Integrating Copilot Studio Chatbot with Power BI Semantic Models for Natural Language KPI Queries
I am developing a Copilot Studio chatbot, and my goal is to enable users to ask for metrics or KPI-related information in natural language. The chatbot should then query existing Power BI semantic models (datasets) to retrieve the relevant data and provide answers. I do not want to rely on DAX or SQL queries directly the interaction should be conversational, with the chatbot translating user intent into queries against Power BI datasets. Currently, I am exploring the “Run query against Power BI datasets” capability and available tools, but I am stuck. I’m looking for guidance, best practices, or reference documentation that explains how to connect Copilot Studio with Power BI semantic models for natural language queries.
Copilot, Excel and photos
We have a number of networking devices, all the same type, that we are deploying within an office. To speed up asset management, engineers are putting a label on the back under the MAC and serial numbers then taking a photo so it can be documented later by admin staff. Through Excel I've tried with a single photo and multiple photos to extract the MAC details successfully and put them in to cells at the same time. However, this doesn't tell us which device it is as it doesn't process the photos in any order. Therefore my next step is to be able to capture the label info we have put on and tie this info together with the serial number each time so its all from the same equipment. Is it possible to do this either one photo at a time or across multiple photos? TIAManaging agent inventory and costs

Ever since I've had a cull Copilot licence I've used prompts to summarise emails in my outlook folders. It's always worked well until 1-2 weeks ago when it's returning content outside the selected folder and or only reviewing a few of the emails in the selected folder. I've revised and reverse engineered the prompt but it's still not working and more worryingly it gives a variation every time. Does anyone know why this is happening or the workaround? Ultimately all I want it to do is summarise each email and drop all the emails into a table.
