Microsoft 365 Copilot - New agent and extensibility options for developers
Use Copilot agents to enhance Microsoft 365 Copilot for your own unique needs to help turn information into insights. Tailored experiences work with external data, while adding unique skills to automate everyday repeatable tasks. Using the Copilot extensibility stack, you can create your own agent experiences connected to knowledge beyond Microsoft 365 and perform actions on your behalf.
Enhance the experience with Copilot extensibility stack options:
-Connect to relevant information sources, including those outside Microsoft 365, and use APIs to read and write data in near real-time.
-Extend the Microsoft 365 Graph indexer to include additional sites or services you specify.
-Create custom Copilot agents for specific scenarios, enabling automation of tasks through defined triggers and workflows.
