  1. Cortana Briefings


    Hello,


    I have an end user that received a Cortana briefing that involved a task from a supervisor. The original email never reached the users inbox, they are only able to access the email from the Cortana brief. Is this a setting that can be disabled or something that is typical of a Cortana brief? Thanks for any information.



    Moved from: Microsoft 365 and Office Outlook Other/unknown Office 2016

    :)

  2. Cortana Daily Briefing

    Hello,

    I am on a mac, not sure if or how that nay affect things but I use the online version of Microsoft Office 365 (primarily outlook email) for work. We've been getting "Daily Briefings" from Cortana via email, which are very useful as it shows things like "2
    days ago you said: I will take care of this and get back to you" -- allowing me to click "done" or "add to To Do List".

    My boss asked me if Cortana can be modified to locate or recognize keywords for this daily briefing. Example, we set up her keywords for "quote" or "pricing" and then in her daily email briefings it would show "2 days ago: XX emailed you asking for a XX
    quote" thus allowing him to a) mark "done" or b) mark "add to my to do list".

    So far nobody via support had been able to answer me and has only directed me to set rules for our emails recognizing key words and having them auto filtered to a specific inbox folder.

    Any feedback would be really appreciated!

    In order to enable the Notebook icon in Cortana, I suggest you to check if you have enabled Cortana.

    To enable Cortana, please follow the steps below:

    • Go to Cortana.
    • Go to Settings.
    • Turn on “Cortana can give you suggestions, ideas, reminders, alerts”.

    Hope this helps.

    2. In the search box at the bottom, type Disable Cortana.
    3. Once the suggestions appear in the list, click Cortana & Search settings.
    4. From the right section of the Settings pane, move the top button to ‘Off’ to disable Cortana from Windows 10.
