Apps in Copilot Studio and Copilot Cowork

Microsoft announce App building in Copilot Studio and Copilot Cowork, alongside the existing options of Agents and Workflows.

With rollout starting in September, users in the early-access Frontier Program can use natural language to create, edit, and publish Apps that optionally use organisational data. It’s all enabled by the GitHub Copilot Harness and that means that both the building of the Apps and running them consumes Copilot Credits. As you’d hope, admins can manage the App policies and stats in the Microsoft 365 Admin Center.

Microsoft Agent 365

Microsoft Agent 365 is a control plane for AI Agents, helping businesses to deploy, organise, and govern AI Agents securely.

It gives each AI Agent its own Microsoft Entra Agent ID for identity, lifecycle, and access management, and allows Agents to be observable and managed in the Microsoft 365 Admin Center. That’s where it’s currently in preview through the early-access Frontier program and, when you go to try it out, 25 Agent 365 licences are provisioned to your tenant for assignment to Agents.
