It supports productivity data from Office applications, line-of-business data from sources such as Dataverse (Microsoft 365 Dynamics), Salesforce, ServiceNow, and local files. For a more detailed overview of supported knowledge sources and configuration, read the <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-copilot-studio\/knowledge-copilot-studio\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">overview of different knowledge sources supported by Copilot Studio<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/power-platform\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/knowledge-in-MCS-latest-1.webp\" alt=\"Knowledge in Copilot Studio\" class=\"wp-image-127965 webp-format\" srcset=\"\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/power-platform\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/knowledge-in-MCS-latest-1.webp\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enterprise data is used to ground your agents in your organization&#8217;s knowledge, ensuring accurate and relevant information. This process is known as Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG). This document provides an in-depth look at how your data from enterprise systems is&nbsp;transformed into knowledge through RAG on the data sources mentioned below:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\"><strong>Files<\/strong> &#8211; Using built-in semantic index of Copilot Studio&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-list-item\"><strong>Enterprise Systems<\/strong> &#8211; Dataverse Tables and Azure SQL, Azure AI Search index, Salesforce, ServiceNow, and more) through 1,400+ Power Platform connectors or leveraging <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoftsearch\/semantic-index-for-copilot\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Microsoft 365 semantic index<\/a> created by <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoftsearch\/connectors-gallery\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Microsoft Graph connections<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"files\">Files<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Uploading files as knowledge helps makers enrich their agents with additional data, augmenting the LLM\u2019s knowledge and grounding the agent in specific information provided by the maker. Makers can upload a variety of files (see types and limits in the <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/microsoft-copilot-studio\/knowledge-copilot-studio\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">knowledge sources summary<\/a>) which are semantically indexed as vector embeddings and then used as knowledge for agents. This knowledge used in agents can then be shared with authenticated and unauthenticated users of the agent. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/power-platform\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Slide1-2.webp\" alt=\"Unstructured Knowledge Sources\" class=\"wp-image-127968 webp-format\" srcset=\"\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/power-platform\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Slide1-2.webp\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To improve agent\u2019s responses, uploaded files are chunked into smaller pieces for faster processing and vector-indexed to provide semantic match with the user query. They are stored automatically in a built-in store for the agent. Indexing time depends on the file size. When a user queries through an agent, the Copilot Studio orchestrator uses the relevant chunks that match the query, and then the LLM summarizes the top chunks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"enterprise-systems\">Enterprise Systems<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ensuring secure access to knowledge sources is critical for managing and harnessing enterprise data effectively. The data in the enterprise systems are accessed in the context of the end user and the end user always get to view the current data in the tables, based on the security roles assigned to them. Also, when a modification is made to the underlying data in these tables, by any application, user or the agent, these changes are reflected in real time to the next query from the agent!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enterprise sources such as <strong>Dataverse tables<\/strong> contain data from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/dynamics-365?msockid=3535fcba82d669720766ed1c8358686d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dynamics 365<\/a> business applications (i.e. Sales, Marketing, Finance) and custom business data useful for LOB agents. Makers can use existing Dataverse tables or create new tables via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/power-platform\/blog\/it-pro\/data-workspace-is-now-generally-available\/?msockid=3535fcba82d669720766ed1c8358686d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Data Workspace<\/a> to provide knowledge for agents. Such new tables can be populated from <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/power-apps\/maker\/data-platform\/data-platform-import-export\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Excel files<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/power-apps\/maker\/common\/faqs-sharepoint-list-to-table-app#what-is-sharepoint-list-to-table-and-app\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SharePoint lists<\/a> and external systems using <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/power-query\/dataflows\/overview-dataflows-across-power-platform-dynamics-365\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dataflows<\/a> built on <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/power-query\/power-query-what-is-power-query#how-power-query-helps-with-data-acquisition\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Power Query<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When Dataverse is used as Knowledge, the user\u2019s query is translated into runtime query against Dataverse. The data and metadata in these tables are semantically indexed and vector embeddings help with linking the objects in the user query to schema elements and annotation of values. These annotations, along with synonyms and glossaries provided by the maker, determine the relevant columns to be used while generating a PowerFX query from the natural language. Synonyms and Glossaries are provided by the maker, inside Microsoft Copilot Studio while adding Dataverse tables to provide more business and organizational context to the models being used to fetch relevant knowledge. Thus, you can see why synonyms and glossaries play a big role in getting quality responses for queries from agent. At runtime, the rich Dataverse security model is enforced including table, row and column security. This means that the end-user will only be seeing the records which they have access to. The entire end to end process is illustrated below.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/power-platform\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/CS-DV.webp\" alt=\"Copilot Studio to Dataverse \n\" class=\"wp-image-127947 webp-format\" srcset=\"\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/power-platform\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/CS-DV.webp\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"other-enterprise-sources\">Other Enterprise sources<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For other enterprise systems such as Salesforce, ServiceNow,&nbsp;Zendesk, and Azure SQL Server, the real-time RAG approach is implemented. In this approach, data from these enterprise sources are never ingested or indexed, but instead we leverage the metadata to generate a real-time query&nbsp;based on table and column names. Also in this model,&nbsp;customers do not have to worry about adding any additional layer of security within Copilot Studio. Copilot Studio uses only metadata, such as table and column names, when sources are selected, to create an index. The connectivity is established using the low code <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/connectors\/connector-reference\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Power Platform connectors<\/a>. When end-users use the agent, they are prompted to sign-in to establish a connection to the external system ensuring that they have the appropriate permissions to access the data, thereby establishing a secure link to access the knowledge needed, in real-time, for providing answers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"security\">Security<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When developing agents that are grounded on diverse knowledge sources, data security becomes a shared responsibility among the makers and administrators alike.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When utilizing Copilot Studio to build agents, makers have the tooling available to implement robust security measures and adhere to best practices, creating intelligent solutions that are both powerful and secure while meeting the highest compliance standards. Adopting secure-by-default practices is essential; makers should ensure that agents are authenticated to restrict access exclusively to authorized users. Additionally, minimizing data exposure by connecting agents only to the necessary knowledge sources helps reduce risks and limits the overall attack surface. Implementing <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/power-platform\/admin\/database-security\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">role-based access controls<\/a> ensures that users receive only the permissions they require, preventing inadvertent overprivileged access to sensitive data. Continuous monitoring of access and usage aids in the prompt detection of any unusual or unauthorized activities, and regular security audits are vital to gain insight into discrepancies and anomalies that could indicate business concerns or suspected security violations. Before deploying&nbsp;to production environment, makers must conduct comprehensive compliance checks to ensure alignment with organizational policies and regulatory standards.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/power-platform\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/managed-security.webp\" alt=\"Managed Security\n\" class=\"wp-image-127948 webp-format\" srcset=\"\" data-orig-src=\"https:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/en-us\/power-platform\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/managed-security.webp\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Administrators play an equally crucial role in governing knowledge sources by leveraging managed security capabilities. These controls help protect data from threats, regulate access, prevent data exfiltration, and support custom encryption policies that reflect the organization\u2019s requirements. By applying tailored data policies to systems such as SharePoint, public websites, or document repositories, administrators can ensure that connectors and API endpoints are used securely by developers building agents. <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/power-platform\/admin\/monitoring\/monitoring-overview\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Monitoring<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/power-platform\/admin\/analytics-common-data-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">analytics<\/a> in the Power Platform admin center provide detailed insights into how resources\u2014such as Dataverse\u2014are accessed and utilized.
