Fix to respect Cloud Policy settings for
Auto-create Loop workspaces for Teams meetings feature MC929040
Published Nov 8, 2024
We previously announced the release of a
feature in Teams via a Message Center post: MC792605 - Microsoft Teams:
Auto-create Microsoft Loop workspaces to share meeting content. We shared that
Teams meeting organizers of recurring meetings will be prompted in chat to
create a Loop workspace after their meeting is completed. The feature helps
users gather shared meeting content into a Loop workspace.
In response to your feedback, we are improving
the ability for you to control this feature through Microsoft 365 Cloud Policy.
Available now.

Viva – new message center posts:
Microsoft Viva Engage: Unregistered users in an
external network will not receive community emails MC928016
Published Nov 8, 2024
When an external network participant is invited
to join a Microsoft Viva Engage external network, they receive an invitation
email with an option to accept. Before this configuration change, all invited
external users receive community conversations and emails, even if their
invitation is in a pending or inactive state, allowing them to receive updates
without completing registration. An E5 license is required to use this feature.
After this change, pending or inactive users
will no longer receive community conversations or emails unless they accept the
invitation and complete the registration process. This change prioritizes
active engagement, ensuring only registered users access conversation updates
and reducing the volume of emails sent to non-registered users. External users
who have activated their accounts will receive conversations and community
emails.
We will begin rolling out this change early
December 2024 and expected to complete by early January 2025. Extensions
will not be provided for this configuration change.

Roadmap ID 464207.
Targeted Release: We will begin rolling out
mid-November 2024 and expect to complete by late November 2024.
General Availability (Worldwide): We will begin
