Orchestrator + SubAgents
Hi, I would like to create a Parent Agent that can orchestrate other SubAgents based on topic, so I can also be flexible and expand/adjust the SubAgent population based on need. Should I build in C...
- Check the base configuration
- Verify that the Orchestrator feature in Copilot Studio is enabled (requires administrator privileges).
- Path: Microsoft 365 Administrator Center > Copilot Settings > Ensure that the “Cross-Application Automation” permission is enabled.
2.Update or restart the service
- In Word/Excel click on File > Accounts > Update Options to ensure Office is up to date.
- Log out and back in to your Microsoft 365 account to refresh permissions.
3. Test sub-agents step-by-step
- Test the sub-agent functionality individually, for example:
- In Word type: “Summarize my last 5 Outlook emails” (to test the Outlook sub-agent).
- In Teams try: “Create a task from this chat” (testing the Planner integration).
- If a sub-agent fails, target feedback to Microsoft.
4. Check the error log
- If an error code appears:
- Press Win + R and type eventvwr.msc to view the Windows Application Log for errors from Microsoft 365.
- In the Copilot interface, type: “Show the last error details” (supported by some versions).
5. Submit Feedback
- From within the application where the problem occurs:
- Click Help > Feedback and check the box “Send diagnostic data”.
