We are introducing feature access management in Viva Learning for admin features. Global Admin and Knowledge Admin can delegate admin feature access to non-admin users via M365 groups.
When this will happen:
If you are working with a partner, we are adding capabilities for your partner to better secure and manage your tenant on your behalf using Microsoft 365 Lighthouse. This will happen through the addition of a new service plan, “Microsoft 365 Lighthouse (Plan 1)” being added to one or more of your subscriptions.
When this will happen:
Teams Walkie is enabling users to pin/favorite up to five channels on the Microsoft Teams Walkie Talkie Home Page. Users can easily switch in between the favorited channels with a single tap going forward.

Introducing the reminders window. This reminders window is a new notification style for the New Outlook for Windows preview. It is a pop-out window that organizes your meeting/event reminders and task reminders in one place. You can also snooze reminders, dismiss reminders, or join Teams meetings directly from the window.
Here is how users can enable this reminder window:
We are delighted to introduce the new Insights Report feature for information barriers in SharePoint and OneDrive. With new insights reports, SharePoint or Global administrators can generate standardized reports to discover and take actions to further reinforce the IB policies on SharePoint sites and OneDrive accounts in their tenant.
This capability is available for public preview for all organizations (IBv1 (legacy) and IBv2 architecture).
We’re making changes to Microsoft Search. This update will allow Microsoft Search administrators to change result layouts for select SharePoint content using adaptive cards with Result Type feature in Microsoft Search administration.
The default result layouts for SharePoint sites, pages, list items and Portable document format (PDF) results can now be replaced with layouts built using adaptive cards. The changes can be made for Organization level search applicable to Office.com and SharePoint home.
Viva Topics provides a central knowledge base for manually created topics and definitions inside apps like Viva Engage. These topics don’t use Viva Topics’ AI, topic cards, or pages, but can be selected to classify conversations and posts in Viva Engage.
With this release, we are providing a way for Viva Engage admins to edit, create, and delete these “simple” topics without Viva licensing as a way to make knowledge management more accessible to more users. Please visit the ‘Manage topics’ page via the URL below:
Microsoft Teams admins will soon be able to capture and redirect requests for external collaboration in shared channels. This update of Microsoft Teams will be rolling out on Teams admin center, Microsoft Teams Desktop and Web, and will provide a way for organizations to capture and redirect requests for external collaboration when users attempt to add an external member to a shared channel where B2B direct connect cross-tenant trust has not been mutually configured between the two organizations.
We will be enabling Dynamic Emergency calling support for Teams Web. This will allow users to manually add an address on the web client before dialing the 911 call. Since this is critical functionality, we will be releasing this functionality as soon as possible.
When this will happen:
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.
I've been working with Microsoft Technologies over the last ten years, mainly focused on creating collaboration and productivity solutions that drive the adoption of Microsoft Modern Workplace.
