Hinweis

Copilot Spaces befindet sich in der public preview. Änderungen sind vorbehalten.

Copilot Spaces let you organize the context that Copilot uses to answer your questions. Leerzeichen can include code from repositories, free-text content like transcripts or notes, and more—grouped together in one place. You can ask Copilot questions grounded in that context, or share the space with your team to support collaboration and knowledge sharing.

Why use Copilot Spaces?

Whether you’re working solo or collaborating across a team, Leerzeichen help you make Copilot more useful.

With Copilot Spaces you can:

  • Get more relevant, specific answers from Copilot.
  • Stay in flow by collecting what you need for a task in one place.
  • Reduce repeated questions by sharing knowledge with your team.
  • Support onboarding and reuse with self-service context that lives beyond chat history.

How are Leerzeichen different from knowledge bases?

Leerzeichen are optimized for specific tasks and grounded conversations. Because context in Leerzeichen is scoped, Copilot's responses are more accurate and relevant.

Who can use Leerzeichen?

Anyone with a Copilot license, including Copilot Free, can create and use Leerzeichen.

During the public preview, if you're using a Copilot Business or Copilot Enterprise plan, the organization or enterprise that provides your plan must have the Opt in to preview features setting enabled. See Managing policies for Copilot in your organization or Managing policies and features for Copilot in your enterprise.

Leerzeichen can belong to a personal account or to an organization. Spaces owned by an organization can be shared with other organization members (read-only) or kept private to the person who created the space.

How does using Leerzeichen affect my usage?

Questions you submit in a space count as Copilot Chat requests.

  • If you're a Copilot Free user, this usage counts toward your monthly chat limit.
  • If you use Leerzeichen with a premium model, this usage counts toward your premium usage quota. Every question you submit to a premium model counts as one premium request, multiplied by the model's multiplier. For information about the multipliers applied to each model, see Understanding and managing requests in Copilot.
