Business value

Embedded authoring empowers information workers to create Copilot agents that boost their personal and group productivity—right from the surfaces they're already using every day: Business Chat for Microsoft 365 Copilot and Microsoft Teams. By making it easy and quick to create Copilot agents that can be instantly used throughout their org, workers can boost their personal and team productivity without having to learn or access a new app.

Feature details

Without writing any code, users can create Copilot agents directly from their conversations with Microsoft 365 Copilot, both on https://microsoft365.com/chat and in the Teams app. Copilot agents can easily be tailored by employees in your organization to fulfill specific use cases and scenarios, based on your organization's objectives, guidelines, and branding.

Creators can build within the familiar Microsoft 365 environment they know, without needing to learn Power Platform concepts or new apps.

With just a few clicks, users can create, share, and customize their Copilot agents. For example, you can connect to other knowledge sources to pinpoint the information Copilot should use to generate responses and take action.

Users can share their Copilot agents with other employees, and admins can use security governance controls within Copilot Studio, Power Platform, and Microsoft 365 to ensure business data is kept within their business.

For further customization, creators can open their Copilot agents in Microsoft Copilot Studio to take advantage of the full suite of advanced copilot authoring and publishing capabilities.
