Ask Copilot questions

An easy way to get support while building your Power Pages website is to ask Copilot for help. You can get started by asking Copilot for help questions that you usually search for in the documentation. Example questions you could ask would include:

  • How do I add more colors to my style themes?
  • How do I bring my own data to my site?
  • What are custom solutions?

Remember that you can only ask questions about building your website in Power Pages. If you're unable to get a response, try to ask again by rephrasing your question using smaller sentences. If you're still unsuccessful, you can always find help in the Microsoft Power Pages documentation .

Note

This feature is now generally available (GA) for all regions with the exception of Canada, the Government Cloud (GCC), and the Government Community Cloud – High (GCC High).
