Last week, I messed up my schedule by responding to all the Copilot issues instead of taking my regular week off. So, this week, I have a short issue about a new feature that intrigues me.

Users may be using the Loop app inside Teams and Copilot without realizing it, which can create a challenge because these workspaces will be stored as SharePoint Embedded files outside the location of any SharePoint site that you could target for search and collection.

Last week, I noticed that Microsft has a new section called Containers in the SharePoint Admin Center.
