Introduction
Find meetings and everything connected to them in seconds with Calendar Search in Microsoft 365 Copilot. This feature makes it effortless to locate any meeting, even if you only remember a few details. Just type what comes to mind, like “last week’s design review,” “budget sync with marketing,” or “next quarterly planning session,” and Copilot instantly finds the right event.
Copilot doesn’t just show you the meeting invite. It brings together the full context: who attended, what was discussed, what files were shared, and what follow-ups were assigned. Whether you're preparing for an upcoming meeting or trying to recall what was decided in a past one, Copilot gives you a complete, connected view—all from a single search bar.

How this will affect your organization
- Find any meeting in seconds, even from fuzzy memory. Users can search naturally (e.g., “last week’s design review,” “budget sync with marketing,” “next quarterly planning session”) and immediately surface the right event.
- See the full picture in one place. Beyond the invite, Copilot Search brings together who attended, what was discussed, files shared, and follow‑ups captured, making both meeting prep and post‑meeting recall dramatically faster.
- Less time hunting, more time doing. Teams spend fewer cycles digging through mail, calendars, and chats. Because results are tenant‑aware and permission‑trimmed by default, employees only see what they’re already allowed to see.
What you need to do to prepare
- Confirm licensing and availability
- Calendar search is part of Microsoft 365 Copilot Search. If users have the appropriate Copilot licenses assigned, the experience is enabled—no additional setup required.
- Validate data governance and privacy settings
- Ensure your existing Microsoft 365 protections (Sensitivity labels, DLP, retention, eDiscovery) align with how you want meeting content (invites, chats, transcripts, shared files) to be discoverable in search. Copilot Search adheres to Microsoft 365 Copilot security.
- If your organization uses Teams meeting transcription or recording, verify those policies and retention settings so that transcripts and recordings are available (or excluded) per policy.
