As you know, Microsoft Teams changed entirely after the arrival of Copilot. Teams are the best platform for meetings and collaboration, and the Copilot capabilities empower the user’s abilities. Copilot Highlights from the Past 7 Days Prompts efficiently locate information from chat.
There are many prompts available to access information on this feature. With these features, you can avoid manual scrolling and searching on chat to find content from your Teams chat. Remember that users only use this feature on Teams when you activate Copilot in your chat.
In your prompts, you can use time-based phrases like “yesterday,” “last month,” “6 months ago,” or ” December 2023.” This blog post will help you explore time-based prompts in Microsoft Chat. I will provide a step-by-step guide for using this feature.
