Microsoft Tip of the Week:

Lists + Loop = Real-Time Collaboration Magic

Revolutionize Teamwork with Microsoft Lists and Loop


Microsoft Lists is already a favorite for tracking tasks, assets, and projects. But when you combine it with Microsoft Loop, you unlock a whole new level of collaboration.


What’s the Magic?

  • Lists help you organize and manage structured information.

  • Loop lets you embed that list directly into Teams chats, Outlook emails, or Word documents.

  • Real-Time Editing means everyone can contribute without switching apps.


Use Case:

Create a project tracker in Lists, then drop it into a Teams chat using Loop. Team members can update statuses, assign tasks, and add comments—all without leaving the conversation.


Pro Tip: Use Loop components to keep your team aligned and your data centralized, no matter where the conversation happens.


Here’s a visual diagram illustrating how Microsoft Lists and Microsoft Loop work together in a real-world marketing campaign scenario:
