By Impran M N
If you've never used Microsoft Loop before, the combination of workspaces, pages, and portable components can feel unfamiliar at first. This beginner-friendly guide walks through signing in, creating your first workspace and page, and sharing a live component into another Microsoft 365 app.
01Sign in to Loop
Open loop.cloud.microsoft in your browser and sign in to authenticate your Microsoft account.
02Create your first workspace
Click the plus icon to launch the workspace creation drawer, then enter a project title and assign a style icon.
03Add your first page
Go to the left sidebar and click Add New Page to open a fresh editing canvas inside your workspace.
04Use slash commands to build content
Place your cursor on a free line and type / to reveal the full list of available components, like tables and task lists.
05Drop in a component and tag a stakeholder
Select a task list or table, add content, and tag a teammate so background webhooks keep the data synced.
06Share a live component elsewhere
Open the block header options, choose Create Component, and share the resulting URL into a Teams chat for others to edit in real time.
