What you need to know

When working with features in public preview, these features:

  • Might have restricted or limited functionality. For example, the feature might only apply to one platform.
  • Typically go through feature changes before they're generally available (GA).
  • Are fully supported by Microsoft.
  • Might only be available in selected geographic regions or cloud environments. For example, a preview feature might not exist in the government cloud.
  • Individual features in preview might have more usage and support restrictions. If so, this information is typically noted in the feature documentation.
  • The preview versions are provided with a standard support level, and can be used for production environments.

Turn on preview features

If you turn on preview features, you'll have access to upcoming features, enabling you to provide feedback and help improve the overall experience before these features are generally available.
