How to enable Microsoft Loop Public Preview
Microsoft Loop is a new co-creation experience designed to help teams collaborate more effectively. Loop allows users to bring together content, tasks, and teams across various devices and tools, enabling users to organize their thoughts, content, and resources as projects evolve.
The Loop app is entering a public preview phase and it is by default OFF since it does not yet meet all of Microsoft’s compliance capabilities. Despite this limitations if you still want to enable Microsoft Loop for your organization you must do it using a cloud policy to deploy the Loop setting to a Security Group.
Enabling Microsoft Loop through custom policy
ℹ️ Important
Before configuring the settings, it is essential to create a security group that specifies which users in your organization the policy will apply to. Failure to create this group will result in the settings you configure not being applicable to your users. More information about creating groups in the Microsoft 365 admin center can be found here, or creating dynamic groups in AzureAD can be found on here.
