Extend D365 Customer Service Copilot: Ask questions about your data(verse)

Earlier this month I posted an article on how you can extend the Copilot that sits inside of Dynamics 365 Customer Service by using Prompt Plugins. If you haven’t had a chance to read that article yet, then you can do so here. In the article I explained how you can create prompt plugins in Copilot Studio which are then surfaced inside of Dynamics 365 Customer Service as a PluginRead More

Restore deleted Dataverse rows with the Recycle Bin(preview)

Any organization that uses any type of system may at some point in time need to delete records or rows from their database(s). This can be for various reasons, like cleaning up data, correcting errors, or following business rules. Another scenario that is possible is that someone deleted a record that was not supposed to be deleted by accident. This can lead to the fact that sometimes you might needRead More

Extend D365 Customer Service Copilot with Prompt Plugins (preview)

The preview feature that I am writing about today is a feature that a lot of us have been waiting for! I am super excited that it’s finally here, and I think this will be a game changer for service organizations! If you are familiar with Dynamics 365 Customer Service, than you most likely have seen the Copilot for agents (this is what I call it) that lives inside ofRead More

Use Copilot in D365 Customer Service to generate knowledge articles from cases

Microsoft is adding more and more functionality to Copilot and I am loving it! It’s almost like every time I log into one of the Dynamics 365 apps, there are new things that Copilot can do, no matter which app I am in! Today I am going to discuss a feature that you can test right now, because it is currently in public preview. The feature I am talking aboutRead More

Improved email attachment experience in D365 Customer Service

Here is another set of features that kind of snuck into Dynamics 365 Customer Service without anyone noticing! At least I didn’t notice until I opened an email message in Dynamics 365 Customer Service and saw some different options available for me! I (or any other admin) didn’t need to enable anything, these features just showed up out of the blue! It’s hard to pinpoint which release wave these featuresRead More

Copilot assistance for form fill in Model-Driven Apps

Believe it or not, I have actually received requests in the past where prospects wanted the system to automatically create records in Dataverse or Dynamics 365, which of course is kind of crazy! We always need to integrate with another system, or have someone either enter data manually or import the data into Dynamics 365 (or Dataverse) (for example rows like accounts, contacts, opportunities, cases, etc.) after which we canRead More

Associate emails to multiple records (preview)

As you might or might not know, today we only have the ability to relate activities to ONE row (or record) in Dynamics 365 CX by setting the ‘regarding’ field on the activity. This can be problematic, because there might be a need to save a record to multiple rows (or records). A good example of when there would be a need to associate an activity (like an email) toRead More

Find Dynamics 365 Data in Outlook using mentions

Today I stumbled across a feature that is pretty new! This feature was just released on March 6th and I have to say I am loving it! Apparently, it has been in preview, so I am not sure how I missed it, but I guess with so many new features being pushed out on a regular basis, it is to be expected that some features slip through the cracks! First,Read More
