Examples of using Copilot in Viva Glint after the initial use

There are two overarching ways to use Copilot in Viva Glint:

  • Copilot functions as a chatbot. This instance opens a Copilot pane to the right of the window currently open and slides the open window to the left.
  • Copilot is embedded within the existing reporting flow. Within a report, a new window opens, partially covering the current window.

Enable Copilot to work as a chatbot

The Copilot button opens a pane on the right side of your screen, which functions as a chatbot. Use prescribed prompts or key in your own.

This example follows Copilot comment summarization on the Comments Report, a window into Glint's Narrative Intelligence technology.
