description: "Learn about how Microsoft Copilot for Microsoft 365 works."
[Microsoft Copilot for Microsoft 365](/office365/servicedescriptions/office-365-platform-service-description/microsoft-365-copilot) is an AI-powered productivity tool that coordinates large language models (LLMs), content in Microsoft Graph, and the Microsoft 365 apps that you use every day, such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Teams, and others. This integration provides real-time intelligent assistance, enabling users to enhance their creativity, productivity, and skills.
-Microsoft Copilot for Microsoft 365 uses a combination of LLMs, a type of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm that uses deep learning techniques and vast data sets to understand, summarize, predict, and generate content. These LLMs include pre-trained models, such as Generative Pre-Trained Transformers (GPT) like GPT-4, designed to excel in these tasks.

-- **Microsoft 365 Chat** enables Microsoft Copilot for Microsoft 365 users to leverage cross-app intelligence, simplifying their workflow across multiple apps. Microsoft 365 Chat uses the power of the foundation LLMs, a user's organizational data, and a user's apps to generate a response. Microsoft 365 Chat is available in a range of experiences, including Teams (chat), Bing, Microsoft Edge, and the Microsoft 365 app.
+- **Microsoft Copilot with Graph-grounded chat** enables you to bring your work content and context to Microsoft Copilot's chat capabilities. With Graph-grounded chat, you can draft content, catch up on what you missed, and get answers to questions via open-ended prompts— all securely grounded in your work data. Use Graph-grounded Copilot at many surfaces, including within Microsoft Teams, at [Microsoft365.com](https://www.microsoft365.com/), and at [copilot.microsoft.com](https://copilot.microsoft.com/).
- **Microsoft Graph** has long been fundamental to Microsoft 365. It includes information about the relationships between users, activities, and your organization’s data. The Microsoft Graph API brings more context from customer signals into the prompt, such as information from emails, chats, documents, and meetings. For more information, see [Overview of Microsoft Graph](/graph/overview) and [Major services and features in Microsoft Graph](/graph/overview-major-services). -- **Semantic Index** for Copilot uses multiple LLMs that sit on top of Microsoft Graph to interpret user queries and produce sophisticated, meaningful, and multilingual responses that help you to be more productive. It allows you to search quickly through billions of vectors (mathematical representations of features or attributes) to help connect you with relevant and actionable information in your organization.

-The semantic index brings a whole new world of understanding to your data in Microsoft 365. Through enhanced interactions with your individual and company data via the Microsoft Graph, and the creation of a new index, the semantic index is an improvement to Microsoft 365 search that lays the foundation for the next generation of Search and Copilot experiences. The semantic index respects security and policies in the Microsoft Graph so that when a user issues a query either directly via search or in Microsoft 365 chat via Copilot, it's always in the security context of the user, and only content that a user has access to is returned.

security Mdo Email Entity Page https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/microsoft-365-docs/commits/public/microsoft-365/security/office-365-security/mdo-email-entity-page.md
Here are some helpful specifics to get started.
Admins can preview and download emails in Cloud mailboxes, ***if*** the mails are still accessible to Microsoft in an Exchange Online mailbox. In case of a soft delete (by an admin, or user), or ZAP (to quarantine), the emails are no longer present in the Exchange Online mailbox. In that case, admins won't be able to preview or download those specific emails. Emails that were dropped, or where delivery failed, never made it into the mailbox and as a result, admins won't be able to preview or download those emails either.

Remediation means to take a prescribed action against a threat. Malicious email sent to your organization can be cleaned up either by the system, through zero-hour auto purge (ZAP), or by security teams through remediation actions like *move to inbox*, *move to junk*, *move to deleted items*, *soft delete*, or *hard delete*. Microsoft Defender for Office 365 Plan 2/E5 enables security teams to remediate threats in email and collaboration functionality through manual and automated investigation.
-> [!NOTE]
-> To remediate malicious email, security teams need the *Search and Purge* role assigned to them. Role assignment is done through [permissions in the Microsoft Defender portal](mdo-portal-permissions.md).
- ## What you need to know before you begin
-Admins can take required action on emails, but to get those actions approved, they must have the *Search and Purge* role assigned to them in the **Email & collaboration** permissions in the Microsoft Defender portal. Without the *Search and purge"*role added to one of the role-groups, they won't be able to execute the action.
+- You need to be assigned permissions before you can do the procedures in this article. Admins can take the required action on email messages, but the **Search and Purge** role is required to get those actions approved. To assign the **Search and Purge** role, you have the following options:
+ - [Microsoft Defender XDR Unified role based access control (RBAC)](/microsoft-365/security/defender/manage-rbac) (Affects the Defender portal only, not PowerShell): **Security operations/Security data/Email advanced actions (manage)**.
+ - [Email & collaboration permissions in the Microsoft Defender portal](mdo-portal-permissions.md): Membership in the **Organization Management** or **Data Investigator** role groups. Or, you can [create a new role group](mdo-portal-permissions.md#create-email--collaboration-role-groups-in-the-microsoft-defender-portal) and add the **Search and Purge** role to it.
-Because email actions create automated investigations in the backend, you need to enable *Automated Investigation*. Go to **Settings** \> **Endpoints** \> **Advanced features** and turn on **Automated Investigation**.
+- Verify **Automated Investigation** is turned on at <https://security.microsoft.com/securitysettings/endpoints/integration>.

-The properties are identified from the files and pages that are part of the evidence the AI gathered for identifying the topic. Alternate names and acronyms are sourced from these files and pages. The short description is sourced from these files and pages, or from the internet through Wikipedia. The source file, page, or Wikipedia article is referenced alongside the suggested properties. People are suggested based on their active contributions (for example, edits) to the files and pages. A reference to the number of contributions from a particular person provides a hint as to why the person has been identified. Files, pages, and sites are ranked based on whether they're central to the topic, or whether they can give an overview or introduction to the topic.

### Customize a topic page To accommodate different scenarios for how an organization wants to use Topics, itΓÇÖs possible to customize a topic page to include more types of contentΓÇösuch as text, images, or linksΓÇöbeyond the standard properties of a topic. [Web parts](https://support.microsoft.com/office/using-web-parts-on-sharepoint-pages-336e8e92-3e2d-4298-ae01-d404bbe751e0) can be used on a topic page to bring in these different types of content.
-The appropriate web parts to use on a topic page will be based on the scenarios identified for Topics. The [Topics scenario catalog](https://aka.ms/TopicsScenarios) can be referenced for some ideas.
