Introduction

The Microsoft 365 integration allows CometAI to work with your Microsoft account services - such as OneDrive and SharePoint - directly inside conversations and assistants.

Once connected, you can attach files from OneDrive or SharePoint, and ask CometAI to summarize or generate. CometAI only acts when you request it, and it stays within your existing Microsoft 365 permissions.

Microsoft 365 integration is especially useful for everyday work involving email, meetings, shared documents, and file-based research without leaving CometAI.

Note: Only Microsoft OneDrive and SharePoint support is available at the moment. Outlook, Calendar, Excel, OneNote etc. will be available soon!

  • Browse and Attach Files – Open OneDrive or SharePoint from the Files picker and attach documents to chat.
  • Use Files with Assistants – Attach drive files as assistant data sources.
