Microsoft 365: Loop
How to Request Access
Everyone with an active UCSF email address has access to the web version of Microsoft 365 (office.ucsf.edu) applications such as Microsoft Loop as well as the Loop integration in Microsoft Teams.
Description
Microsoft Loop is a transformative co-creation experience that brings together teams, content and tasks across your tools and devices. Loop combines a powerful and flexible canvas with portable components that move freely and stay in sync across applications — enabling teams to think, plan, and create together.
