Microsoft Loop for the PMO

I recently recorded a video regarding Microsoft Loop. And I must say, apart from Generative AI this has me most hyped at the moment. There is so much potential in this application, it’s difficult to wrap my head around it. So let’s do some exploring together!

Here’s the vibrant and artistic representation of a computer screen showcasing Microsoft Loop, with elements and colors leaping out of the screen. This image embodies the essence of creativity and collaboration, inviting you into an exciting world of digital collaboration. Source: Bing.com/create

Don’t you just love it when GenAI goes off track and completely ignores the request to have the LOOP logo in the center of the image?

I’ve skipped over May and June, it has been a very busy time for me. And I didn’t want to rush any new post just for the sake of consistency.

Welcome to a special update post, today I want to zoom in on a specific Project for the web feature request. This request came in through one of the newsletter subscribers, Jared Kay (who makes lovely handmade American furniture). But first, let’s look at the progress of the other requests on the feedback portal.

Create a Power BI report that shows all files in Project Online

Hi reader,
I was recently asked by one of my clients to give them an exact number of all the files that were in the Project Online environment. The reason behind it was that the organisation wants to use Microsoft Teams to store all project related files instead of the classic Project Sites.

This is of course music to my ears! I get to play around with Power BI and the client is moving towards a future where Teams is available to all their teammembers. You might remember my previous video in which I share how to connect Teams with Project Online.

In this article I’ll share with you the steps I took to create this report. Then, at the end of the article I’ll share the video on how to do it. And as a final offer, I’ll give you the template I created so that you can do it even faster yourselves. Sounds goud? Here we go!

Projectum took a shot at it, and let me say it is spot on! And even better yet! It’s free and available for you to download right now.
