Microsoft are rolling out new features and changes to the Microsoft 365 services frequently.
Expiring external guests’ access to SharePoint and OneDrive documents
- Roadmap ID: 43797
- September 2020
In order to better manage sharing, Microsoft 365 admins will be able to create a policy to revoke guest access to SharePoint sites and individual OneDrives after a defined period of time. With this policy, you can limit guest user access; thus, guests who are no longer active partners will not retain indefinite access to documents and files.
Results from Power BI coming to Microsoft Search in SharePoint and Office.com
- Roadmap ID: 67103
- September 2020
Data visualization is a key content type when using search to determine questions and weigh outcomes. We’re updating Microsoft Search in SharePoint and Office.com to include results from Power BI. This means search results will show Power BI reports, dashboards, and workspaces, which can be important content to be discovered.
SharePoint sites gets the new "create list" experience
- Roadmap ID: 67137
- September 2020
SharePoint lists take a big step in the evolution to Microsoft Lists. And you need do nothing but enjoy the update. You will now be able to create lists from eight built-in templates from SharePoint sites (from the Site contents page or from the “New” menu on the home page).
Microsoft Lists - calendar view
- Roadmap ID: 64167

Create a new, visual list view – especially when items have important dates to track. Calendar view is a helpful addition alongside other views you create to represent and track information.
Microsoft Lists - gallery view
- Roadmap ID: 57304

Grid view is great. Calendar view is dandy and date driven. And now, Gallery view, a gorgeous new way to visualize rows of information as individual, dynamic, configurable cards – especially engaging when your list items have associated images.
Quick edit --> "Edit in grid view"
- Roadmap ID: 67136

Today, when users bulk edit list items in a list or a document library, they select the Quick edit button in the top action bar. We are renaming this button Edit in grid view.
Updated Choice, Person, and Yes/No column experiences
- Roadmap ID: 67095
- September 2020
Microsoft and SharePoint Lists are getting new field editors and renderers to better refine and present your information with updated and engaging design. Items with a Person column will appear using the new "pill" design format when a person's photo is displayed. Select one or more people to add to a Person column quickly, and the entry will display an updated look.
Message Center sync to Microsoft Planner,
- Roadmap ID: 63317
- September 2020
Lots of information arrives in the Message Center, and you need to decide whether to act on it or not. And if an action is needed, who performs that action, and how do you track that task to completion? Or maybe you want to make a note of something and tag it for later. You can do all of this and more when you sync your Message Center to Microsoft Planner.
Yammer Reactions

- September 2020
You can now express yourself through gratitude and celebration, laughter, and sadness-just like in real life. This gives you more ways to respond or express your feelings in the conversations you care most about, while gaining insight about how others feel about your content and conversations.
