Building and customizing solutions using Microsoft 365 Copilot APIs and tools
An agent created in Microsoft Copilot Studio can be made available in Microsoft Teams; it does not have to be created inside the Copilot Studio app in Teams.
Key points:
- Agents created in Copilot Studio (web) can be published to Teams:
- Open the agent in Copilot Studio.
- Go to Channels and select the Teams and Microsoft 365 Copilot tile.
- Select Add channel (if not already added), then use See agent in Teams to install it for use in Teams.
- Agents can also be created directly in the Copilot Studio app in Teams:
- These agents must belong to a specific team and are visible to everyone in that team.
- For agents created in Teams (Dataverse for Teams), there is an export/import path between teams using the Power Apps Teams app, not a requirement to recreate from scratch:
- Export the agent as part of a solution from one team and import it into another team.
So an agent does not need to be built in the Teams-hosted Copilot Studio app to be used in Teams; it can be created in Copilot Studio, published, and then connected to Teams via the Teams and Microsoft 365 Copilot channel.
