Claude now seamlessly connects with Microsoft 365 and introduces enterprise search, enabling teams to work smarter by leveraging their existing tools and collective knowledge.

Streamlined Collaboration with Microsoft 365

Claude integrates directly with your daily productivity tools, pulling context from documents, emails, and calendars to support your work. This connection reduces time spent searching for information, allowing you to focus on decisions and tasks that matter most. With the new Microsoft 365 connector, Claude accesses:

1. SharePoint and OneDrive: Search and analyze documents, from project plans to strategic reports, without manual uploads.
2. Outlook: Review email threads and extract insights from communications to track project updates or client feedback.
3. Teams: Dive into chat histories, channel discussions, and meeting summaries to stay aligned with team progress and decisions.

This integration helps you reason through complex challenges, make informed choices, and act quickly by keeping relevant information at your fingertips.

Enterprise Search: Unlocking Your Organization’s Knowledge

Claude’s enterprise search feature centralizes access to your company’s data through a dedicated, customizable project tailored to your organization. Admins can set up this shared project with simple steps, connecting essential tools and enabling custom prompts for efficient searches. Once activated, every team member gains access to this unified knowledge hub.

When you ask Claude a question, it draws from connected data sources such as HR documents, email discussions, or team guidelines—to deliver comprehensive answers. For example, querying your company’s remote work policy could yield a detailed report combining information from SharePoint files, Outlook emails, and Teams discussions.

This feature shines for onboarding new employees, analyzing trends like customer feedback, or identifying internal experts for specific projects, making it easier to tap into your organization’s collective expertise.

Enterprise search is also available for Team and Enterprise plans. Admins can customize the project and connect relevant data sources to enable teams to leverage this powerful tool.

By integrating with Microsoft 365 and offering enterprise search, Claude empowers teams to work more efficiently, stay informed, and make decisions with confidence.
