Business value

Save time and resources when you use prompts that set logic inside Copilot agents. With these prompts, you don't need as much manual work, and you can reuse the prompts.

Feature details

When you use prompts in Copilot agents, you set specific logic to extract and augment information from documents. With this feature, you can:

• Save hours for each Copilot user who doesn't need to manually extract, augment, and format specific data.
• Perform the exact same document processing logic for each Copilot user in one or two chat interactions.
• Reuse the prompt across multiple agents, apps, and automated flows.

To use this feature, create a prompt in Power Apps or Power Automate of Copilot Studio. Then, add an input type, such as image or document. Supported types are PNG, JPG, JPEG, and PDF. Now you're ready to include the prompt in a Copilot agent using topics (actions aren't supported yet). Finally, test the agent and publish it.

This feature is enabled by default without any admin configuration.
