Credits usage for Copilot Studio Workflow with agents

If I add an agent(for research and analyze from the JSON provided) in Copilot studio recurring workflow, whose and which credits will be used whenever it runs?

Hi Team,

I have a question regarding licensing and credit consumption in Copilot Studio.

I have created a Copilot Studio agent that performs research and analysis based on a JSON payload. I am planning to invoke this agent from within a Copilot Studio recurring workflow that runs on a schedule.

Could you please clarify the following:

  1. When the recurring workflow executes and calls the agent, whose credits are consumed?
    • The user who created the workflow?
    • The owner of the agent?
    • The account under which the workflow runs?
    • The environment's pooled credits?
  2. Are there separate credit charges for:
    • Workflow execution
    • Agent invocation
    • Generative AI/research actions performed by the agent

Any guidance or documentation links explaining the credit consumption model for this scenario would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
