Insights into AI spend (Copilot credit usage) at a group or team level will be available in Viva Insights as a dashboard and in Advanced insights. The services in scope of this release are Cowork and Work IQ API. The dashboard experience is available to managers with at least 5 direct reports (scoped access), the Insights analysts, and Global administrators and is enabled by default to ensure immediate access to usage-based cost insights. For users to be able to use Cowork or WorkIQ API, your tenant must have usage-based billing setup via Cost Management in the Microsoft 365 admin center. Leader access to tenant-wide data is out of scope for this release. The same insights will be available for Insights Analysts and Global Administrators in Advanced Insights.

A new admin control in the People Skills settings lets administrators permanently remove their organization's People Skills data from the tenant. With this new control, organizations can delete their entire skills library along with all users confirmed, inferred, and imported skills data—giving them full control to offboard from People Skills in support of data governance and compliance needs.
Once deletion is initiated, skills will no longer appear on user profile cards or be used across Microsoft 365 skills-based experiences such as Copilot and Viva. The control is admin-only with no automatic changes.

Feature description: Model Context Protocol (MCP) based agents in Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat will now be able to surface rich, interactive UI widgets directly within chat. This enhancement enables developers to deliver more engaging and structured agent interactions. Users will experience these widgets when interacting with agents that implement them, and admins will continue to manage these agents through the Microsoft 365 Admin Center.
In developmentMicrosoft Copilot (Microsoft 365)
We’re introducing support for Model Context Protocol (MCP)-based agents in Microsoft 365 Copilot . This update enables developers to build Copilot agents using MCP servers and allows users to interact with these agents using familiar experiences. This change supports extensibility and improves agent capabilities for organizations.
In developmentMicrosoft Copilot (Microsoft 365)
Declarative Agents with Actions enable Microsoft 365 Copilot to take real-world actions by invoking APIs, plugins, and enterprise workflows directly within the chat experience. Using custom actions, declarative agents can call external systems, execute operations, and retrieve or update data, moving beyond Q&A to full task completion. These actions are powered through API plugins, MCP tools, and enterprise connectors, allowing seamless integration with line-of-business applications and services. The Copilot platform dynamically reasons over available actions and selects the appropriate tool to fulfill user intent, enabling multi-step workflows such as creating records, submitting requests, or triggering business processes within a single conversational flow
