The permissions model ensures that data is only accessible to authorized users, and the service is designed to block harmful content and prevent unauthorized access.
What data is stored from user interactions with Microsoft 365 Copilot?
When users interact with Microsoft 365 Copilot, data such as prompts and responses are stored, forming a Copilot activity history.
