code snippet feature in microsoft loop

Question

As an avid fan of Microsoft and its impressive array of products, I have been eagerly following the development of Microsoft Loop. The concept of a versatile collaboration tool has certainly captured my interest. However, as an aspiring developer and technology enthusiast, I must admit that I harbor a desire for an added feature in Loop – a code snippet feature.

Imagine the convenience and efficiency it would bring to the table. With the ability to insert and share code snippets seamlessly within Loop, the collaboration possibilities would be endless. Whether it's for programming projects, software development discussions, or even academic purposes, having a dedicated code snippet feature would elevate Loop to new heights.

This sentiment is widely shared within my college community, where students and faculty members alike are eagerly awaiting the opportunity to harness the power of Microsoft Loop with the inclusion of this valuable addition. We believe that such an enhancement would not only streamline our collaboration efforts but also align Loop with the evolving needs of the technology-driven world we live in.

Hello Ashik ZaaZ

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

The code snippet feature in Microsoft Loop is a feature that allows you to insert and share code snippets in various programming languages within Loop components. Loop components are portable pieces of content that can be embedded and updated across different Microsoft 365 apps, such as Teams, Outlook, Word, and Whiteboard. With the code snippet feature, you can collaborate with your team on coding projects, share your ideas and solutions, and learn from each other.

To use the code snippet feature in Microsoft Loop, you can follow these steps:

• Open the Loop app on your device or go to https://loop.microsoft.com on your browser and sign in with your Microsoft account.
• Create a new Loop page or open an existing one.
• Click on the plus icon (+) at the bottom of the page to add a new Loop component.
• Select Code Snippet from the list of components.
• Choose the programming language you want to use from the drop-down menu at the top of the component. You can choose from C#, C++, CSS, HTML, Java, JavaScript, JSON, PHP, Python, Ruby, SQL, TypeScript, and XML.
• Type or paste your code in the component. You can use the toolbar at the bottom of the component to format your code, such as indenting, commenting, or wrapping lines.
• To share your code snippet with others, you can either copy the link to the Loop page or embed the Loop component in another app. To embed the Loop component, click on the three dots (…) at the top right corner of the component and select Copy embed code. Then, paste the embed code in an app that supports Loop components, such as Teams, Outlook, Word, or Whiteboard.

Would you mind if I ask a screenshot where you stop in following the steps above? I tried to reciprocate your issue. I am not able to get in since I am using a company PC. I found the steps by doing a research. If you have a different view then, I would suggest sending a feedback in regard to your issue.
