Details

Updated October 28, 2025: We have updated the timeline. Thank you for your patience. 

Introduction:

We're introducing version history in Microsoft 365 Copilot Pages to help users confidently refine their work. This feature allows users to view and restore previous versions of a page—whether changes were made manually, through Copilot, or collaboratively. This update supports transparency and control in content creation, aligning with customer feedback.

When this will happen:

  • Public Preview (Worldwide): Begins early October 2025 and completes by late October 2025.
  • General Availability (Worldwide): Begins late October 2025 and completes by early November 2025 (previously late October).

How this affects your organization:

Who is affected: Users with Entra ID (work or school) accounts who have access to Microsoft 365 Copilot Pages and underlying SharePoint or OneDrive storage. 

Note: A Microsoft 365 Copilot license is not required to use version history in Copilot Pages.

What will happen:

  • Users will be able to view and restore previous versions of Copilot pages:
  •  user settings

  • Version history will include changes made manually, via Copilot, or by collaborators.
  • The feature will be enabled by default.
  • No admin configuration is required.

Admin controls and licensing:

  • IT admins cannot disable version history for Copilot Pages.
  • Admins can manage how many versions are stored using existing versioning settings in the underlying SharePoint or OneDrive library.
  • Copilot Pages are configured to save up to 50 versions per file.
  • There are no Copilot Page-specific versioning controls today.
  • Version history is available to users with SharePoint or OneDrive storage—even if they do not have a Microsoft 365 Copilot license.
  • Copilot Pages are not currently available to personal Microsoft accounts (such as Microsoft 365 Personal or Family).

What you can do to prepare:

No action is required at this time.

You may choose to:

  • Communicate this change to helpdesk staff.
  • Update internal documentation if you reference Copilot Pages functionality.
  • Review training materials to ensure users are aware of the version history feature.
  • Review your SharePoint or OneDrive versioning settings if you want to adjust how many versions are retained.
