Looking for ideas: Reducing "Allow" prompts when using SharePoint Knowledge
Hello community members! I'm hoping to get some advice from people who may have come across a similar challenge with their Copilot Studio "SharePoint knowledge retrieval" agents 🤞 Current setup Agent set up in Copilot Studio and published to channels - M365 Copilot and Teams Agent is connected to 4 SharePoint folders (I'm using Method#1 - see below screenshot for reference). This is essential because the documents inside the folders contain both text and image-based content. This is the only method that brings results Users have permissions to access the content in these folders Problem We are currently preparing to roll out this agent but we've hit a user experience issue that is becoming a blocker for moving forward. When a user interacts with the agent for the first time, they are asked to click "Allow" ... 4 times .. one for each of the folder that the agent is connected to This experience feels heavy for users (based on our pilot feedback) and people give up after the first or second time because they think it is not working. In spite of comms and a video about having to repeat this action until done. We want the first time experience to be as smooth as possible to drive adoption. Also, we are going to expand the solution to include more folders soon - so there is also a concern that number of consent prompts could grow further. What I've tried Used Method#2 to connect to SharePoint folders. While this didn't pop up the "Allow" prompts, as indicated earlier, this approach doesn't work because it doesn't return any results from documents as they contain both text and image content. Tried Method#1 to connect to the library (and use instructions to indicate necessary folders) - this didn't work because the method doesn't allow to connect to libraries. Note - I cannot restructure the library and put all the documents into one folder because that's the way the documents have been maintained for a long time & direct links to the folders are being used across the organization via. emails, decks etc. Looking for advice Has anyone found a way to reduce or eliminate these consent prompts? Are there any other recommendations on using SharePoint as a knowledge source that respects user permissions without these consent prompts? Does anyone know why Method#1 and Method#2 have different user experiences where the first one prompts for consent and the second doesn't?
Copilot Studio agents problems connecting to Sharepoint knowledge source
Hello, Since last week users in my tenant are experimenting issues regarding the connection between copilot studio agents and Sharepoint. The agents are not able to extract information from Sharepoint sites, printing there is not information in the Sharepoint site regarding the user's question when that information is in Sharepoint. These agents used to work well till last week. Does have been any update in Microsoft 365 services that can be affecting these agents ability to retrieve information from Sharepoint?
Deterministic way to mark generative answer output as AI-generated - AI Act
Hi all, We have a text-based RAG agent in Copilot Studio using the Azure AI Search connector as the knowledge source. It's customer-facing. We need every generated turn to carry a machine-readable marker identifying it as AI-generated, not just a visible disclaimer line. Instructing the model to append something isn't acceptable for us, because it's non-deterministic and can be prompt-injected away. Has anyone found a cleaner pattern? Like how to do it?
All Copilot Studio Workflow Tools Suddenly Returning HTTP 403 Before Execution
Hello Copilot Studio Community, I am experiencing an authorization issue with multiple workflows connected to an agent built using the Copilot Studio new experience and new Workflows experience. These workflows worked successfully for multiple users yesterday. Today, all workflow tools connected to the agent began returning an immediate HTTP 403 authorization error. I did not intentionally change the agent, workflows, environment, or workflow permissions before the issue started. Error message: You don’t have permission to use this tool. You’re signed in, but access to this resource is blocked. Error details: Authorization - 403 Example error information: Status: Failed Error message: Flow returned HTTP 403 Error code: Http403 Inner error code: NotSpecified Tool duration: Approximately 93 milliseconds Configuration: - Copilot Studio new agent experience - Copilot Studio new Workflows experience - Agent and workflows are in the same Power Platform environment - Workflows use the "When an agent calls the workflow" trigger - Each workflow includes a "Respond to the agent" action - Workflows are saved and published - Agent is saved and published Observed behavior: The problem affects several independent workflows, including: - New-request submission - Current-user identity resolution - Approval decisions - Requester justification - Executive decisions - Fulfillment updates For every affected workflow: - The agent fills the workflow inputs correctly. - The tool call fails almost immediately. - No corresponding run appears in the workflow Activity history. - The workflow trigger is never reached. - No workflow actions execute. Because no workflow run is created, the rejection appears to occur before workflow execution, possibly within the Copilot Studio agent-to-workflow authorization or invocation layer. Troubleshooting already completed: - Confirmed that all workflows are published. - Confirmed that the agent is published. - Tested in a completely new conversation. - Removed an affected workflow tool from the agent. - Saved the agent. - Added the same published workflow back to the agent. - Reconfigured and verified the tool inputs. - Republished the agent. - Confirmed that no workflow Activity run is created. - Confirmed that the issue affects multiple workflows rather than one specific workflow. Removing and re-adding the workflow did not resolve the problem. Questions for the community: 1. Is anyone else currently experiencing HTTP 403 errors when Copilot Studio agents invoke workflows? 2. Is this a known issue or regression in the new Workflows experience? 3. Is there an environment-level or tenant-level permission that controls agent-to-workflow invocation? 4. Could a tenant policy, Conditional Access change, service principal, connection reference, or workflow-sharing configuration cause all workflow tools to fail simultaneously? 5. Where can an administrator find detailed authorization logs when the workflow never creates a run? 6. Has anyone found a workaround for this issue? Any guidance or confirmation from others experiencing the same behavior would be appreciated. I can provide screenshots, complete error details, timestamps, and additional configuration information if needed. Thank you.Is My Code Safe with GitHub Copilot?

Scout Not Working After Upgrade from 0.23.331 to 0.23.578
I have been using Scout actively and after upgrading to 0.23.578 the device registration with GitHub has stopped working. I get to the point where it asks me for the device ID, GitHub accepts it then shows "sign-in could not be completed". I'm wondering if anybody else has experienced this. I'm inclined to think it is a new bug since the added the Enterprise host in this version.
Copilot pain points....
Guys… seriously… we need some improvements here. I’m not asking Copilot to solve quantum physics or decode alien transmissions. I’m asking a Microsoft program for help with a Microsoft program. You’d think that would be the one scenario where Copilot would shine, right? Like, “Ah yes, my home turf, allow me to demonstrate competence.” But no. I can’t even get Copilot to correctly explain how to do basic SharePoint tasks. BASIC. As in, “click the thing, then click the other thing.” Instead I get a TED Talk about SharePoint philosophy and a guided meditation on patience. And then there’s the folder comparison fiasco. I want Copilot to do something so simple it should practically be a reflex: Compare two folders on my hard drive and tell me if they’re identical. Copilot’s response? “Absolutely, I can do that!” Followed immediately by an ever‑expanding scavenger hunt of things I apparently need to do first. It’s like asking someone to hand you a screwdriver and they say, “Sure, but first you’ll need to assemble this IKEA shelving unit, install three dependencies, sacrifice a goat, and agree to a quest.” I’m glad to hear you’re merging all the copilots into one “super Copilot.” Great idea. Fantastic. But let’s be honest — I’m praying the one that survives is the personal Copilot, because Copilot 365… whew. That thing feels like it was built by a committee that communicates exclusively through interpretive dance. And don’t even get me started on the wrapper versions. Those are like Copilot wearing a Halloween costume of itself, but the costume is made of cardboard and disappointment. And by the way — I’m STILL waiting for Copilot to create an app or program that automatically files my Outlook emails into folders. This is not a moon landing. This is not a Mars rover. This is not a Nobel Prize category. This is a simple, everyday, normal-person task. Yet somehow Copilot treats it like I’ve asked it to build the next Windows release from scratch using only a spoon and positive thinking. Come on, guys. We love the vision. We love the potential. But the basics need to work before the magic tricks do.365 on iPhone cannot access work data
Microsoft 365 Copilot on iPhone recognizes that work data is connected. Enterprise Search can access my work content, and grounding works in Safari and on my other devices. However, Copilot Chat on this 1 phone does not return grounded results and behaves as if enterprise grounding is unavailable. Reinstalling, signing out/in, and resetting network settings did not resolve the issue.Can Copilot help create development plan suggestions after a review?
After performance reviews, we want managers to turn feedback into practical development plans, but the quality is inconsistent. Some managers write clear next steps, others keep it very generic. Has anyone used Copilot or another AI workflow to suggest development actions based on review feedback, goals, or competencies? Could I build an agent specific to this? Could I create a subskill that standardizes this? Should I go for something third party?Microsoft's Copilot: A Frustrating Flop in AI-Powered Productivity
Microsoft's Copilot was supposed to be the game-changer in productivity, but it's quickly proving to be a massive disappointment. The idea was simple: integrate AI directly into Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and other Office tools to make our lives easier. But when it comes to actually performing specific functions, Copilot falls flat. Here’s the problem: when you ask Copilot to alter a document, modify an Excel file, or adjust a PowerPoint presentation, it’s practically useless. Instead of performing the tasks as requested, it often leaves you hanging with vague suggestions or instructions. Users don't want to be told how to perform a task—they want it done. This is what an AI assistant should do: execute commands efficiently, not just offer advice. What makes this even more frustrating is that other AI tools, like ChatGPT, can handle these tasks effortlessly. When you ask ChatGPT to perform a specific function, it does so without hesitation. It’s able to understand the request and deliver exactly what’s needed. But Copilot? It struggles with the basics, and that’s unacceptable, especially from a company like Microsoft. It’s frankly embarrassing that Microsoft can’t get this right. The whole point of integrating AI into these tools was to streamline workflows and boost productivity. But if Copilot can’t even manage simple tasks like formatting a document or adjusting a spreadsheet, then what’s the point? Users don’t need another tool that tells them how to do something—they need one that does it for them. Microsoft, you’ve missed the mark with Copilot. It's not just a minor inconvenience; it's a serious flaw that undermines the value of your Office suite. When other AI tools can easily accomplish what Copilot can't, it's time to reevaluate. Users expect more, and frankly, they deserve more for their investment. What’s been your experience with Copilot? Is anyone else finding it as frustrating as I am? Let’s talk about it.
Saving a Model Generated File in SharePoint - New Copilot Studio
Hi everyone, I have spent the last two days trying to solve a problem that to me should be a straightforward functionality. I have an agent I made which generates Word file reports. The agent is Cluade Opus 4.8 and it generates the file wonderfully as per my brand guidelines. The document in not a simple content file. Rather these documents can get complex based on the user requirement. Currently the document generates fine and the user gets a popup to download the file. I however need the file to be saved in our share SharePoint library. I created a workflow tool that accepts a file input and then saves it to SharePoint, however when I tried to configure this tool in the agent, the file input parameter was not showing. I then tried to set up a workflow which accepts a url, but the agent cannot seem to access any url or pass it to my workflow. Using a create file tool within the agent and having the agent fill in the file name and content parameters was slow, and the agent was actually attempting to rewrite the file byte-by-byte which lead to the file being re-created and is not scalable for large files. Based on the agent, this is how the file is currently saved: "The file is saved inside my sandboxed container at: /app/created/Sample_Report.docx /app/created/ is a special output directory: any file I place there is automatically packaged by the platform and returned to you as the chat attachment (the Sample_Report.docx chip you see). This is a private, ephemeral location inside my container — it is not a shared network path, and it is not the SharePoint library. Neither you nor the SharePoint tool can reach /app/created/ directly; the platform's attachment mechanism is the only bridge out of it, and as we established, that bridge delivers a direct download rather than a hosted HTTPS URL. So to be precise: the file exists only (a) here in my container at /app/created/Sample_Report.docx, and (b) as the downloadable attachment the platform generated from it. It has not been saved to SharePoint." I need this functionality working as I will have several automations flows around report generation so no human will be available to download the file from within Copilot. Note: I cannot use the old copilot studio as the file generation capabilities are not on par with the new copilot studio experience. The same agent model does not output files, and the create word file node does not output files at the depth and formatting complexity I require. Can anyone please help with a reliable way to get the file save in SharePoint from the New Copilot Studio experience? I'm at my wits end here.Custom Skills in Copilot Cowork
Skills are specialized instruction sets that tell Copilot Cowork exactly how to think, act, and respond for a specific task. There are two types: Out-of-the-box skills – built and maintained by Microsoft and Anthropic, automatically invoked based on conversation context (~13 available currently) Custom skills – instruction sets you write yourself, defining a specific process, format, and set of standards for Cowork to follow every time the skill is triggered Custom skills are really where Cowork starts to feel less like a generic assistant and more like a tool built around how you actually work. Once a skill is defined, Cowork applies the same process, format, and standards every time it's triggered, so you're not re-explaining your requirements in every conversation. For an in-depth tutorial on how to leverage skills in Copilot Cowork, check out the video below 👇 https://youtu.be/MnJmzZvqjJAFix: Hyperlinks render as plain text in Copilot app (but work in the test pane in Copilot Studio)
My use case SharePoint knowledge-retrieval agent built in Copilot Studio to answer employee questions from internal policy and guidance documents. These documents, in addition to text content, contain embedded hyperlinks to internal apps and resources (intranet pages, expense app, ticketing tools etc.). It was important for these links to be surfaced in the agent response so employees can directly follow the link - so they needed to be clickable hyperlinks, otherwise the answer was effectively incomplete. Note that I am not using specific topics/actions to create generative answers. I'm relying solely on instructions. The problem Hyperlinks from the source documents appeared as clickable links in Copilot Studio test pane, but when the same agent was published and accessed via the M365 Copilot app, the links were displayed as plain text - not clickable. My original instructions told the agent to include hyperlinks in content & I also verified that the hyperlinks in the source documents were all absolute URLs. 🙌 What changes finally worked Keeping the original "include links" directive and adding a strict formatting rule that requires both Markdown formatting and an HTML <a> tag wrapper, with the URL preserved exactly. The final instruction lines I included: If hyperlinks are contained within the source content and related to the answer, ALWAYS include them in the response. ALWAYS format the link as full Markdown and preserve the URLs exactly within an HTML <a> tag. What was the problem Copilot Studio is a forgiving renderer. M365 Copilot app uses a stricter markdown rendered that can supress hyperlinks that don't come be default in the format it expects. Hence, including an explicit hyperlink formatting in the instructions helps. I hope this helps someone and saves a few hours in troubleshooting the issue 😉
Microsoft AI Agent Creator Associate Certificate
Hello everyone, I have a question about the Microsoft AI Agent Creator Associate certification. I’m passionate about artificial intelligence and Microsoft Copilot Studio. I’m currently taking the training course and working toward earning the Microsoft AI Agent Creator Associate certification. My question is: Will earning this certification improve my chances of getting a job at Microsoft? If anyone in this community has earned this certification or has experience with it, I’d really appreciate your feedback. Has it helped you get hired by Microsoft or one of its partners? Thank you in advance for your advice and insights!Feedback: Loop, To Do, and Copilot/Work IQ Have Fundamental Data-Discoverability Gaps
**Category:** Microsoft Loop / Microsoft To Do / Microsoft 365 Copilot (Work IQ) **Summary:** A day-long, hands-on investigation (creating, sharing, and re-locating the same task list through multiple M365 surfaces) surfaced several structural issues that prevent Copilot from reliably grounding on a user's own daily task content — even when using Microsoft's own recommended tools. Posting this as consolidated feedback rather than separate one-off tickets because the issues share a common root cause: **fragmented storage architecture that isn't transparent to end users, and inconsistent Copilot/Work IQ coverage across first-party productivity apps.** --- ## 1. Loop "My workspace" content is invisible to Copilot/Search — and there's no UI signal telling users this When a Loop page/component is created directly in the Loop app (loop.cloud.microsoft), specifically in **My workspace**, it is stored in a user-owned **SharePoint Embedded container** (internally referenced as `CSP_...` in URLs). This container: - Has no site interface and is **not surfaced in standard SharePoint/Graph search** by default (confirmed via Microsoft's own SharePoint Embedded dev docs: *"SPE content is in the SharePoint index but not surfaced in standard SharePoint searching"*). - Is **not listed** in Work IQ's documented "Supported functionality" (Email, Meetings, OneDrive/SharePoint documents, Teams messages, Planner plans, Enterprise search — no mention of this container type). - Cannot be opened/read via Microsoft Graph search or Copilot grounding, regardless of how many times the content is re-shared via email or Teams link. **Reproduction:** Create a Loop page in My workspace → copy the page's share link → paste into an email or Teams message → send to yourself. The email/message is indexed and searchable, but the **linked Loop content is not** — Copilot can see that a link was shared, but cannot read what's on the other end. **Why this matters:** Users have no way to know, from the UI, whether the Loop content they just created lives in an indexable location or a hidden one. The same "Loop Components" button behaves completely differently depending on entry point (see #2). --- ## 2. The exact same UI action ("Loop Components" button / sharing a component) produces content in *different, non-obvious storage backends* depending on where it's triggered Through direct testing, the following was observed: | Creation path | Resulting storage | Discoverable by Copilot/Search? | | Loop app → My workspace → new page | SharePoint Embedded (`CSP_...` container) | ❌ No | | Loop app → page → convert element to "Component" → copy link → paste in email | Still the same `CSP_...` container | ❌ No | | **Teams chat** → Loop Components button → new component → send | OneDrive ("Microsoft Teams Chat Files" folder) | ✅ Yes | | Loop component shared as `-my.sharepoint.com/personal/...` link | Personal OneDrive | ✅ Yes | There is **no visual indicator** in the Loop or Teams UI that distinguishes these two families of storage. A user cannot tell, by looking at a component, whether it will ever be indexed. This makes "where should I put my recurring task tracker" an genuinely difficult, undocumented question for end users — we had to reverse-engineer the answer by inspecting URL domains across multiple test messages. **Ask:** Either (a) unify storage so all Loop content is indexable by default, or (b) add a visible badge/tooltip in the Loop UI indicating "this content is stored in your personal workspace and won't be searchable/Copilot-discoverable outside this page" vs. "this content is in a shared, indexable location." --- ## 3. Loop "add to workspace" appears to create a shortcut, not a true move — ownership stays with the original creator/location Adding an existing Loop component to a different (e.g., team) workspace generated a `.url` shortcut file rather than relocating the actual `.loop` file. The original file's location (and therefore its retention/discoverability characteristics) did not change. This isn't clearly communicated in the product — "add to workspace" reads like the content now *belongs* to that workspace. --- ## 4. Retention/discoverability interplay between Teams chat cleanup policies and Loop files needs clearer documentation Per Microsoft's own retention docs, Teams message retention policies explicitly **exclude** files ("Emails and files that you use with Teams aren't included in retention policies for Teams"), and Loop files created in Teams chat land in the auto-generated "Microsoft Teams Chat Files" OneDrive folder, which does **not** appear on the list of folders with built-in expiration (unlike "Microsoft Copilot Chat Files," which auto-deletes after 30 days). This is good news for users worried about losing content when chats are periodically cleared — but it is **not documented anywhere user-facing**, and users are left to guess (or ask a forum) whether their task tracker will survive a chat retention sweep. **Ask:** Add a plain-language note to Loop/Teams documentation clarifying that Loop files persist independently of chat message retention, unless a tenant admin has separately applied a retention label to that specific OneDrive folder. --- ## 5. Microsoft To Do is officially recommended for "individual tasks" but is **not included in Work IQ's supported data sources** Microsoft's own guidance says: *"To work on individual tasks... start with To Do."* However, Work IQ's documented supported functionality list (Email, Meetings/calendar, OneDrive/SharePoint docs, Teams messages, People, **Microsoft Planner plans**, Enterprise search) explicitly names Planner but **omits To Do entirely**. This means: - Copilot Chat cannot answer "what's on my To Do list today" — it has no grounding access to To Do task data at all. - The only path to integrate To Do with an agent is a custom-built Graph API plugin (`/me/todo/lists`), which requires developer effort most end users can't do themselves. - Multiple community threads (Tech Community, 2025–2026) confirm this gap has been raised repeatedly with no resolution: *"Doesn't look like Co-Pilot can natively interact with To Do just yet."* **Ask:** Add Microsoft To Do to Work IQ's supported data sources. This is the most basic, universally-needed personal productivity data source in the entire suite, and it's currently a blind spot for the product Microsoft itself recommends as the default answer for personal task tracking. --- ## 6. To Do's flagged-email task preview truncates mid-sentence with no way to see the rest without leaving the app When an email is flagged and appears in To Do's "Flagged email" list, the task detail pane shows a **truncated preview** of the email body — often cutting off mid-sentence at exactly the point where the actionable instruction is (e.g., "...we'll be looking for the item from" — no continuation). The only way to read the rest is to click "Open in Outlook" and leave the app entirely, defeating the purpose of a quick task-review pane. There is unused whitespace below the preview in the current UI, suggesting this is a low-effort truncation limit rather than a real space constraint. This has been raised in the Microsoft Community forum since **January 2024** with zero replies/action: *"Having to open each email in a separate window is highly inefficient... Ideally, the email preview should take up whatever space remains in that righthand column."* **Ask:** Either expand the preview pane to show full email body (space is clearly available), or make it resizable/scrollable so users aren't forced to leave the app to read one more sentence. --- ## 7. Overall: four overlapping personal/team task tools (To Do, Planner, Loop task lists, Teams Tasks app) with unclear, undocumented boundaries and uneven Copilot support Each tool markets itself as suitable for slightly different scenarios, but: - Sync between Loop task components and Planner reportedly creates a **new Plan per Loop component** rather than linking to an existing one — a bug/limitation raised on Tech Community since at least Oct 2025, still unresolved as of mid-2026, and explicitly called out by a commenter as something that "should have been a release blocker." - "Add to Microsoft To Do" from Teams Copilot meeting recap action items has been intermittently available/unavailable, per community reports, with no clear roadmap status. - None of this is explained in a single, current, authoritative "which tool for which scenario, and what's the Copilot support level for each" reference. **Ask:** Publish (and keep updated) a single official comparison page that includes not just feature differences between To Do/Planner/Loop/Teams Tasks, but explicitly states **Copilot/Work IQ grounding support level** for each, so users can make an informed choice up front instead of discovering gaps through trial and error. --- ## Why this matters Individually, each of these is a minor rough edge. Together, they mean that a fairly universal, basic task — "let Copilot help me track and recall my daily to-do list" — currently has **no reliable, fully-supported path** using only first-party Microsoft tools, despite Microsoft actively promoting an "AI-native," Copilot-everywhere vision across the 450M-seat M365 install base. A technically proficient user (myself) needed roughly a full day of trial-and-error, URL-inspection, and cross-referencing public docs to arrive at a partial workaround. That is not a reasonable bar for the average user, and it undercuts trust in Copilot's promise of "ask me anything about your work." Happy to provide full repro steps, screenshots, or file/URL samples (redacted) if useful for triage.Error Exporting Solution - Copilot Studio Agent with Confluence MCP “search” Tool
Hi all, I'm running into an issue when trying to export a solution that contains an agent built in Copilot Studio using the Confluence MCP “search” tool (Rovo search). I’m hoping someone can help clarify whether additional steps are required, or if this is a product limitation/bug. Scenario I’m building an agent that uses the Confluence MCP connector, specifically the Rovo “search” tool, combined with agent instructions to filter a specific Confluence space. Everything works fine in my developer environment, and now I’m preparing to move the solution to QA. However, I'm blocked at the export step. Steps I Followed Created the agent Added and configured Confluence MCP Selected only the “search” tool Set up agent instructions Created a new solution Added the agent to the solution Exported the solution Received the following error: Solution "xxxxxx" failed to export: Exporting connection reference <masked_connection_reference_id> for a custom connector requires the custom connector to be added to a Dataverse solution. Please add connector <masked_connector_id> to a solution and retry. What I Already Checked When I added the agent to the solution, only the Connection References were added automatically — no Custom Connectors were included. So, I manually added the Confluence MCP Custom Connector to the solution. Despite doing so, the export still fails with the same error. Additional Observations If I create a similar agent that uses only the searchConfluenceUsingCql tool (not the Rovo “search” tool), the solution exports without issues and I can successfully import it into QA. This makes me suspect that the problem is specific to the Rovo “search” capability in the MCP. Question Has anyone encountered this before? Do different steps need to be followed when an agent uses the Rovo “search” tool in the Confluence MCP? Or could it be a known issue? Any guidance or workarounds would be greatly appreciated. Thank youuu!"Sorry, this conversation has reached its limit. Let's start a new chat."
Hi All, We're currently using Copilot for Microsoft 365 in our business and I'm finding it incredibly annoying when Copilot tells me this. "Sorry, this conversation has reached its limit. Let's start a new chat." When I asked Copilot why, this is what I receive. "The message “Sorry, this conversation has reached its limit. Let’s start a new chat.” means that the current conversation has reached the maximum number of turns or messages allowed. Each conversation with me, Copilot Pro, has a limit on the number of turns it can take. Once this limit is reached, the conversation cannot continue further in the same thread. Starting a new chat will initiate a new conversation where you can continue to ask questions or request assistance. This is a measure to ensure optimal performance and user experience. I hope this clarifies your query! 😊" When I asked Copilot what the limit is, this is what I receive. "I’m sorry, but I can’t provide the exact number of turns or messages allowed in a conversation. The limit is set to ensure optimal performance and user experience. However, once the limit is reached, you can always start a new conversation. Please let me know if there’s anything else I can assist you with! 😊" I'd love to understand the logic for such a limitation. Can anyone kindly explain this is plain simple English please? Thanks! Cheers, Eddie | Zhamatix
