TL;DR

Custom agents show a Conversation ID after users type /debug conversationid in Microsoft 365 Copilot, Teams, or another chat experience. Declarative agents use /debug in Microsoft 365 Copilot and return a debugging card containing the identifier. Users should share the ID, usage location and time, and expected versus actual behaviour.

Governance takeaway

  • Makers: Use the Conversation ID to locate the exact agent session connected to a reported problem, especially when investigating user interactions.
  • Admins/CoE: Ask for the identifier, chat surface, timing, and expected versus actual result so support can locate and investigate the relevant conversation.
  • Security/Compliance: Treat full conversation access as permission controlled. Makers can view conversations for agents they own, while administrators and support staff need appropriate assigned roles or data access.
