(Updated) Quick Access Teams and Sharepoint Document Libraries in win32 backstage MC432475 · Published Sep 16, 2022 · Last updated Jul 6, 2023

Updated July 5, 2023: We have updated the rollout timeline below. Thank you for your patience.

Currently, users experience some frustration when using Office products because of all different routes that they must use to access all their content. The Quick Access feature will allow users to access shared libraries from both their SharePoint and Teams locations. When the user opens files from shared libraries, these libraries will show up in the form of a list which will encourage users to save and open files to these libraries with ease. This helps deliver a more consistent, coherent storage location experience across M365 apps. This new backstage experience won’t show up in Teams, SharePoint, or OneDrive but does include storage locations from OneDrive and Teams (sites/channels) which are stored on SharePoint.

Targeted Release: We will begin rolling out late June (previously late April) and expect to complete by late July (previously late May).

Standard Release: We will begin rolling out mid-July (previously late June) and expect to complete by mid-August (previously late July).

Update to the Free LinkedIn Courses Available in Viva Learning MC630310 · Published Jul 7, 2023

As part of the Viva Learning integration with LinkedIn, Microsoft provides free content in Viva Learning that can be accessed by any Viva Learning user without the need for a LinkedIn premium license. As part of this partnership, we are increasing the set of free courses to the Global Skilling Initiative catalog which consists of more than 300 courses. This will replace the existing catalog of 125 free LinkedIn courses available in Viva Learning.

You can find more details on the Global Skilling Initiative program here.

We will begin rollout in early July 2023 and expect rollout to be complete by mid-July 2023.

 

(Updated) Microsoft Viva: Auto-Categorization Coming to Meeting Category Insights in Viva Insights MC546939 · Published Apr 26, 2023 · Last updated Jul 6, 2023

Updated July 5, 2023: We have updated the rollout timeline below. Thank you for your patience.

Meeting category insights in the Viva Insights app helps Viva Insights licensed users understand how they are allocating their time across meeting categories. Today, the feature uses the categories manually assigned by users in Outlook and Teams. In an upcoming update, meeting category insights will begin automatically categorizing meetings for users based on meeting size, cadence, and number of people in the meetings. Categories include:

  • Long meetings – More than 1 hour long and 0-8 invitees
  • Large meetings – At least 9 invitees and at most 1 hour long
  • Large and long meetings – At least 9 invitees and more than 1 hour long
  • Recurring meetings – Meeting series with multiple instances
  • 1:1 meetings – Include 1 other participant

These categories can help users identify meetings that are expensive in terms of time spent, participants included, or both. Using these insights, users can assess whether meetings that fall under this category are a valuable use of time and resources as a step towards doing more with less.

Categorizations will show up in Viva Insights only and will not reflect in Outlook or Teams calendar.

With this update, users who are not currently categorizing in Outlook or Teams will be able to access meeting category insights and begin developing an understanding of how their meeting time is being spent. Users who are already categorizing will receive additional insights about their meeting time allocation according to well-known meeting attributes.

We will begin rolling out in early July (previously late June) and complete rollout by late July (previously mid-July).
