Message ID: MC1239186

[Introduction]

We are introducing a new handoff experience that allows users to take content created in Copilot Pages and seamlessly continue authoring as a SharePoint news post. This update helps users move from ideation to publishing more efficiently.

[When this will happen:]

General Availability (Worldwide, GCC): We will begin rolling out on late May 2026 and expect to complete by mid-June 2026.

[How this affects your organization]

• Organizations using Microsoft 365 Copilot with SharePoint Online

What will happen:

• Users can move content from Copilot Pages directly into a SharePoint News post.
• A new SharePoint option will appear under the Create button in Copilot Pages:

  

• Selecting SharePoint opens the content in SharePoint News for continued editing and publishing.
• The feature is enabled by default.
• Existing SharePoint permissions, policies, and governance controls are respected.
• There is no disruption to existing SharePoint News workflows.

[What you can do to prepare]

No specific action is required. You may consider:
