Microsoft held their flagship event for IT developers, Microsoft Build, on May 21 – 23, 2024. If you missed the event, you can catch up on all the news and announcements found here Microsoft Build 2024 Book of News.
The Microsoft 365 Modern Work updates start at Section 4 and covers all the exciting new features such as Fluid Framework, SharePoint Embedded, and Microsoft Teams Premium.
Several updates in Microsoft Teams and Microsoft Loop are designed to help people, including developer teams, collaborate more effectively. These updates include:
- Custom emojis and reactions in Teams will allow users to express themselves more creatively and authentically with the ability to upload their own emojis or reactions. Once uploaded, custom emojis will only be visible within the user’s tenant. IT admins will be able to decide who has permission to create custom emojis, delete custom emojis or turn off the capability altogether. This update will be in preview next month.
- Slash commands in the compose box: Teams users will be able to access slash (/) commands directly in the compose box to take contextual actions or compose, navigate and complete frequent tasks. Instead of taking multiple actions, users will be able to type slash (/) in the compose box, select a command and complete the task. This update is in preview.
Take some time to review all the announcements on Azure, Copilot at Work, Edge, Microsoft 365, Power Platform, and Windows.
