Microsoft 365 - Getting Started with Cortana Briefing Email

The Briefing email helps you stay in control of your calendar and be intentional about your day. Within the first two hours of your workday (as set up in Outlook), you will get an email about any relevant items to help you better prepare for the day ahead.

The customized email is only available to an end user; no administrator or manager can see another individual’s Briefing email. All data is stored inside the user’s mailbox.
