Learn moreImprove Copilot & Search performance
Microsoft 365 Archive can help improve Copilot results by removing archived files from Copilot’s active index. These files are often outdated, rarely accessed, or no longer relevant—creating noise that can dilute Copilot responses.
By archiving inactive content, you can reduce clutter across SharePoint and search experiences, helping Copilot surface higher‑value, current information while maintaining governance and compliance.
