Microsoft 365 Copilot: Updated Copilot Notebooks overview page experience

Introduction

We’re introducing a redesigned Overview page experience in Microsoft 365 Copilot Notebooks. The updated Overview page will provide an AI-generated summary of notebook content and will surface key insights and suggested actions, making it easier for users to understand, navigate, and take action on information in their notebooks without manually reviewing all content.

When this will happen

• Frontier: We will begin rolling out in early April 2026 and expect to complete by late April 2026.
• General Availability (Worldwide, GCC, GCCH and DoD): We will begin rolling out in late April 2026 and expect to complete by late May 2026.
