Effected Workload

  • Microsoft Search
  • Outlook
  • SharePoint
  • Teams
  • Yammer

When this will happen

We expect for this rollout to begin in early January (previously early December) and to be fully completed in mid-May (previously late April).

How this will affect your organization

Users will now be able to search for Teams and Outlook messages from their favorite workplace search endpoints (SharePoint and Office.com). Results will be limited to conversations that they were part of and conversations that took place in groups and teams that they have access to. These search results will surface in a separate ‘Conversations’ vertical.

What you need to do to prepare

You might want to notify your users about this new capability and update your training and documentation as appropriate.
