Applies to Product - Microsoft Copilot Studio
What’s happening?
Customers are unable to add co-editors to a created Copilot in Microsoft Teams, despite having the necessary permissions.
Reason:
Follow public documentation: Control how agents are shared - Microsoft Copilot Studio | Microsoft Learn. The issue arises when users who are members of a Team Group attempt to share a Copilot. If the user is a member, they may not have the required permissions to edit or share the Copilot unless they are designated as an owner.
Resolution:
- Follow public documentation: Control how agents are shared - Microsoft Copilot Studio | Microsoft Learn.
- Verify the role of the user in the Team Group: Ensure that the user is assigned the Owner role, as only Owners have full control over all agents in the Team Group.
- If the user is currently a Member, consider changing their role to Owner to enable editing capabilities.
- If the user is unable to see the Copilot in the "Customize the System" section:
- Check if the user has the necessary permissions to view Chatbots or Copilots.
- Confirm that the user has the appropriate license for Copilot Studio.
- For exporting and importing Copilot data: Use the solution feature to export and import the Copilot. Ensure that the Copilot is added to a solution before performing the export or import.
- Note that System Customizer permissions are required, and the solution should be exported as unmanaged.
- If issues persist, consider creating a new Team Group for collaborative editing, where only the desired users are added as members.
