SharePoint Copilot turns repeatable site workflows into skills
Microsoft says Copilot in SharePoint now lets users create and save custom skills for repeatable, multi-step workflows. The skills can capture site-specific standards, review processes, document guidelines, and lists, then run them consistently with natural language. Microsoft says the feature rolled out in May 2026.
SharePoint admins already manage sites, permissions, navigation, content ownership, and Copilot readiness. Reusable Copilot skills add a new layer: teams can standardise how a site summarises, reviews, or applies local rules, but only if someone defines who owns those skills and what content they rely on. The opportunity is useful for intranet and document-heavy sites where the same checks happen repeatedly. The risk is that old site standards, stale guidance, or broad permissions get packaged into a convenient skill and quietly reused by everyone.
Analysis
Pick one high-value SharePoint site and list the repeatable checks people already do manually, such as policy review, page summary, or document guideline checks. Before creating a skill, confirm the site owner, source pages, permissions, and review rule.
