Microsoft has released a new Office build for Windows Office Insiders in the Current Channel. The new Office Version 2207 (Build 15427.20090) adds a number of new features to Outlook, Excel, and Visio.

Microsoft is now rolling out a brand-new visual experience that makes it easier to parse information. The new Outlook also includes better relevance to help you pinpoint the correct results; and changes that help you quickly find the next occurrence in a series of events in your Calendar.

Moreover, Microsoft has added improvements to Excel PivotTables that are connected to Power BI datasets, including the ability to create aggregations on the fly by dragging any field into the Values area (including Implicit Measures). The latest Office release has also introduced reduced fragmentation of conditional formatting rules.

If you use Visio to create diagrams, you can find key documents in Visio with the Shared with Me list. Any documents shared with you will automatically show up in your list. You can read the complete official changelog below to learn more about these changes.
