[@davidcohen1018]

This was, SIMPLY PUT, AWESOME demo. Thank you! copy this man word for word if you are an Admin and you will get Sharepoint for Co pilot going.

[@DeepakShrivastava]

Thank you !

[@dougydoe]

Hey Deepak, this was really good. I managed to replicate this in my environment and got it working in both SharePoint and Teams. Great Stuff and Thanks for sharing.

[@DeepakShrivastava]

Thanks for watching!

[@andalamalasarathbabu2184]

Excellent videos sir thank you

I still don't understand why you don't have more subscribers, this channel and videos are pure gold.

Hi Deepak, it's amazing and fantastic , it's very very helpful for me as expected my use case, thank you so much

Most welcome 😊

[@akifpatel5756]

This is what I have been looking for! Just a Q, can we restrict the Copilot engine to make Hybrid Search extended to multiple selected Sharepoint sites and all the files within?

[@victoroliveira6026]

Could you do a video about how to create a copilot for searching specific items in sharepoint lists?

[@cydmansg1979]

almost the same solution I am looking for

[@DeekshithS-cl9zd]

@Deepak please demonstrate copilot for M365 for PowerBI, so we can search report and click report or query KPIs

[@AlexandreWarners]

I was able to follow all of the steps provided, but for some reason, regardless of what I type into the chat window, it responds with: "I’m sorry, I’m not sure how to help with that. Can you try rephrasing?"

[@DeepakShrivastava]

Make sure you enable Generative Answers toggle. check video at 3:31

[@AlexandreWarners]

@@DeepakShrivastavaThank you Deepak, I will check that out

[@factormovil]

Hi Deepak. Terrific video, thank you. Would it be possible to do a video with the newest UI? There have been multiple changes since you made this video.

[@RS-hd5tc]

Fantastic video! Could you please also share how to customize the design of this ChatBot in SharePoint? Thank you so much in advance

[@AlexandreWarners]

Hi Deepak, when trying to fix the “authentication not enabled” error, I cannot access the security option, it is greyed out, do you know how to fix this?

[@flowaltdelete]

I’m pretty sure this happens if you don’t have Dataverse in that environment.

[@mikecatherine3224]

Great tutorial video, however the interface has been upgraded and changed significantly from your video. Do I now need to add the SharePoint site under the Knowledge tab? It doesnt seem to automatically populate the 'Data sources' under the Conversational boosting anymore

[@bricolagezero]

I was recommended to use Blob Storage in order to Vectorize the data, but this seems a lot simpler. I have seen other videos simply pasting the link of the Sharepoint library too, but if I have a fairly large library (2GB worth of files), is this method which I guess is using Graph/Keyword search still okay?

[@premnathsubramani6886]

This is an amazing video, I have a question, I am looking to implement deduplication of files within SharePoint 365 DMS, is there a way to do this using CoPilot or PowerAutomate?

[@whdea3426]

Awesome , Thanks . Can I always select from the latest document rather than searching through all documents within a folder

[@ranjanroy1623]

Great Video Deepak , I am blown away ! I've 1 question can I use the copilot to point to a Excel dataset as well ?

[@DeepakShrivastava]

Yes you can but one excel at a time.

[@ranjanroy1623]

@@DeepakShrivastava one more Q please . what price do I need to pay for this sharepoint use case ? Is sharepoint or MS teams are free as per office 365 E3 or a E5 license plan ?

[@DeepakShrivastava]

check MSFT site for pricing www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-copilot/microsoft-copilot-studio#Pricing

[@ChanDivya]

Hi - Thanks for the clear steps. I could add the Copliot and it was working fine, but for others its giving an error -Sorry, something unexpected happened. We’re looking into it. Error code: AccessToBotDenied. Can you please advise?

[@andresgoossen1940]

Where you able to find the answer?

[@aysanhaghani5271]

Great video. Can we limit the bot access to that specific SharePoint site or allow read-all so the bot can read all files?

[@warrenp76]

Hey Deepak, do you have an issue with the generative answers getting the correct answers, but citing the incorrect document?

[@DeepakShrivastava]

I did not but will check. Thank You!

[@helloranjan89]

You got a subscriber

[@Learnpowerplatform]

Hey Deepak, this is great video. I just read that generative responses will not be supported for the document more than 3 mb. So if we search any specific keywords from these documents then copilot will return the document link or not?

[@agustinrodasnavarro8904]

I'm trying to reproduce this example but I can not see the option "boost conversational coverage with generative answers". Could be related with I have Coty for Micorosft 365 license? Thnks

[@srilarki1]

Hi, Where is this Answer variable created? And how is it used.

[@DeepakShrivastava]

You don’t need to create if you are use default topic.

[@vitorcardoso4776]

hello! the flow is working but a person has to write exactly what is on the sharepoint list for a response to come. Isn't there a way to establish a "like" to search for items in the list without the requester having to write exactly the same?

[@DeepakShrivastava]

To make perfect generative answers capabilities you may need to use azure Open AI studio.

[@twangt]

Hi Deepak, Great content! Just a question: I also get the respone: I’m sorry, I’m not sure how to help with that. Can you try rephrasing? Even tough I have the "Boost conversational coverage with generative answers" checked. What could be wrong? Regards Alexander

[@DeepakShrivastava]

Thank you for watching. Are you trying to get responses from documents or list items?

[@twangt]

@@DeepakShrivastava Thanks for reply. Im trying to get responses from documents.

[@DeepakShrivastava]

@twangt it should work. Try with other documents to see if that works?

[@philipfriis]

Is it enough to have one Copilot license for the admin that sets up the Copilot-bot, or do I need to have a license for all users?

[@Kjetilmann]

Nice demo. Now if copilot just would find anything on my SharePoint site I would be happy. Im having trouble with copilot not generating any answers based on SharePoint/website or uploaded content. It did a couple of days ago, but with no configuration changes it stopped working yesterday. It just doesnt answer when I put in a question that makes the bot fo down the "On Unknown Intent trigger"

[@Kjetilmann]

It does go down the tree and touches the "Create generative answers", but does not produce text. If I ad text to the "All other conditions" It will spit out that text.

[@MSTechInsights]

Hello @Deepak, Thanks for the detailed video. I am able to work with the copilot and it also fetching the result as expected. BUT WHen I am trying to interact with the copilot using a normal user (not admin), it is not working and giving me an error: "Sorry, something unexpected happened. We’re looking into it. Error code: AccessToBotDenied " Can you please help me in this?

[@andresgoossen1940]

Where you able to find the answer?

[@cydmansg1979]

Hi Deepak, thanks for the tutorial, really appreciate it! Is it possible to get an answer from SP list? like if I build a knowledge base for frequently asked questions and it will pull out the answers from SP list? +1 subscriber here

[@jepherdselloria7379]

I am planning to create one for my team. I just want to ask if this needs IT permission? thanks.

[@robertoel-hajjboutros]

Amazing video, thanks Deepak. Can you please create a complex copilot plugin video and integrate with copilot itself & sharepoint? We would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance

[@DeepakShrivastava]

Thank You. I will in future.

[@robertoel-hajjboutros]

@@DeepakShrivastava Thanks a lot man, keep it up 🫶

[@pelekengaih530]

Is security and data source updates automatically managed. For example, say the library has different folders for different departments and a sharepoint user is only suppose to have access to documents in his/department. Does copilot automatically handle this? Or by using the library every sharepoint user will have access to those files. Secondly, does the copilot crawl the data source automatically, when files are created, modified or deleted from the library is this auto updated? Thanks

[@DeepakShrivastava]

Good question, basically behind the scene copilot usage MS graph so whatever security permissions you will have your data will be applicable. Yes crawl happens automatically

[@amyholmes8967]

How long does it take for a site to index? I am getting nothing back from our Sharepoint Intranet copilot. We have pages that contain document libraries. . .can it not source this way or does it just take time?

[@biljanastefanovic2386]

Thank you so much this is very helpful! How do we limit user access to files? Example: I want to create copilot that has access to all company files but different people will be able to access different documents.

[@gayathrieshwar7124]

@Deepak, thanks for the video. I'm attempting to replicate it from India, but I can't locate the Generative AI section. Could you please advise on what might be causing this issue? Appreciate your reply

[@morgantobias5175]

Hello @Deepak, I am trying to create a Copilot for my group's sharepoint. I followed your steps word for word and for some reason Copilot still will not pull the information from my sharepoint. I set up all of the authentications and add the sharepoint in the conversational boosting topic. Would you be able to help me trouble shoot?

[@nehalbshah2010]

I have a copilot license and it is still asking me for 60 days free trial for publishing it in website ( sharepoint ) ??

How to get sharepoint access to read files, even after manual authentication is successful

[@DeepakShrivastava]

You need to give Graph API access in azure as I shown in video.

[@Tarak_Tech]

Hi sir What if my account does not have access to app registration and only admin has and he creates and shares the client app id and secret Will I be able to get the answers ?

[@darapuabhishek2952]

i have configured copilot in the same way, in the topic checker i am not seeing any error, but its not generating the answers as well, can you please suggest what could be the issue?

[@darapuabhishek2952]

i am getting this error in the topic checker :"Cannot reference variable from component 'crb0b_sPcopilot.knowledge.automation_test_DEE05fhr6uuWPJxmNyAHv' ", can i know what is this error, and how can we solve it?

[@eladic09]

Nice video. I was able to follow from scratch and was able to set it up. My only issue now is that whenever the system generates a six digit code during login, the chat box does not recognize them as code. Instead, it processes it as instructions Would anyone know why this is happening? I could not complete the authentication process thus far.

[@kanikaminocha9611]

I tried to follow all the steps but when I post a question I get this reply "Escalating to a live agent is not currently configured for this bot, however this is where the bot could provide information about how to get in touch with someone another way". Can you advise if I am missing something?

[@denji3397]

Its a different topic. That means your share point is not properly authenticated i think. Conversational boosting is the topic you should look for. Make sure it doesn't have any errors since its prompt is "unknown intent"

[@raslaankhan5146]

Can it read through pdf files??

[@DeepakShrivastava]

Yes it can.
