What the notice says

Microsoft’s text, with source markup removed
Updated August 11, 2026: With the upcoming Copilot Chat metric renaming, report templates will be upgraded to a new version. As a result, all existing recurring custom queries and published reports based on the current metrics will stop refreshing. You'll need to rerun your queries using the renamed metrics and republish your reports as needed.Prebuilt Power BI template reports, including any published versions, are not affected and require no action. Thank you for your patience.  Introduction We are adding new Copilot metrics across Microsoft 365 apps to help you better understand how users engage with Copilot. These metrics include actions taken in the Microsoft 365 Copilot app, Microsoft Edge, and OneNote, and intent-based usage across Outlook, Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. This update expands visibility into how users adopt Copilot and supports improved insights in the Copilot Dashboard and Advanced Analysis in Copilot Analytics.  In parallel, Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat will unify Work and Web tabs into a single, streamlined Copilot Chat experience. As part of this change, Copilot Analytics will consolidate Copilot Chat (Work) and Copilot Chat (Web) reporting into one unified Copilot Chat metric. This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 557981. When this will happen General Availability (Worldwide): We will begin rolling out in mid-June 2026 (previously early June) and expect to complete in late June 2026 (previously mid-June).
