Copilot for Microsoft 365: Direct connection to Microsoft SharePoint organization asset libraries

Microsoft Copilot for Microsoft 365 now supports direct searches and downloads from SharePoint organization asset libraries for brand-approved content. Rollout starts mid-August 2024, with completion by early September 2024. Tenant admins must prepare by identifying brand content and using a new cmdlet for library consent. Using a Microsoft SharePoint organization asset library as a tenant-based brand asset source, Microsoft Copilot for Microsoft 365 in Microsoft PowerPoint and Microsoft Word is now able to search and download brand-approved images, logos, icons, and illustrations directly from the chat experience. This new feature enables an on-brand Copilot for Microsoft 365 experience and provides a new creative content source beyond the licensed stock images already available today. This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 406170. When this will happen:  General Availability (Worldwide): We will begin rolling out mid-August 2024 and expect to complete by early September 2024. How this will affect your organization: To use this feature in Copilot for Microsoft 365, tenants can either use existing SharePoint image-based organization asset libraries or create new ones. Tenant admins will need to use a new cmdlet in the management shell to identify the targeted organization asset library and provide consent for Copilot for Microsoft 365 to search from the library.  What you need to do to prepare: In advance, tenant admins should proactively reach out to their brand team to identify brand content for use in Copilot for Microsoft 365. This content and associated metadata will need to be migrated to the identified organization asset library. Content should include associated image tags and metadata in order for Copilot for Microsoft 365 to provide accurate and relevant search results. If your tenant is already using organization asset libraries with approved content already present, the only admin action will be running the new cmdlet in the management shell that sets the drive ID.
