Copilot for Non-Microsoft Applications
I see that the Copilot experience within the Microsoft product suite (Teams, PowerPoint, Excel, etc.), can be extended to leverage non-Microsoft data/apps by the use of Graph Connectors and plugins.
Does Microsoft have any plans to support embedding CoPilot within non-Microsoft applications? Allowing Co-Pilot to be accessed by non-Microsoft applications via API? If so, are there any tentative dates? Thanks!
- Ahmed_Masoud97Iron Contributorrokal000, Ludovik DOPIERALA, I appreciate the insights shared here. I believe the question boils down to whether Microsoft CoPilot can be integrated into non-Microsoft applications...
For now, it seems that Microsoft has not officially announced any plans to support embedding CoPilot within non-Microsoft applications.
It’s exciting to think about the potential of AI-powered services like CoPilot being more universally accessible. Let’s keep our fingers crossed for future developments!😍✌️- LUDOVIK DOPIERALAIron ContributorHello

Regards- Ahmed_Masoud97Iron ContributorYes, great! thanks
- LUDOVIK DOPIERALAIron ContributorYou can create your own connector : https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/blog/2023/05/23/empowering-every-developer-with-plugins-for-microsoft-365-copilot/

LUDOVIK DOPIERALA My understanding is that creating a plugin allows data/functionality from non-Microsoft applications to be incorporated into the copilot experience in Teams and other Microsoft products.
My question is different. Can Copilot be embedded into non-Microsoft applications or can the Copilot service by accessed outside of Microsoft applications (via API)?
- LUDOVIK DOPIERALAIron ContributorCopilot is lot of thing, basically :
You can create connector to add some information into the Semantic Index : retreive information
You can create connector to do some action : execute task into your application
