Hi GabeHo , nice article, but if we use a separate account for administration we will need a second license for the admin account. Would be nice if this license for the admin could be for free if the personal account already use a copilot license.

Hey hbunkradt, you do not need to have a Copilot license assigned to the admin account to use Copilot in the Microsoft 365 admin center. As long as you have any Microsoft 365 Copilot license in your tenant, an admin should be able to use Copilot in the admin center.
