Copilot Chat
40 TopicsCopilot Notebooks chat and file creation
I recently have access to the Notebooks in Copilot after the recent update, including chat search!, when using chat within a created notebook, has anyone else seen an issue with Copilot making the document actually available for download? I've tried different ways and only get it telling me the file is ready to download in this location: "sandbox:/mnt/data/[filename is listed here]". My first thought was maybe it wa just putting this newly generated file into the References within the Notebook...but it was not. If I get out of the chat in a Notebook and just start a new web or work chat and ask for the same file to be created, it works as usual with a link to download.3.2KViews9likes13CommentsQuestion about Copilot Studio licensing...
Hello, I had few questions about Copilot Studio Tenant License and also its Copilot Studio User License, and any insights or confirmations would be great. We are trying to Question 1. I read on the documentation that Copliot Studio User License needs to be assigned to users to allow them to create Agents (after purchasing Copliot Studio Tenant License). Is this "User License" free to assign to users and is there a limit? Question 2. Can users with Copilot Studio User License create an Agent and published to this below Copliot Chat page? When publishing an Agent, can we only make it available to a group of users? My understanding is Agent's response made to any users will deduct from monthly 25,000 cap Question 3. In SharePoint Online, I know users with Microsoft 365 Copliot License will see this Copilot button at top-right corner and use Agents... Is it possible to create Agents and deploy to SharePoint Online sites under Copliot Studio Tenant/User License? If so, will users then see the same Copliot button and interact with Agents? Question 4. I have Microsoft 365 Copliot License and I love how it summarizes after a Teams meeting. If I remove that M365 Copliot License and get the company gets Copilot Studio Tenant License, will I still get a summary?23Views0likes0CommentsPainful behavior of "slash" ("/") in chat prompts
I know about the /commands (/reset, /help, ...) in Copilot powered applications where hitting "/" triggers auto-completion suggestions. Here we are talking about Copilot chat (Teams or Web app for instance) Each time you hit the "/" key, it pops up a menu inviting you to upload files, preventing you from going on typing until you hit the <esc> key. That's too disruptive. That would be ok if the upload menu what acting like a suggestion -- You may select with arrow keys if you wish, or just go on typing if you just need a "/" in your prompts. Please consider disabling this "feature" or I at least enhancing it so the upload menu is not modal and gets dismissed when you go on typing. Comments positive or negative are welcome, thumbs up too đ730Views31likes19CommentsAdd a "Print Conversation" Feature in Microsoft Copilot
I'm warming up to using Copilot for quick answers and support. It is even better, more detailed and more honest about Microsoft shortcomings than Microsofts forum and support staff. But one thing thatâs noticeably missing in Copilot is a simple way to print or export parts of a conversation. Many apps and websites offer a âPrintâ button for selected sections, allowing users to easily create a PDF or paper copy of important content. In Copilot, this would be especially useful for saving guidance, troubleshooting steps, or creative content in a clean format immediately. Currently, the only way is to manually copy text and paste it into another app, which feels like unnecessary extra work. A built-in âPrintâ or âExport to PDFâ option would greatly improve usability and workflow efficiency. (This feedback was formulated with help from Copilot. I amended some sentiments of Copilotbeing too full of it self. Still it is much nicer than I would have written it! ;) Thank Copilot for that!41Views0likes0CommentsNot getting Table data from Word file which present in SharePoint Online Document Library
Hi, I have Copilot agent created and configure knowledge source as one of Document library from SharePoint Online. I have couple of word files which are present in the library having multiple table formatted data in it. While prompting to get data of table from word document agent is not able to get that data. Note - Word document isn't in fixed format/template. Limitation Note from Microsoft - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365-copilot/extensibility/optimize-content-retrieval?source=recommendations#remove-special-formatting How to resolve this problem so that agent should work correctly to get the table formatted data from word document ?31Views1like1CommentReasoning Models in Microsoft Copilot: Whoâs Doing the Thinking?
In addition to AmeliaHernandezâ wonderful article "Copilot Chat vsus. Microsoft 365 Copilot What's the difference?". Microsoft Copilot is not a single product â itâs a modular ecosystem powered by a range of different language models (LLMs), depending on where, how, and with which license you're using it. In this post, weâll walk through which reasoning models are used in Copilot, what theyâre best suited for, and why it matters for IT pros, administrators, and business users alike. đ§ What Is a âReasoning Modelâ? Unlike standard text generators, reasoning models are designed to: Combine information from multiple sources Apply logical steps and draw conclusions Respond with contextual awareness Handle structured and unstructured tasks effectively The model chosen by Microsoft impacts: Quality and depth of the output Speed and resource efficiency Ability to analyze or automate tasks Data access and compliance safeguards đŚ Current Model Usage in Microsoft Copilot đ§âđť Copilot Chat (for individual, business & enterprise users â without Copilot for M365 add-on) âĄď¸ Model: OpenAI o1 Used in: The free Copilot version at https://copilot.microsoft.com Microsoft 365 Business & Enterprise plans (Standard use without Copilot add-on) Edge and Bing integration Also powers the âThink Deeperâ feature in Copilot Chat This model offers solid everyday performance and decent contextual understanding but is limited in reasoning depth and enterprise grounding. đź Microsoft 365 Copilot âĄď¸ Model: OpenAI o4 Available in Word, Excel, Outlook, Teams, PowerPoint, and more. Leverages Microsoft Graph grounding to access user and org data Provides significantly deeper reasoning and structured task handling Ideal for knowledge work, document creation, planning, and more This is Microsoftâs most advanced reasoning model in production đ§Ş Copilot Agents e.g., Analyst, Research, Planning tools âĄď¸ Model: OpenAI o3-mini New agent-based Copilot features use this lightweight model: Optimized for structured, data-driven tasks Supports recurring analysis and planning workflows Can access Graph and recent content, but with focused scope đ Security Copilot (Microsoft Defender etc.) âĄď¸ Model stack includes: OpenAI GPT-4 Phi-3 (optimized for factual accuracy and speed) Microsoftâs internal Threat Intelligence RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) for contextual enrichment Security Copilot is tailored for security analysts and SOC teams to provide actionable insights, natural language summarization, and risk reasoning. âď¸ Copilot Studio & Power Platform Copilot âĄď¸ Uses a combination of: Azure AI Services OpenAI models o1âo4, depending on use case Custom GPTs (via Copilot Studio) Logical reasoning layers and connectors to Dataverse & business apps These solutions are ideal for custom workflows, low-code automation, and industry-specific copilots built by organizations themselves. đ Why This Matters đ Microsoft doesnât use a one-size-fits-all model â it uses the right model for the job. đ§Š The model you get depends on your license, use case, and environment. đĄ Copilot for M365 (o4) provides strongest contextual reasoning, while lighter models like o1 and o3-mini power more general or task-specific use. Knowing whatâs under the hood helps you: Set realistic expectations for your users and leadership Understand licensing impact on capabilities Optimize prompts and workflows for better output Stay compliant by knowing when and how data is accessed đĄ Pro Tip: If you're only using Copilot Chat (o1) via Edge or M365 Business Standard, you might notice less nuanced responses. To unlock full enterprise value, Copilot for Microsoft 365 (with o4) is the model to aim for â especially when working across Teams, SharePoint, Outlook, and OneDrive with secure, compliant data access. Do you have real-world experiences or feedback with these models? Letâs connect in the comments!Solved367Views4likes10CommentsWhat'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...358Views2likes3CommentsCreate an SOP with screenshots from a meeting recording
MS Copilot can prepare notes from a transcript, but it cannot take relevant screenshots from a meeting's recording (video). It does not accept MP4 files at all. I was expecting this functionality to be available, but it is not. There are some websites and tools available on the Internet that claim to help with this, but I am not comfortable using them as I do not want to compromise my company's data. Is there any other Microsoft tool available that can help with this? Please note that it needs to create a step-by-step SOP from a video recording, providing a description of each step along with respective screenshots. Kindly help!46Views0likes1CommentSupercharging Solution Architecture with GitHub Copilot Prompts Every Architect Should Know
