This course teaches the skills required for the Microsoft Applied Skill: Build an agent in Microsoft Copilot Studio
This course uses the classic Microsoft Copilot Studio interface, as the Microsoft Applied Skill required you to create topics, which is not supported in the new Microsoft interface.
Please note: This course is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Microsoft.
In this 2 hour course:
We'll sign into Microsoft Copilot Studio, either with a free trial or using the pay-as-your-go plan, and create our first agent and topic.
We’ll then expand our agent. We’ll add message, question and condition nodes, add a topic management node, configure variables and closed list entities, and ask multiple questions with an Adaptive Card.
Finally, we’ll look at adding knowledge sources, creating a Power Automate flow, and saving and publishing the agent to Teams and a demo website.
There are five Practice Activities throughout the course, so you can be sure that you are learning.
By the end of the course, you will feel confident about being able to create your own agents and configure the topics. You should then be able to implement your newfound knowledge into your own work, and create your own Copilot Studio agents.
