M365 Changelog: Ink and highlighter in Excel for the web

MC236693 – We have updated the rollout timeline below. Thank you for your patience.

We are adding the ability to share SharePoint pages to Yammer communities and to make it easier to create Yammer posts, questions, polls, and praises directly from a SharePoint page.

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 66183 

When this will happen

  • Targeted release (organization) will begin mid-December and should be complete by late December
  • Standard release will begin early January and should be complete by mid-March (previously end of January)

How this will affect your organization

Users will be able to easily share SharePoint sites/pages in Yammer communities by using the Send to menu.

The Send-to dialog provides a rich preview for media and the ability add rich text to the associated message. It also makes it possible to add questions, praise, and polls as well as to upload images and files to the post that results from the share.
