What a amazing video on showcasing Plugin actions in action @ScotthDurow . Thanks!

[@johneakinuk]

The features to extend M365 Copilot within Copilot Studio (Conversational plugins) seem a lot more limited, Can you show a demo of how to use those to call an external API. And also include how to invoke that plugin via Teams 'M365 Chat'

[@UmaiRIshaq93]

very impressive Scott, Thanks of sharing :)

[@Mauro.Coelho]

Lunch Break and new Scott content? awesome. Hope to see you in Hamburg in April 💪

[@ScottDurow]

Thank you for supporting my channel 😊 I really hope to be in Hamburg too! 🌈☁️

[@rodcris304]

Great video, thanks for creating such masterpiece.

[@JCSent22]

Wow very helpful!

It's really pretty cool feature. I am looking forward the time that to apply it to my projects. Thanks Scott!

[@ScottDurow]

You are welcome - thanks for watching 🤩 Do you have any scenarios in mind?

[@Kjetilmann]

I am testing copilot as we speak. Nothing seems to work. Yesterday it answered a few of my prompts. But now it is back to either not answering at all. Or just using the default topics, even though I never wrote stuff that should kick those off. Anyone else experiencing the same kind of issues? I have recreated my copilot with an environment in the USA and yesterday it kinda worked with some prompts. Today its back delivering nothing at all.

[@Usernamesareoutdated]

Yes, very surprising how it simply doesn't work. What I see on my desktop, vs what I see on youtube, are not the same.

[@DaveSHarris]

Brilliant! Thank you

[@ScottDurow]

Thank you Dave for watching and for your support of my channel🤩

[@DaveSHarris]

@@ScottDurowmy pleasure! What licensing do we need for what you demonstrated in this video?

[@ewolthaus]

@@DaveSHarris @scottdurow I was wondering that as well

[@ashishshinde8276]

Your video is very helpful. Can you please help to understand, how the multilingual power virtual agent- can be created.

[@absyoutube1792]

Super explanation.How we can show custom copilot in Modal driven apps entity?

[@ScottDurow]

Thank you for watching and supporting me! Custom copilot in a MDA - sounds like a great idea - I'll give it a go! ⭐🌟✨

[@kannank7313]

Hi Scott, Do you use clipchamp software to screen record / edit videos? It's pretty cool the way you presented.

[@dea398]

First of all. Thanks for the video. One thing I did not understand is why the context worked once (the order id) and then it did not worked and you have to set the order once again. My question is ... Copilot Studio is managing the conversation history or not?

[@sevarakenjaeva7138]

Hello Any chance of you doing a detailed video for the seven types please?

[@dineshb]

Great Video!! With the explosion of copilots, how do you see the future of copilot studio and power platform?

[@jjpk80]

this is impressive.....

[@ScottDurow]

Thank you for watching 😊 I just love it too - exciting times!

[@shomari169]

Nice video but when’s PCF control course being released, I have been waiting for almost two years now 😅😅

[@ScottDurow]

hehe - I was talking about this to someone only the other day! Thanks for the nudge! 🤩

[@shomari169]

I am really hoping its very very soon!!!@@ScottDurow 😁😁😁😁

[@alvarezskinner]

Brilliant video Scott, thank you so much! QQ Plugin Actions with Sharepoint and Dataverse for some reason throw constant System Errors, is there any way to know if its expected or just debug it with the conversation id we are passed?

[@_PowerThomas]

Same here...

[@alvarezskinner]

Have actually tried creating a custom connector to dataverse and it works fine. It’s connectors with built in azure entra auth don’t seem to work not even using SPNs

[@ramasamynagappan7586]

Hi, I created a plugin using Node.js. I am able to receive messages from Microsoft Copilot through a Node.js API, but Copilot is unable to render messages received from my plugin. I am unsure why this is happening. I am using an Adaptive Card to render the plugin's messages in the Copilot chat window. Can you please help me?.

[@sahithisunkara6506]

How do we pass json as a variable as it is as a parameter in custom connector in Topics

[@hollybollywoodpoint4548]

is it possible to add voice into it?

[@petersam2995]

I 'm unable to see conversational plugin can you please tell me how to enable it

[@sreeniv09]

there is an toggle option in home page it says build conversaional ... turn it on
