How do I make an Agent available to my team? Is it possible even if they have no license?
Hi everyone,
I have been learning Copilot and practicing for last few days. It's been fun and challenging (mainly due to different ways to create Agents) but have been getting used to it. However, I do have 2 questions I wanted to get a confirmation on.
Question 1. I created and published an Agent using Copilot Studio page. How do I make it available in this 'Agents' section on the top right? Is it possible to make it available for myself for testing (production) then make it public for all of our team members?
Question 2: Is it possible for team members without Copilot license to those agents too on this Copliot page above?
I went to the agent i created/published on Copilot Studio, clicked Channels, and clicked 'Teams and Micorosft 365 Copliot' button. In there, I checked 'Make agent available in M365 Copliot' and saved + republished too but still not seeing it. I clicked 'See agent in Microsoft 365' which opened Copliot page and clicked 'Add' when it prompted me about the agent but nothing happened. I tried re-publishing as well but same result...
Thank you very much in advance.

You need to allow the agent within the Microsoft 365 Admin Center. This ensures that makers of Agents are required to have an additional approval. Go to the M365 Admin Center here: https://admin.cloud.microsoft/#/Settings/IntegratedApps and select the agent for publishing. Should similar look like this screenshot:

Sorry you have not got replies, but I can confirm the exact same happened to me. And by the way, it opens CoPilot to an "Apps" page. Why is an Agent going into the Apps section? As the OP said, you hit the Add button and it thinks for a bit and nothing happens.

Hi RobOK
I was able to add it to this 'Agents' section that i circled in Red.
1. First, on Teams app, I deleted the "app" for the Agent, which I previously added before by using See agent in Teams button in below screenshot).
2. I went back to Copliot Studio -> click Agents tab on the left -> Click your Agent -> Click Channels
3. Click Teams and Microsoft 365 Copliot button.
4. Click this See agent in Microsoft 365 button as shown in below screenshot.
5. Clicking See agent in Microsoft 365 button opened the Copliot page (ie. https://m365.cloud.microsoft) with a prompt to Add this agent.
6. Now, upon clicking Add button, the agent is created in this section I circled in Red below.
Hope it works!
p.s. Do ignore unmatching Agent name in the two screenshots i provided above. I copied them from Google Image since I am writing this on my personal computer which i have no access to Copilot Studio.
