Copilot Credits are the consumption unit for all Copilot Studio activities, with usage varying based on action complexity. Basic conversations consume fewer credits, while advanced features like computer use automation, code interpreter execution, and multi-agent orchestration consume more credits.
Computer use enables agents to interact with desktop applications and websites through virtual mouse and keyboard controls, visual recognition, and natural language task interpretation. Currently in public preview for US-based environments, this eliminates API dependencies for legacy system automation.
No, Copilot Studio is exclusively limited to Azure OpenAI Service models including GPT-4 and GPT-4o. You cannot integrate direct OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, or open-source LLM providers, creating vendor lock-in to Microsoft's AI ecosystem.
MCP support enables standardized one-click connections to external data sources, APIs, and services through dynamic resource access. Agents can connect to existing MCP servers or custom implementations to access real-time data while maintaining security compliance.
