{How to} Reassign an copilot agent's owner with Power Platform API
Hello Everyone,



Today I am going to share my thoughts on how to reassign an copilot agent's owner with the Power Platform API.





Let's get started.


Here are the simple steps to reassign a Copilot Agent Owner using the Power Platform API.

This uses Microsoft Copilot Studio agents stored in Microsoft Dataverse.


Shorter version:

  • Get API token

  • Get botid

  • Get systemuserid of new owner

  • Send PATCH request to update ownerid




Step 1: Get the Environment URL

Find your Power Platform Environment URL.


Example:

https://yourenvironment.crm.dynamics.com



Step 2: Get an Access Token

Authenticate using Microsoft Entra ID.

You must obtain a Bearer token to call the Power Platform API.

Scope:

https://yourenvironment.crm.dynamics.com/default


Step 3:  Get the Copilot Agent ID

Call the API to list agents.

Get https://yourenvironment.crm.dynamics.com/api/data/v9.2/bots


Response example:

JSON

{
 "botid": "11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555",
 "name": "CustomerSupportCopilot"
}

Copy the botid.



Step 4: Get the New Owner User ID

Retrieve the user you want to assign.

GET https://yourenvironment.crm.dynamics.com/api/data/v9.2/systemusers

Find the systemuserid of the new owner.


Step 5: Reassign the Copilot Agent

Send a PATCH request to update the owner.

PATCH https://yourenvironment.crm.dynamics.com/api/data/v9.2/bots(BOT_ID)



Body:

JSON

{
 "[email protected]": "/systemusers(NEW_USER_ID)"
}


Example:  

JSON
{
 "[email protected]": "/systemusers(99999999-8888-7777-6666-555555555555)"
}





Result:

The Copilot agent is now owned by the new user.



That's it for today.

Until next blog post
Happy Copiloting
