We are announcing the Process Mining thin client app for Power Automate Process Mining. This app includes the same features as the previous Process Mining desktop app but allows you to run process mining operations without the need to download the process model to your computer. This app will reach general availability on March 1, 2025, and will be enabled automatically.
We are announcing the Ingest files from Fabric OneLake feature for Power Automate Process Mining. This feature enables the ingestion of data files in CSV, parquet, and delta-parquet format from Fabric OneLake. This feature will reach general availability on March 1, 2025.
We are announcing the Agent Builder in Copilot Chat feature for Copilot Studio. This feature enables pay-as-you-go agents for the existing free chat experience for Microsoft 365 commercial users. This feature will reach general availability on February 18, 2025.
We are announcing the SharePoint as a knowledge source for generative answers feature. When a user asks a question and the agent doesn’t have a topic to use for an answer, this feature allows the agent to search the SharePoint URL and all subpaths, and generative answers will summarize this content into a targeted response. This feature will reach general availability on February 28, 2025.
Users will be able to summarize files with Summarize for me using Microsoft Copilot within one-on-one or group Microsoft Teams chats. This feature will work on common file types like Word and PDF initially, and other file formats will be added over time. This summarization respects the file’s security policies, ensuring that only users with access to the file receive a summary, which will carry the same sensitivity label as the original file. A Microsoft 365 Copilot license is required to use this feature.
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 418564.
Before this rollout, users can apply a sensitivity label to a non-Office file or a PDF file in Microsoft Windows to apply protection that encapsulates the file into a .pfile file type that can verify user authorization and rights on the file. A user who needs to modify and collaborate with others on a .pfile can use Microsoft Purview Information protection (MPIP) to remove the label and protection on the .pfile, make changes, and then reapply the label and protection to the updated file.
After this rollout, Microsoft Purview Endpoint Data Loss Prevention (EDLP) will be able to simplify and protect the collaboration experience in managed Windows devices in conjunction with the MPIP client. Non-Office files and PDF files stored on managed devices will be labeled while retaining their original file types to allow a user to modify and update the file on their device. When a user copies and uploads a labeled file to a destination external to their Windows device, EDLP will help enforce the rights protection by converting the file to a .pfile for secure sharing to other users. If the other users are also protected with EDLP, they can use MPIP to remove the label on the shared files before collaborating.
