Microsoft Outlook: Meeting Insight is retiring

What and Why: Microsoft is retiring Meeting Insights, the feature that surfaces relevant emails and files within meeting details. To provide a more intelligent and context-aware meeting preparation experience, users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license can instead use Copilot meeting preparation experiences that summarize relevant content, tasks, and context available to the user.
