Diesen Beitrag auf Deutsch lesen
Agent 365 MCP servers connect Copilot Studio agents to Microsoft 365 data and actions through deterministic, auditable tools under existing security and compliance boundaries.
TL;DR
Copilot Studio agents can use Agent 365 MCP servers for user-scoped Microsoft 365 Search, SharePoint, OneDrive, Outlook, Word, Dataverse and other workloads. The capability requires a Frontier-enrolled tenant and a full Microsoft 365 Copilot license, while administrators may need to enable Frontier features in the Microsoft Admin Center.

- Security/Compliance: Treat the servers as user-scoped, deterministic and auditable, while retaining Microsoft 365 security, licensing and compliance boundaries.
