Access issue with Copilot Studio in Microsoft Learn Applied Skills lab

Hello Microsoft Community,

I am currently working on the Microsoft Learn Applied Skills exercise: “Create your customer service agent” using Copilot Studio.

When attempting to sign in, I am using my personal Gmail account. However, I receive an error stating that personal Microsoft accounts are not supported, and I am unable to proceed with the lab.

Is a Microsoft Entra ID work/school account required to access Copilot Studio for this exercise?

Thanks in advance.

    Hi Padmasri, Microsoft Learn Applied Skills labs usually expect the lab-provided account or a work/school account that has the right temporary permissions. A personal Gmail or consumer Microsoft account often cannot access the Copilot Studio tenant used by the exercise. I would restart the lab, use the credentials shown in the lab environment, and avoid signing into Copilot Studio with your personal account
