ANNOUNCING BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY WITH MICROSOFT GRAPH POWERSHELL V2.19


Carol Mbasinge Kigoonya
May 16, 2024


DEVICE PERMISSION PROMPT API AVAILABLE FOR OFFICE ADD-INS ON THE WEB


Ester Bergen

In this fast-moving era of AI, staying up-to-date on the latest technology is
not an option but a necessity. That’s why we’re excited to announce a new
community-led repository that is set to transform your workflow. This repo is a
collection of prompts that will help you use the power of Microsoft Copilot
across various application from Word to PowerPoint to Microsoft Teams, and more!

Take a look at an existing prompt in the sample to locate what meetings you have
and to which you have not yet responded to.




HOW TO USE THE REPOSITORY COPY LINK

Simply go to the sample folder and select one sample (see steps 1-3) in the
figure below. Then find the instructions in the readme.md file to run the prompt
yourself. Be sure to checkout the prerequisites before you get started.




CONTRIBUTING YOUR OWN PROMPTS COPY LINK

Your insights can help the community thrive. If you have prompts that can
benefit others or if you have figured out a hack, here’s how to share them:







If you don’t wish to do the steps below: Open an issue and post your image and
prompt and someone from the community can take care of putting it in the repo,
giving you full credit.


FORK THE REPOSITORY COPY LINK

Go to the repository https://aka.ms/pnp-prompt-bank

Select the Fork button to create your own copy.


CREATE A NEW BRANCH COPY LINK

Clone your forked repository and create a new branch with a unique name that
reflects your prompt’s purpose.


ADD A NEW FOLDER COPY LINK

Inside the samples folder, create a new folder following the naming convention:
<apphost-functionality-prompt>.

For example, if you’re creating a prompt for a PowerPoint sales report, name it
ppt-sales-report-prompt.


PREPARE THE README FILE COPY LINK

Find an existing readme.md file in any sample folder.

Copy it into the new folder you created in the step above and update the
contents in the file to describe your prompt.


CREATE AN ASSETS FOLDER COPY LINK

Within your new folder, add a subfolder named assets.

This is where you’ll store any images or GIF files that your readme file refers
to.


COPY THE SAMPLE JSON FILE COPY LINK

Locate the sample.json file in any existing sample’s assets folder.

Copy this file into your own assets folder.


UPDATE THE JSON FILE COPY LINK

Modify the sample.json file in your assets folder to match the details of your
prompt.

And that’s it! You’re now ready to contribute your creative prompts to the
repository.

Create a pull request from your forked repos’ new branch to the upstream
repository’s main branch so your prompts can be reviewed and approved by the one
of the community folks in their free time.


SPREADING THE WORD COPY LINK

Let’s get the community buzzing:

 * Share your prompts on social media platforms and tag it with #CopilotPrompts.
 * Talk about it in your professional networks to encourage others to contribute
   and use the prompts.
 * Bookmark and keep an eye on the repository on GitHub to stay updated with the
   latest contributions.

This new GitHub repository is more than just a collection of prompts, it is
there to get you ahead in the AI revolution. By contributing and utilising these
prompts, we can all push the boundaries of what’s possible with Copilot. So,
let’s collaborate, create, and elevate our productivity to new heights!

   Tried the “unresponded meetings” prompt. Didn’t work at all. Showed only a
   tiny subset of my meetings and showed them regardless of whether they were
   responded to or not. “AI slop” is really a good term to describe much of what
   these LLMs produce.
