Updated August 13, 2025: We have updated the content. Thank you for your patience.
What and Why
Starting in early August, Microsoft is introducing a new tenant-level service plan—Insights by MyAnalytics Backend—to support existing user-level service plans: Microsoft MyAnalytics (Full) and Insights by MyAnalytics. This backend-only update ensures alignment with security classification requirements while maintaining current MyAnalytics functionality. No changes are being made to user-facing features or SKU entitlements.
Rollout Schedule
- Rollout begins: Late-September 2025 (previously early August) with expected completion: Mid-October 2025 (previously mid-August).
- Who is affected:
- Tenants with users assigned to Microsoft MyAnalytics (Full) or Insights by MyAnalytics service plans.
- Admins managing service plan assignments in the Microsoft 365 admin center.
- What will happen:
- A new tenant-level service plan called Insights by MyAnalytics Backend will appear in the Microsoft 365 admin center.
- This plan will be enabled and greyed out, indicating it is not assignable or removable by admins.
- Existing user-level service plans remain unchanged and assignable.
- Admins will see both the new backend plan and the existing user-level plans in the admin center.
- No changes to SKU entitlements or service capabilities.
Example screenshot of service plan assignment view:
- Inform helpdesk and support staff about the new backend plan visibility.
- Update internal documentation if you reference MyAnalytics service plans.
- Continue managing user-level service plan assignments as usual.
- If you have questions, contact your Viva Insights support channel.
No compliance considerations identified, review as appropriate for your organization.
