Reviewer's verdict

A solid 45-minute primer for non-engineers to understand how copilots can do more than just chat. It gives you just enough vocabulary to have a productive conversation with the dev team.

Who it's for

PMs or business analysts needing a quick intro to automating Copilot Studio agents.

Who should skip it

Developers looking for deep code examples or advanced orchestration patterns.

Pros

  • Short, focused, and directly applicable.
  • Good visual walkthrough of using workflows as tools.
  • Explains the 'why' behind connecting agents to structured processes.

Cons

  • Very high-level, almost a product tour.
  • Doesn't cover error handling or complex logic.
  • Assumes you're already bought into the Microsoft ecosystem.

The slide distinguishing between using workflows at the agent level versus the topic level—that finally made it click. Before this, my mental model for our internal chatbot was just a slightly smarter FAQ page. Now I see it as a switchboard that can actually kick off processes, like an approval request or a data lookup.

The examples are all point-and-click inside the Copilot Studio UI, which was perfect for me. No code, just concepts. It's not a deep dive; you won't learn to build a complex, multi-step workflow. But you do get the basic building blocks and learn what to ask your engineering counterparts for. I spent less than an hour and now I have a much clearer picture of what's possible beyond simple Q&A.
