CopilotPageContext

Control Copilot access to page context for Microsoft Entra ID profiles

Supported versions

  • Windows: ≥ 124
  • macOS: ≥ 124
  • Android: Not supported
  • iOS: Not supported

Description

This policy controls whether Copilot in the Microsoft Edge side pane can access page content.

This policy applies only to Microsoft Entra ID profiles in Microsoft Edge. It doesn't apply to Microsoft account (MSA) profiles.

Copilot requires access to page content to summarize pages and interact with text selections.

This policy doesn't control access for Copilot with enterprise data protection (EDP). Access for Copilot with EDP is controlled by the EdgeEntraCopilotPageContext policy.

If you enable this policy, Copilot can access page content.

If you disable this policy, Copilot can't access page content. This also disables the M365LinksAutoOpenCopilotEnabled feature, because Copilot requires page content access to provide contextual insights for Microsoft 365 links.

If you don't configure this policy:

  • Access is enabled by default in non-EU regions.
  • Access is disabled by default in EU regions.
  • Users can turn this setting on or off in Microsoft Edge settings.
