My question is about agents within M365 Copilot Chat. I have been unable to successfully get a non-M365 Copilot license holder to CREATE an agent, despite following guides available. The option simply does not show up unless users have a full M365 Copilot license. Long thread here (https://www.reddit.com/r/microsoft_365_copilot/comments/1i89mhh/how_do_i_enable_my_users_to_create_an_agent_in/ of similar complaints without any known resolution. Is there an estimate on when this will work?

Users must have maker rights to author agents. There are two ways to grant maker rights:
Option 1:
- From the new Power Platform admin center, under Manage and Tenant Settings, select Copilot Studio authors to edit the default configuration.
- Choose an existing group that you created previously in Microsoft Entra.
Option 2:
- Assign your users the $0 Microsoft Copilot Studio user license via the Microsoft 365 admin center. Learn how to assign user licenses and manage access.
Admins can author agents using the full Copilot Studio authoring experience and provide them for their users. Get detailed instructions.
Also trying to click that link for $0 Microsoft Copilot Studio license as tenant admin just leads me to

I think this does not work for Enterprise Agreement customers.Yes. Option 1 is what i have done but it still does not work. Seems to be common in that thread i posted where the Create Agent still will not show up.

Is this related to the Exchange issue you listed above?
Have you tried the second option? The agent builder button through Copilot Chat is rolling out soon. In the meantime, you should be able to do this via Copilot Studio.
