Overview
What Microsoft Teams is
Teams provides the meeting and conversation context around Microsoft 365 collaboration. Copilot can summarize discussion and suggest action items where enabled. Availability depends on organizational policy, meeting settings, and licenses, and some after-meeting experiences require transcription.
For a first workflow, confirm the organization’s Copilot and transcription policy. Run the meeting using the enabled assistance and recording controls. Check names, decisions, and action owners against the actual discussion.
