Understanding Microsoft Copilot Studio
With Microsoft Copilot Studio you have the maximum potential for making custom agents. You can use it to create agents that you can host in multiple different channels like Microsoft Teams, custom web sites, Skype, Slack, etc. You can also host your agents in Microsoft 365 Copilot chat. The knowledge base can be:
- SharePoint Online
- OneDrive for Business
- Public web sites
- Microsoft Dataverse tables
- Power Platform connectors
- etc.
Agents interact with users through topics, which can define single-turn or multi-turn conversations with the user. Every agent can have custom actions to interact with Power Automate flows, Power Platform connectors, external REST APIs, etc. Generally speaking, with Copilot Studio you can create really powerful agents without the need to write any line of code.
In order to use Copilot Studio, you need a user license (also known as per user license) for each user creating or maintaining an agent. Moreover, you need an organization level license for Copilot Studio (also known as tenant license). Starting December 1, 2024, Pay-As-You-Go is supported for Copilot Studio messages, which allows customers flexibility to only pay for the message capacity they consume.
