Copilot in SharePoint: Empowering Developers, Accelerating Workflows Microsoft is steadily integrating AI into the modern workplace, and Copilot in SharePoint is one of the examples of how technology is helping us work smarter. Since the official rollout in 2023, one question has become the central "How does Copilot change the way we build SharePoint solutions?" How Copilot Empowers Developers? Copilot is all about content creation and discoverability. It can * Draft site pages * Suggest layout ideas * Generate summaries * Reformat content with prompts However, it doesn’t replace information architecture or governance, but it helps users create pages and sites faster, with less reliance on IT. For developers, this means: * More focus on structured metadata - Because good input gives good AI output. * New extension points for workflows, business data, and pipelines. * Stronger governance requirements to protect permissions & compliance. Why Developers can Count on this Integration? * Copilot boosts productivity - PMs can spin up sites, templates, or content blocks in minutes. * Developers are freed from routine tasks and can focus on higher-value areas, like information architecture, integrations, and business logic. How to Ensure a Smart and Secure Adoption? Like any powerful tool, Copilot delivers its best when paired with the right foundation. Developers play a key role in shaping that foundation by: * Designing robust metadata models * Enforcing standardized templates * Implementing role-based access with sensitivity labels With these practices in place, Copilot becomes a true process accelerator, helping teams move faster while maintaining consistency and security. In short, Copilot in SharePoint isn’t just about speed. It’s a call for developers to rethink how AI will shape the future of collaboration platforms. What do you think of this integration?

As someone who lives and breathes content I’m always watching Microsoft’s updates closely — especially for SharePoint. Here are some recent enhancements that excite me — and how I see them aligning with what we do: 🔍 What’s New in SharePoint 1)Modernized Site Header & Footer Customization- You now have more control over visuals: background images, overlay colours, font options, and flexible footer alignment. Makes branding & navigation consistent and polished. 2) SharePoint Agents & AI-Enhancements- SharePoint agents let you build knowledge agents tied to content, with governance built in. Also tighter integration with Copilot and Teams. These are powerful for knowledge discovery, efficiency 3) New Analytics & Improved Engagement Metrics- Features like “estimated read time” for news posts, better metrics such as click-through-rates in page analytics, and improved visibility into AI model operations (like document translation & metadata autofill) are being rolled out. These help us understand content UX, user engagement, and where to focus. 4) Security & Lifecycle Enhancements There are updates around site lifecycle and compliance (site attestation), as well as better controls for permissions, reports on usage, and evolving policy around SharePoint Server (security updates, etc.). are you using this? #KnowledgeManagement #SharePoint #PowerBI #Agile #Leadership #DigitalWorkplace #AI #ContentStrategy

💡 Is #SharePoint being killed by #Dataverse, #PowerPlatform, or #Teams? The short answer: No. The reality: They complement, not compete. 🔹 SharePoint Still the backbone of Microsoft 365 for document management, intranets, compliance, and structured content. Even Teams files live in SharePoint. 🔹 Teams Not a replacement, but a front door. It’s where collaboration happens—chat, calls, meetings, and quick file access—while SharePoint powers the content behind it. 🔹 Power Platform (Power Apps, Power Automate, Power BI, Power Pages) Not a SharePoint killer, but an enabler. It replaced legacy SharePoint tools like InfoPath & Designer workflows, and extends SharePoint with apps, automation, and analytics. 🔹 Dataverse Not here to replace SharePoint, but to manage relational and transactional business data at scale. SharePoint is great for content & collaboration; Dataverse is built for structured business applications. ✅ Conclusion: SharePoint isn’t dying—it’s evolving as part of Microsoft 365’s foundation. The real power comes when organizations use these tools together: - SharePoint for content - Teams for collaboration - Power Platform for innovation - Dataverse for business data 🔗 It’s not about “killing”—it’s about integration.

🚀 Thrilled to be among the early adopters of the new Knowledge Agent in SharePoint, now in Public Preview! In our AI and Collaboration Applications, I’ve been exploring how this AI-powered agent - especially with Autofill - can transform how we manage and surface content across our SharePoint sites. 🔍 The agent automatically enriches documents with metadata, making libraries smarter, more discoverable, and Copilot-ready. It’s a game-changer for content governance and knowledge findability. 💡 We’ve already started experimenting with use cases like CV matching, withe metadata enrichment using the Librarian agent and custom prompts. The results have been impressive - faster access to relevant content, improved search precision, and a noticeable boost in productivity. This is a big step forward in making enterprise knowledge truly work for us. 🔗 Learn more: https://lnkd.in/ghBgwCtA #SharePoint #KnowledgeAgent #Autofill #Microsoft365Copilot #DigitalTransformation #AIinAction #CollaborationTools
