  • Are we going to be able to share Loop externally when we apply Sensitivity Label? Sorry if I missed the announcement..

      Hi Serge, thanks for your question. I'll answer in two parts:

       

      1. When will Loop support guest access / external sharing?

      This is available today for companies that do not use sensitivity labels. For companies that use labels, support for sensitivity labels on Workspaces is coming very soon (in the coming weeks). Once available, you will be able to collaborate with guests.

       

      2. Can you share externally when we apply sensitivity labels?

      This depends on the label. The label will determine who you can share with, whether the file is encrypted, etc. Just like how it behaves for Word, Excel, PowerPoint files.

    Is it possible for users to work around these switches by downloading the loop file from a tenant that has it active and upload it to OneDrive/SPO in a tenant that has these settings disabled?

      Hi Matt, thanks for your question! If you have access to a .loop file, you can open it in the Loop app. if you want to prevent access to .loop files entirely in a particular tenant, we recommend using Conditional Access Policies to prevent the Loop experience from opening at all.
  • Review dancontoso (aka, Dan Costenaro)'s full post, "Copilot pages for IT Admins - Sep 2024 update" | Copilot Pages are also .loop files and Dan's blog articulates everything you'd want to know and learn as an IT admin to best understand how Copilot Pages work and what it means for their organization. 

    Copilot Pages are default enabled in your tenant (like all Loop integrations). The diagram shows the existing controls and highlights the new Copilot Pages control.

      Looking forward to Copilot Pages rolling out... Still not seeing it in our production environment... Anyone got this yet?
  • Is there an estimated timeline on when tenant- or group-owned workspaces will be available in GCC tenants? Not seeing that on the M365 roadmap.

      Hi Michael, thanks for your question. We are actively planning to bring Loop app with workspaces to GCC, but we don't have timelines to share to the M365 Roadmap at this time. Loop Components are now available for GCC.
  • If you have a question or feedback for the Microsoft Loop team during this session, please post it as a comment below. They will be responding during the webinar, with some questions addressed on air toward the end of the session.
