New Rating question added to Polls app
Many Teams users wanted a way to quickly get feedback from meeting attendees on how satisfied they were or how well they understood the meeting content. So, we’ve added a new Rating question type to the Polls app within Microsoft Teams. Meeting owners can easily create and launch Rating polls to increase engagement and collect input from their meeting attendees, as well as share the results in real time. To create a Rating poll question, simply select Rating when creating a new poll in Teams.

Office Suite
User-defined permissions now support domain name restrictions
When a user chooses a sensitivity label configured for user-defined permissions, they can now use domain names to restrict file access to specific individuals, or to all individuals from that domain. For eksempel, you can specify “someone@example.com” or “@example.com,” and permissions will be restricted based on those parameters.
Excel
Improvements made to data models in Power BI
We’ve made some upgrades to the analysis services components used in data modeling and Power Pivot in Excel. This is a maintenance update for the data modeling engine, and it won’t noticeably change any interactions related to the Excel data model.

Get relevant alerts with new Notifications pane
Don’t let important information get buried in your inbox. The new Notifications pane in Outlook delivers notifications that are relevant to you in the context of your regular email.

To turn on the new pane, simply select the Notifications icon at the top-right corner of your Outlook window. (Note: This feature is initially available only to enterprise customers.)
