Message ID: MC950898
There is now the ability to forward loop components in Microsoft Teams. With the addition of loop component forwarding, users have a new way to share loop components across chats and channels. To forward a message containing a loop component, simply navigate to the more actions menu of any message containing a loop component and select forward. From there, the forward this message dialog will populate, which provides users with a preview of the message being forwarded, including the loop component. In this view, users will be able to give permissions to recipients of the loop component to ensure all recipients have access to the content.
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 469507.
[When this will happen:]
Targeted Release: We will begin rolling out in early January 2025 and expect to complete by mid-January 2025.
General Availability (Worldwide, GCC, GCC High, DoD): We will begin rolling out in late January 2025 and expect to complete by early February 2025.
[How this will affect your organization:]
Users will now have less restrictions when forwarding content. Previously, users were unable to forward messages that contained a loop component. With this improvement, no such restriction exists.
This update is available by default.
For additional information, see Forward a message in a Teams chat – Microsoft Support.
[What you need to do to prepare:]
This rollout will happen automatically with no admin action required. You may want to notify your users about this change and update any relevant documentation as appropriate.

The recent update to Microsoft Teams introducing the ability to forward loop components is a game changer for both admins and users alike! This enhancement not only streamlines communication but also opens the door to more collaborative opportunities.
For users, this means a significant reduction in restrictions when sharing content. No longer will you be left wondering how to pass along that brilliant loop component you just created. Simply click on the “more actions” menu, select “forward,” and voilà! With a preview of the message and the option to grant permissions, sharing your work has never been easier. It’s like having a magic wand that makes collaboration seamless—just don’t forget to wave it in the right direction!
Admins, on the other hand, will appreciate the simplicity of this rollout. With no action needed on their part, they can sit back and enjoy the benefits without the usual headaches associated with updates. However, a gentle reminder to inform users about this change could help maximize its impact. After all, an informed team is a productive team!
In terms of impact, I foresee this update being quite substantial. The ease of forwarding loop components could lead to enhanced teamwork and quicker decision-making processes. With more fluid communication, teams can focus on what really matters—getting the job done!
