Microsoft expert: AI in SharePoint with Microsoft Lists Copilot and Excel lets build edit and query lists conversationally

Key insights

  • Microsoft Lists AI in SharePoint lets users build, edit, and query lists using natural language.
    No column settings, no Power Automate, and no code are required.
  • Create a vendor register from an Excel spreadsheet in a single prompt to speed onboarding.
    The demo shows the entire list populated from the uploaded sheet.
  • Converse to evolve the schema mid-session and add compliance columns as requirements change.
    This keeps governance and audit needs up to date without manual column setup.
  • Use plain language to bulk edit items and to build formatted views for reviews.
    Changes apply across many records and views are styled conversationally.
  • Run live queries to query data like: show all Professional Services vendors over $50K.
    Natural-language filters and summaries surface the answers directly in the list.
  • Feature status and requirements: this capability is in public preview and requires a Microsoft 365 Copilot license with Anthropic enabled as a sub-processor for the tenant.
    Expect tenant-level enablement during the rollout.
