Updated February 17, 2026: We have updated the timeline. Rollout on mobile platforms (Android and iOS) are in progress, expected completion by 3/30. Thank you for your patience.

This update allows users to retrieve past interactions—including chats from notebooks, agents, and the main Copilot chat interface—directly within the search results page (SERP). A new “Copilot Chats” data source will also appear in the right rail, enabling users to scope their search specifically to Copilot-generated content.
A Microsoft 365 Copilot license is required to access this feature.
