Multi-Day Live Virtual Workshop

Workshop: Build Declarative Agents for Microsoft 365 Copilot

Get the most out of your Microsoft 365 Copilot investment with declarative agents, bringing data from LOB systems, and apply instructions for unique scenarios.

You’ve rolled out Microsoft 365 Copilot and now your organization has entered the AI revolution. Mission accomplished… or is it?

Out-of-the-box, copilot only has knowledge that the underlying model has been trained on, the internet, and your Microsoft 365’s organizational content in Microsoft Graph.

That includes your Teams meetings, transcripts, and chats… content in Outlook/Exchange like email and calendar items… and content in SharePoint as well as OneDrive!

But not all your content… 🤔

Did you know that Microsoft 365 Copilot can only read a portion of large files stored in SharePoint, Microsoft Teams, and OneDrive? 😮

Most organization content and systems don’t live exclusively in Microsoft 365 Many companies have other content stores and line-of-business systems such as CRM, ERP, help desk ticketing systems, sales data, and more.

Copilot can’t see any of your critical organizational data outside of Microsoft 365… well, not without a little work on your part.

That’s what this live workshop by Andrew Connell, Build Declarative Agents for Microsoft 365 Copilot, will teach you how to do!
