Summary

Starting late March to April 2026, Microsoft 365 Copilot app will allow admins to add a branded footer with their organization's logo, confirming a trusted Copilot environment. This feature is off by default, requires admin setup via the Microsoft 365 admin center, and affects all tenants using the app.

Details

Introduction

We’re introducing a new co-branding capability that will allow organizations to display a branded footer at the bottom of the Chat screen in the Microsoft 365 Copilot app. This update will enable admins to add their organization’s logo to their users’ Microsoft 365 Copilot app, helping users confirm they are using their trusted, work-managed Copilot experience.

This feature will begin rolling out in March 2026 and is expected to complete by late April 2026.

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 555852.

When this will happen

  • General Availability (Worldwide): Rollout will begin in late March 2026 and is expected to complete by late April 2026.

How this will affect your organization

Who is affected

  • All Microsoft 365 tenants using the Microsoft 365 Copilot app.

What will happen

  • Admins will be able to upload a logo in the Microsoft 365 admin center to customize the footer in the Microsoft 365 Copilot app.
  • The footer will display an “Approved by Logo” indicator to help users confirm they are in an organization-approved Copilot environment: 

    user settings

  • Only the logo from your organization’s theme configuration will be used; other theme elements will not be applied in this release.
  • This feature will be off by default and will require admin configuration.
  • There will be no user impact unless an admin enables the footer.

What you can do to prepare

No action will be required unless you want to enable the branded footer.

Admins who want to configure this feature should:

  • Review and verify your organization’s theme configuration in the Microsoft 365 admin center.
  • Upload the logo you want to display in the Microsoft 365 Copilot app footer once rollout begins.
  • Use the existing theme management flow to apply co-branding once the feature is available.
