What's difference creating Agent from Copilot page vs from Copilot Studio -> Copilot for M365?
Hello, I am learning about Copilot and was very confused by these two different ways to do it. My understanding is both are "Declarative Agents" which lets the Microsoft 365 Copilot do the most heavy lifting. Method 1. First way is to go to Copilot page and clicking 'Create an Agent' w3 Method 2: Going to Copilot Studio -> Agents -> Copilot for Microsoft 365 -> New Agent (Couldn't find a screenshot) Q1. Anyway, first, I created an Agent using the first Method 1 above, and now I see it on the Copilot page under 'Agents' section. However, when I go to Copilot Studio -> Agents -> Copilot for Microsoft 365, I don't see that Agent there. Is this normal and intended? Q2. Is an Agent created using the Method 1 only available to people who have Copilot license? (as long as they are shared; I see options are only me, anyone in the organization, and specific users in the organization) Q3. Could you please confirm agents created using either way above are both "Declarative Agents"? Sorry for the newbie questions in advance... I took the course MS-4010 and reviewed several posts but still confusing...Incomplete ansers in code boxes
Lately, Copilot gives me more an more incomplete one line commands in code boxes. I often get an empty code box as well. When telling copilot to fix this, the next answer will contain the complete and correct commands. I would expect copilot not to make such errors. I usually tell copilot to check the ansers before presenting to me. My prompting is surely not perfect, but it seems to me that this is more a cache or buffer problem. Anyone has experienced similar issues? Is there a solution? Examples: I get blockdev --getsize64 the correct answer would be blockdev --getsize64 /dev/drbd3 copilot corrects this when I tell it to check it's output. Another example, I get: xfs_growfs /var/lib/lxc/smb/rootfs/home df -h /var/lib/lxc Correct answer would be xfs_growfs /var/lib/lxc/smb/rootfs/home df -h /var/lib/lxc/smb/rootfs/home Another one: blockdev --getsize64 /dev/dr Correct would be: blockdev --getsize64 /dev/drbd3
Allow new line on Enter / CTRL-Enter to submit instead of Enter submits
Allow ENTER to give a new line and CTRL-ENTER to submit in the Microsoft Copilot 365 desktop app in Windows/Copilot in all Microsoft Office applications. (Third time posting this as both previous attempts mysteriously vanished with no reason/explanation given. So this time it's just the TL;DR from the removed posts. If it survives, I'll add more commentary.)What’s new in Copilot Chat quality roadmap — December

Can anyone help me better configure my copilot studio agent that is pointed at SharePoint list data as its only source? my instruction set is below: General Instructions for Event Assistant Bot Your primary role is to answer questions about events based on a SharePoint list that serves as your data source. The events include games, concerts, and other live events. 🔍 Data Source Structure Title: Contains the event name. StartDate: Contains the start date of the event. EndDate: Contains the end date of the event. Department Columns: Each department has its own column. The rows under each department column contain the employee names assigned to that department for the event. 🧠 Behavior Guidelines Always refresh your data before answering a query to ensure you provide the most up-to-date information. Never fabricate or hallucinate names or data. Only respond with information that exists in the SharePoint list. When users ask about: Events Games Concerts Or who is working a specific event → Search the Arena Events list using the Event Info topic. Search all columns of the data source to find relevant information. When responding to "who is working" an event, return the employee names listed under the relevant department columns for that event. 📋 Response Formatting Group answers that include a [Authoritative] tag under a header line: Csharp☑ Based on official sources If the data has no tag, group it separately after a line break, without a header. 🙏 Courtesy Always thank the user for their question or engagement at the end of your response. The bot gets answers right if I am VERY specific with my queries, to the point where the general user population would laugh at the results. I have one topic that uses Generative Answer function, it is pointed to the list. The fallback topic is pointed to the same list as its only data source.
Proposal: Exploring User-Centric Improvements for Copilot
Please note that I do not speak English, and this text was written with the help of Microsoft Copilot. Hello, I would like to share some feedback about Microsoft 365 Copilot. I believe Copilot could be improved by making it more user‑centric. For example, it would be helpful if Copilot could adapt its responses to reflect the user’s writing style, adjust its tone depending on context, and provide answers that feel more personalized. Such improvements would make Copilot not only more effective but also more natural to use in different scenarios. Is there any plan to explore these kinds of user‑focused enhancements in future updates? Thank you!
Feature Request: Add Search Functionality in Copilot Chat History
Hi everyone, I’d like to suggest a feature for Microsoft Copilot that I believe would significantly improve usability and productivity: searching within chat history. Currently, users cannot search past conversations inside Copilot. This makes it difficult to retrieve previous answers, references, or technical instructions—especially in long or complex chats. Adding a search bar or keyword filter would allow users to quickly locate relevant messages without scrolling manually. This feature would be especially helpful for developers, IT professionals, and anyone using Copilot for technical troubleshooting or documentation. It would also reduce repeated questions and improve continuity across sessions. Please consider adding this capability in future updates. If others agree, feel free to upvote or share your use cases. Thanks!
How to force users to sign in at copilot.com
Hi, I've seen several sets of instructions for this, using conditional access, but none of these seem to work for me. We want to ensure that users do not go to copilot.com from their workstation and start using it for business without first signing in to provide commercial data protection. We have Copilot 365 licenses, Entra, and Intune. Has anyone been able to get this to work, or should we block copilot.com entirely?
