How to Add or Share View-Only Microsoft Loop Pages to Another Workspace
Question details
Users want to know how to add view-only Microsoft Loop pages to their own workspaces or share them effectively with other organization members.
- Product
- Microsoft Loop
- Device & OS
- not provided
- Scenario
- A user receives or accesses a view-only Loop page and wishes to add it to their personal or team workspace for better organization and easier access.
- Observed behavior
- Microsoft Loop currently does not allow view-only pages to be added directly to another user's workspace, requiring users to rely on link sharing instead.
Ensure you have the exact URL of the Microsoft Loop page you wish to share and check your current sharing permissions within your Microsoft 365 organization account.
Share the Loop Page Link with Adjusted Permissions
Since direct workspace addition is restricted for view-only pages, the most effective method is to generate and distribute a secure page link with the correct organization members.
Currently, Microsoft Loop does not support importing or pinning a view-only page directly into an entirely different workspace. To bridge this gap, page owners must utilize the 'Share page link' function to grant targeted access.
Navigate to the view-only Microsoft Loop page you want to distribute and open it.
Click on the 'Share' button located in the upper right corner of the interface and select 'Share page link' from the dropdown menu.
Click on the gear icon or the current permission text to open the detailed sharing settings panel.
Configure the required permissions (such as view or edit access) and specify the organization members or selected recipients who need access to the page.
Click 'Apply' to save your settings, then copy the generated link and share it directly with your team.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I duplicate a view-only Loop page into my own workspace?
No, Microsoft Loop currently restricts duplicating or directly adding view-only pages into a different workspace. You can only access these pages via the shared link.
Why am I unable to edit the Loop page shared with me?
The owner of the Loop page has likely set your access level to 'view-only'. You must request the page owner to adjust the sharing permissions in the settings to allow editing.
How do I request a new workspace feature for Microsoft Loop?
You can submit product feedback directly to Microsoft by clicking the 'Help' or '?' icon within the Loop interface and selecting the 'Give feedback' option.
