Microsoft Copilot: Core — Copilot Studio

This advanced course covers sophisticated Copilot workflows and building custom agents in Copilot Studio. Learners design cross-app M365 workflows, build agents, connect data sources and actions, and address governance and rollout. The outcome is the ability to extend Copilot for a team or organization.

What this course covers

The course runs across 9 topics, each one a short adaptive session rather than a recorded lecture. The tutor explains the idea, works an example, checks understanding, and adjusts the next step to the answer given.

  • Advanced Cross-App M365 Workflows — Design and execute complex, multi-application workflows utilizing Microsoft 365 Copilot. Learn to orchestrate data across Teams, Outlook, Word, and Excel seamlessly.
  • Introduction to Copilot Studio & Agent Architecture — Understand the architecture of custom agents in Copilot Studio. Explore the development environment, trigger phrases, and the conversational lifecycle.
  • Building Your First Custom Agent — Step-by-step creation of a custom agent. Define user intents, configure conversational paths, and publish the agent to internal channels.
  • Connecting Data Sources & Knowledge Bases — Integrate external and internal data repositories. Connect SharePoint sites, files, and enterprise databases to ground your agent's responses in real-time data.
  • Configuring Actions, Power Automate Flows, and APIs — Enable your agent to take action. Author Power Automate flows and configure API connectors to retrieve live system data and perform transactional tasks.
  • Advanced Conversational Design & Entity Extraction — Implement advanced dialogue management using variables, conditions, and entity extraction to handle complex, non-linear user prompts.
  • Agent Testing, Debugging, and Analytics — Use the built-in test canvas to debug conversations, trace variables, analyze routing errors, and interpret performance analytics to optimize agent behavior.
  • Enterprise Governance, Security, and Compliance — Navigate tenant-level administration, Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policies, authentication configurations, and access controls for custom agents.
  • Publishing, Application Lifecycle Management (ALM), and Rollout — Deploy agents to Microsoft Teams and web channels. Manage the lifecycle transition from development to production environments, and execute an organizational rollout strategy.
