Windows 10: New MyAnalytics nudges in Outlook for Office 365

Brink · Sep 18, 2018

MyAnalytics is like a fitness tracker for the workplace. It uses data from everyday work in Microsoft 365 to help you find time to focus, get better work-life balance, and strengthen your most important relationships. All insights surfaced in MyAnalytics are private and visible only to you (read the MyAnalytics privacy guide here).

Now, MyAnalytics will help you stick to your productivity goals by showing brief, data-driven collaboration tips as you get work done in Outlook.

User sees a notification on a meeting invite that nudges them to set aside time for focused work

Starting next week, MyAnalytics users will see three nudges in Outlook on the web and the latest version of Outlook for Windows while reading and composing emails and meeting invites.

Get more focus time

Challenging, innovative work requires deep focus and undivided attention. As your calendar fill up with meetings, MyAnalytics will remind you to set aside time for focused work before accepting new invites. You can see available times and block them off without leaving your inbox. MyAnalytics will also notify you when a meeting invite conflicts with a block of focus time that you’ve already scheduled.

Reduce your after-hours impact on coworkers

We announced last year that MyAnalytics summarizes your after-hours impact on coworkers. Now, MyAnalytics will actively nudge you to avoid sending after-hours emails as you draft them to coworkers that you’ve recently impacted outside of regular working hours.

Stay on top of to-do’s

MyAnalytics already uses intelligent technology to remind you of tasks you promised to complete for coworkers (and requests you received from coworkers). Now, MyAnalytics surfaces these reminders as you read emails from coworkers, so you can close out important tasks before taking on new ones.

How to manage MyAnalytics nudges

You can manage nudges in two ways:

1. Manage nudge frequency using thumbs up/down buttons

When you click on the prompt in a nudge, the MyAnalytics Outlook add-in will open to help you take action. The add-in will contain thumbs up/down buttons so that you can indicate if the tip was helpful. When the thumbs down button is clicked, you’ll see the corresponding nudge less often.

2. Turn off all nudges using the MyAnalytics add-in for Outlook

You can turn off all nudges by opening the settings pane of the MyAnalytics add-in for Outlook and toggling off the “Outlook notifications” option.

Cortana & Office 365 Integration

We are trying to integrate Cortana with our Office 365 subscription, but it never works. Here are the steps we have done:

Turned on Cortona in the Office 365 Admin portal

We are using Windows 10 1703 – connected Office 365 service to Cortana

Did the same on windows 10 mobile with no luck, Cortana says its connected to Office 365, but sees no data and we are getting zero errors

We went rough office 365 support first and tried all fo their suggestions, they kicked us over to Windows support which is currently closed.

We are on v1703 with all updates in place, it does not work on Windows 10 desktop or mobile

any ideas? I can give you all steps 365 support had us run through if that will be helpful

Thank you

Doug
