When setting up an agent in the Copilot Studio, one of the things we could and should be doing is providing instructions. Sometimes, we’d be using those instructions to define constraints. Well, at least that’s part of what instructions are supposed to be used for. You can find some example here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-copilot-studio/guidance/generative-mode-guidance And to some… Read More »
To use an MCP server, you don’t necessarily need to ask your agent users to provide their credentials. However, on my first attempt to add my test MCP server as a tool to a Copilot Studio agent I got stuck on the message below: Let’s get you connected first, and then I can find that… Read More »
I constantly feel overwhelmed by everything LinkedIn is throwing at me. It’s something most of us can probably relate to, and it’s been bothering me for a while. In tech, it seems most of us have to be “jacks of all trades” to an extent – I am not sure if anyone has the luxury… Read More »
I mean, with all due respect to the investors and overhyped folks who would be saying AI is a real thing, it seems it would be a way more earnest perspective to admit it is a toy, for now. Because, well, toys tend to break, they are not meant for the “real world”. So there… Read More »
Over a year ago, I blogged about GC Web implementation in Power Pages: Just to re-cap, it’s a completely custom power pages web site that’s not using entity forms or lists, and, instead, that’s relying on the Javascript/Liquid to render the content. Most of the things I blogged about back then have not changed much,… Read More »
I know you won’t like it. I don’t like it myself. And, yet, Power Pages caching has a tendency to be a pain in the neck every now and then. For example, in my case, we store the # of notifications on the contact record (which maps to the “user” object in Liquid). That number… Read More »
Every time we would ask Power Pages to render a non-existing page, we’d receive an error like this: Instead of the one we were actually supposed to see, which would be this: So, ultimately, we ended up opening another support ticket, and, yet again (for the second time in a row with Power Pages cases),… Read More »
If you code component is suddenly not working in Power Pages on an otherwise boring Monday morning, it’s not necessarily because Monday is a bad day, it may be because Microsoft just pushed an updated over the weekend. I mentioned in the earlier post we started to have an issue earlier this week: This liquid… Read More »
Just a heads up (am I late to the party, though?) If you are using “Request” triggers in the Power Automate flows, you may start seeing this kind of emails in your mailbox. In my case it’s not a big deal, since those are my own flows, but, in general, this might be interesting: To… Read More »
I didn’t plan on writing this, but judging by my LinkedIn feed, the tide has turned – and everyone’s kicking AI while it’s down. “AI can’t do math.”“AI fails logical problems.”“AI hallucinates and lies.” Sure, sometimes it does. But here’s the question: why did we expect anything else? What we mostly call “AI” today are… Read More »
