Microsoft announcement
[What and Why:]
We’re introducing a new Microsoft 365 Copilot skill in the SharePoint Admin Agent that helps identify content requiring a cross-geo move and monitor move progress across OneDrive and SharePoint:
- Identify OneDrives that need to be moved: Find users whose Preferred Data Location was updated but whose OneDrive were not moved to the target Geo.
- Check the status of moves: Track the progress of cross geo OneDrive, SharePoint site, and Microsoft 365 Group moves initiated in the past.
- Identify moves that require attention: Find moves that didn’t complete successfully or have remained in progress for an extended period.
[Rollout Schedule:]
Global: We expect to complete rolling out by mid-October 2026.
[Impact on Your Organization:]
- Improved move visibility: Monitor OneDrive, SharePoint site, and Microsoft 365 Group moves in one place, helping administrators quickly identify content ready to move and moves that require attention.
- Simplified Multi-Geo administration: Track move status across all geographies from a single view in SharePoint Admin Agent, eliminating the need to connect to each geography separately.

[Action Required/Recommendations:]
Ensure your organization has the required Microsoft 365 Copilot and Multi-Geo licenses to use these capabilities. No additional configuration is needed to enable this skill.
