation template that can be adopted by many teams across your organization.
