Microsoft 365 new feature – Microsoft Editor Spellcheck and Grammar in SharePoint Pages – very helpful for content / news editors

Hi All,

Greetings for the day 🙂 LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL 🙂

Today again update on new feature of my favorite cloud SAAS service – Microsoft 365

New feature – Microsoft Editor Spellcheck and Grammar in SharePoint Pages

Background :

• Microsoft has published news – Microsoft will add the Microsoft Editor service to SharePoint Pages and News and enabling their spellcheck and grammar capabilities
• But then timeline for this feature is changed and got delayed

Updated Timelines :

• Targeted Release: (select users and entire org) will begin rolling out in late December and expect to complete rollout late February (previously mid-January)
• Standard: will begin rolling out in mid-January and expect to complete rollout late January. This feature should be already in our tenant now 🙂

Feature details :

• This feature / update will add the Microsoft Editor service to SharePoint Pages and News and enabling their spellcheck and grammar capabilities
• This will allow proofreading to take place in SharePoint without relying on the Editor browser extension
• Example in below news, SharePoint keyword is written as – “sharepoint“

• If we left click on “sharepoint” keyword as shown in below fig, we will get the list of suggested words with correct word as shown in below fig – “SharePoint“

• Grammar suggestion

• As in below image we have grammar mistake for “spell checking” it should be “spell-checking”

Microsoft Roadmap Id : 88534
