New Delhi, Oct. 19 -- Anthropic's Claude now connects to Microsoft 365 via its Model Context Protocol (MCP), letting the assistant pull files, emails, calendar events and Teams chats into its context. The update promises faster, context-rich answers and enterprise search across OneDrive and SharePoint, while putting data governance and admin controls front and centre.

Using the Microsoft toggle, Claude can pull from Outlook, Teams, OneDrive and Outlook Calendar. That lets it search files, read email threads, analyse chat conversations and extract calendar context, enabling it to answer practical questions such as "What's our next milestone for the project about X?" or "Summarise feedback from the last three client emails."
