Microsoft Copilot Chat is now available in the GCC cloud and has been rolling out, with completion expected by the end of June 2025. This release provides Copilot Chat to all users without requiring an M365 Copilot Add-on license.
By default, web-grounding is turned off in GCC tenants. If web-grounding is enabled, users can use Copilot Chat with data from the Internet. The query leaves the GCC boundary, but all necessary internet data required by Copilot to provide a response is brought back and processed within the GCC compliance boundary. Therefore, the risk for organizations is minimal and comparable to users using a public Internet search engine to find answers. Additionally, organizations may benefit from increased security as all user interactions with Copilot Chat are discoverable and comply with Microsoft’s Enterprise Data Commitments.
If web-grounding remains disabled, users will still have access to a basic ChatGPT offering with Copilot Chat. Users can utilize files with Copilot Chat, but no additional Internet data will be available. Users are limited to a maximum file size of 512 MB per uploaded file and a maximum of three file uploads per day.
