Intelligent Apps & Agents Workshop

Repo: microsoft/apps-agents-workshop
Status: Actively maintained and evolving. Contributions welcome.

TL;DR

This repository hosts a hands-on workshop for building Intelligent Apps and Agents using Microsoft Power Platform. It includes labs, facilitator guidance, and supporting assets that cover: Plan Designer, In-App Agents, Agent Flows, Advanced Approvals, and early content for Autonomous Agents.

Why this workshop

Modern business apps benefit from:

• Agents embedded in the app experience (e.g., data exploration, visualization, data entry, summarization).
• Agents that orchestrate multi-step work (e.g., flows and approvals).

This workshop reflects our “apps need agents and agents need apps” approach and prepares makers to deliver end-to-end scenarios with responsible, governed AI.

Who this is for

• Power Platform makers (citizen & pro devs)
• Solution architects, PMs, and workshop facilitators
• Customer-facing roles delivering intelligent app solutions

What’s included (modules & assets)

• Create & Work with Agents
  Build agents using Copilot Studio and wire up Agent Flows to take safe, governed actions.

• Intelligent Apps with In-App Agents
  Add agents for Data Exploration, Visualization, Smart Paste/Teaching Mode, and Summarization to model-driven apps.
