M365 Changelog: Power Platform – Copilot Studio Sharing Limits and Solution-aware cloud flow sharing limits – Dec 12, 2024

MC955566 – Sharing limits are a Managed Environment feature that allow administrators to limit how broadly resources in their tenant are shared. This enables administrators to control with whom or what their makers are allowed to share their resources with. Originally, sharing limits were only available for canvas apps, but we are now extending the platform’s capabilities to include agents created in Copilot Studio and solution-aware cloud flows in Power Automate.

How does this affect me?

Copilot Studio:
Starting on December 17th, 2024, sharing limits for agents created in Copilot Studio will be in Public Preview. These settings will be available to configure for an individual managed environment and as a rule that can be applied to environment groups. The specific settings are:

1. Allow or block makers from sharing their agents with individuals as Editors, who can edit, chat, share and publish the bot
2. Allow or block makers from sharing their agents with individuals or security groups as Viewers, who can only chat with the bot
3. Block makers from sharing their agents with security groups
4. Limit the number of individuals that makers can share their agents with as Viewers

Power Automate
Starting on December 13th, 2024, sharing limits for solution-aware cloud flows will be Generally Available. Like copilot studio sharing limits, these sharing limits will be configurable for an individual managed environment and for environment groups through a rule. The specific setting is:

• Allow or block makers from sharing their solution-aware cloud flows with individuals and security groups.

What do I need to do to prepare?
This message is for awareness and no action is required.
