Build the Workplace Lookup assistant

Staff at Contoso keep asking Workplace Services the same questions: parking, visitors, and meeting rooms. Answers should come from the published FAQ, not a guess.

You'll build a Workplace Lookup topic whose description covers all three areas, and give the agent two files to answer from: the FAQ, and a spreadsheet listing each meeting room's seats and equipment. As in Chapter 1, Copilot drafts the description from one sentence. It doesn't always cover every area you name, so you'll check that the three areas staff actually ask about are all there.

Find out what Copilot Studio is and which everyday questions are worth handing to an agent. You'll build an HR help agent the credit-free way, write instructions that keep it in its lane, and test it. Then add expense claim and bank details topics, and use the activity map to prove each question lands in the right place.

Move your agent from answering to acting. You'll build a flow that turns an IT service desk ticket into a drafted reply, store an employee's name in a variable, and branch on urgent tickets. Then watch the Microsoft 365 blog's feed with an RSS trigger and add a human review step before anything reaches staff.

Give your agent answers it can back up. You'll read details from the company directory with a connector, attach Contoso's workplace FAQ with Web Search off, and check which answers it can cite. Then build a Workplace Lookup assistant that draws on the FAQ and a meeting rooms spreadsheet, and one that collects equipment loan requests.

Your HR agent is ready for a pilot. Publish it, find its channels, and check who can use it in the Share dialog. Learn where the Monitor dashboard reports usage, let the Flow checker pinpoint a broken step so you can fix and republish, and plan a handover that keeps the agent running without you.
