In the eighth installment of the Microsoft Copilot Studio series, we take the PSC Workshop Assistant further by integrating it with an MCP server.
Last time, we added tools like a workshop recommendation prompt, Outlook email integration, and a custom connector to link external systems. Now, we focus on Model Context Protocol (MCP), a standard that helps AI agents connect with external tools, systems, and knowledge sources.
In this video, we:
- Explain what MCP is and why it's important
- Connect the Microsoft Learn MCP server as a tool
- Explore Work IQ, Microsoft's extension of this pattern for Microsoft 365 work data
Key topics covered:
- What MCP is
- Why MCP matters for AI agents
- Microsoft Learn MCP Server
- Adding MCP as a tool in Copilot Studio
- How MCP fits into the PSC Workshop Assistant
- Introduction to Work IQ
