Hello,

I've been attempting to create a copilot agent for my sharepoint site, but there is an error message that pops up : the agent couldn't be saved.

    The error message indicating that the Copilot agent couldn't be saved could be due to insufficient permissions or issues with the configuration of the agent. Specifically, if the agent owner does not have the necessary permissions to share or update sharing permissions on certain files, this could prevent the agent from being saved.

    To resolve this issue, ensure that the agent owner has the appropriate permissions in SharePoint. If the sharing fails, the agent may still be shared with users, but they will not have access to the underlying knowledge sources unless permissions are updated.

    Additionally, if you encounter errors related to creating the agent, it may be due to insufficient permissions for the selected environment or other configuration issues. Make sure that the environment is correctly set up and that you have the necessary access.
