Connect your data to Azure OpenAI for generative answers (preview)

When you connect data through Azure OpenAI Service in Copilot Studio, your copilots can use resources from Azure through the generative answers node. Azure OpenAI on your data works with the powerful language models. The Azure OpenAI models and Azure AI Search index your data and provide responses while complying with your organizational policies.
