Unblock Copilot by switching into and enabling Cloud updates for Current channel in Microsoft 365 Apps Admin Center

Admins can now unblock access to Microsoft 365 Copilot on licensed devices by activating Current Channel Profiles in Cloud Updates in the Microsoft 365 Apps admin center. Admins can switch the update channel for their devices or AAD Groups in Inventory by clicking 'Show all devices' under Data Insights. They can then click the 'Switch Device Update Channel' link over the Device Schema and pick a targeted channel and devices/AAD groups in the flyout and click 'Move Devices'. Within 24 hours, the devices will reflect in the targeted channels in Inventory and will continue to receive updates from the internet. Cloud Updates offers an 'Enable Cloud' button on the home dashboard of Microsoft 365 Apps Admin Center, which activates profiles for Current channel and/or Monthly Enterprise Channel (if not already active) in about 30 minutes. All the 'Tenant Settings' in the Overview Page of Cloud Updates, such as 'Exclude Groups' and 'Exclusion Window', will be applicable across all active profiles. By following the steps outlined in this tutorial, admins can allow their Copilot users to access Copilot capabilities. For more details, check out the 'How-to' videos provided.
