Teams - Collaborate in a conversation using Microsoft Loop Tutorial

Collaborate in a conversation using Microsoft Loop. Start a loop component in a Teams chat by clicking the loop icon to insert a component into your message. Provide a clear title like Project Plan A, then choose a template such as a table, bulleted list, checklist, task list, voting table, or numbered list and populate it with information. After sending, team members can view, edit, and add details directly in the thread. You can copy the component for reuse, manage sharing options, and access the content via OneDrive under Shared to view, share, or download as needed.

to create collaborative content directly in a chat.

00:00:10

Unlike a simple message,

00:00:11

a loop component can be edited by multiple people

00:00:15

and still be visible in the exchange thread.

00:00:18

A loop component can for example

00:00:21

be created in a conversation input box.

00:00:24

Click the loop icon.

00:00:26

Teams then inserts a component directly into your message.

00:00:30

The component opens with a title area

00:00:32

in a content space.

00:00:34

Start by adding a clear title

00:00:37

such as Project Plan A.

00:00:40

This title is important because it will then make it easy to identify the component

00:00:45

in the conversation and in OneDrive.

00:00:47

You can then choose the type of content to insert.

00:00:51

Teams offers several simple templates such as a table,

00:00:55

bulleted list,

00:00:56

checklist,

00:00:57

task list,

00:00:58

voting table,

00:00:59

numbered list,

00:01:00

and more.

00:01:01

For example,

00:01:02

you can structure project information,

00:01:05

insert a table,

00:01:06

and then populate columns and rows as needed by the team.

00:01:10

Once the component is prepared,

00:01:12

send the message as a regular post.

00:01:15

The loop component then appears directly in the conversation.

00:01:19

Team members can view,

00:01:21

edit,

00:01:21

and add information to it without opening another app.

00:01:25

When you hover over the component,

00:01:28

teams displays several possible actions.

00:01:31

For example,

00:01:32

you can copy the component for reuse elsewhere

00:01:35

or manage certain options related to sharing.

00:01:38

This allows the same content to be kept up to date

00:01:41

across multiple exchanges

00:01:43

without creating multiple separate versions of the document.

00:01:47

For example,

00:01:48

you can copy the loop component

00:01:50

and paste it into another conversation with another colleague.

00:01:53

In this case,

00:01:54

the component remains collaborative.

00:01:57

Changes made within a conversation are shown in the same item

00:02:01

because it's not just an independent copy

00:02:04

but shared content.

00:02:06

The component may also appear with a link with its name.

00:02:09

This link identifies the associated loop file.

00:02:13

This allows authorized users to access the content and

00:02:17

continue working on it according to the defined permissions.

00:02:21

To find the loop components you've created or shared in Teams,

00:02:25

open the OneDrive app from the team's left sidebar.

00:02:29

In OneDrive,

00:02:29

click shared.

00:02:31

This is where the loop files are stored.

00:02:33

In this folder you can find loop components as a file with the loop extension,

00:02:38

such as project plan A file.

00:02:41

This allows you to view,

00:02:43

share,

00:02:44

download,

00:02:44

or manage them from OneDrive if needed.

00:02:47

In short,

00:02:48

loop components make it possible to turn a simple team's conversation

00:02:52

into a collaborative workspace.
