[What and why]
We have introduced an enhancement to Copilot in SharePoint page authoring that allows page authors to directly select specific page canvas elements before submitting a prompt to Copilot. This improvement helps authors provide more precise context for Copilot, making it easier to target edits to specific sections or web parts and improving the page editing experience.

- General Availability (Worldwide, GCC, GCC High, DoD): This feature is available now.
Who is affected
- SharePoint page authors with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license.

What will happen
- Authors editing a SharePoint page with Copilot can directly select specific page canvas elements before submitting a prompt.
- Selected elements will appear as a selection indicator above the Copilot chat box.
