| Power Apps – Deprecation of Maker Copilot in canvas appsCategory:Power AppsNummer:MC1183604Status:stayInformed | We are announcing the deprecation of the Edit your app with Copilot in Power Apps Studio (preview) in canvas apps. The deprecation will begin on January 6, 2026, and will remove the Maker Copilot chat sidecar (accessed by a Copilot button entry point in the header) from the Canvas App studio. How does this affect me? The Maker Copilot header button will be removed from the Canvas App studio. Makers will no longer be able to invoke Copilot from the header sidecar or via shortcut/URL. App creation, editing, and publishing will continue to function normally. No existing apps will be impacted. What do I need to do to prepare? No action is required. This change is limited to the Maker Copilot chat sidecar entry point. Users can continue to use other Maker and publishing workflows without interruption and continue to create new apps conversationally using the Copilot in Table Designer, and Plan Designer. |
| Rate my call feedback experience update in Microsoft TeamsCategory:Microsoft TeamsNummer:MC1183608Status:stayInformed | [Introduction] The Rate My Call survey is a feedback screen that the Teams client will occasionally present to users after their Teams call or meeting has completed. Currently, the rating presents 1-5 stars on the first page and a list of potential issues (called problem tokens) on the second page. We will be rolling out a new streamlined feedback experience for Teams on Windows, Mac, and Web that presents the feedback on a single screen with a thumbs up / thumbs down rating system and problem tokens for the user to select, plus an area to provide details. In testing, we found higher feedback returns with this new design, and clearer insights into call quality issues. Screenshot 1: New Rate My Call User Interface [When this will happen:]
Who is affected: Users of Microsoft Teams on Windows desktop, Mac, and Web clients What will happen:
[Compliance considerations:] No compliance considerations identified, review as appropriate for your organization. [FAQ]Q: Will a higher PCR mean calls are worse? Q: What is the new PCR target or threshold for your workstreams? |

This enhancement allows users to reach subject matter experts via dial-in and seamlessly bring them into the broader conversation. This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 518218.

| Action Required to Enable Extended Security Update for local devices accessing Windows 365Category:WindowsNummer:MC1183612Status:planForChange | Windows 10 devices accessing Windows 365 Enterprise Cloud PCs and Windows 365 Frontline (Dedicated) Cloud PCs are automatically entitled to Windows 10 Extended Security Updates (ESU) under certain conditions. IT administrators must use Microsoft Intune or another MDM provider to deploy a custom policy that helps verify whether a device is enrolled in the Windows 10 ESU subscription program. Action is required in order for these devices to install the upcoming November 2025 Windows security update, which will be available on November 11, 2025. Learn more about this change at Enable Windows 10 Extended Security Updates (ESU) for clients accessing cloud and virtual machines. When will this happen: The upcoming November 2025 Windows security update will be available on November 11, 2025. It’s necessary to take action prior to this date, in order for devices to be eligible for this update. Entitlement to ESU is available for qualifying devices any time, however, we advise taking action prior to November 11 in order to receive this month’s update and remain protected. How this will affect your organization: Windows 10 devices accessing Windows 365 Enterprise Cloud PCs and Windows 365 Frontline Cloud PCs in dedicated mode are automatically entitled to ESU for the duration of the ESU offer if the user has an active Windows 365 Enterprise license assigned or Windows 365 Frontline Cloud PC in dedicated mode provisioned, provided the following conditions are met:
Please also note the following:
What you need to do to prepare: Ensure that the Windows 10 devices across your organization meet the above requirements in order to continue to be protected under the ESU offering. We advise taking action prior to November 11 in order to remain protected. See the Additional information section for details and resources. Additional information:

| Power Automate – HTTP and Teams webhook trigger flows are moving to new URLsCategory:Power PlatformNummer:MC1183710Status:stayInformed | As of August 2025, Power Automate flows and Agent flows (Copilot Studio) with HTTP triggers or Teams Webhook triggers that have logic.azure.com in the URL moved to a new URL as a part of a critical infrastructure upgrade to improve execution speed and provide new features. How does this affect me? Users can see the new URL in the HTTP URL field of the flow’s trigger when loading the flow in the designer. Beginning November 30, 2025, the logic.azure.com URL will no longer work- meaning the flows will not trigger when invoked from external systems. What action do I need to take? To ensure that existing flows using HTTP or Teams Webhook triggers continue to work, complete the actions mentioned in this documentation by November 30, 2025. Prior to this date, both the old and new URLs will be supported. If no action is taken before this date to update flow triggers to the new URL, users will experience failures triggering these flows as the old URL will no longer work. |
