Microsoft Agent 365 lets you onboard agents, assign policies, and let them work in parallel with you to handle tasks like procurement, approvals, research, and updates.

How Microsoft Agent 365 works
Bring AI agents directly into your daily workflows with Microsoft Agent 365. Agents have their own identity, email, OneDrive and Teams presence, and collaborate just like coworkers. Onboard agents, give them the policies and knowledge they need, and let them work in parallel with you to handle procurement, approvals, research, and updates using the same Microsoft 365 tools you already rely on. As your use of agents grows, keep full visibility and control. Track every action, understand their impact across your organization, govern permissions with least-privilege access, and manage all agents from a single unified control plane. Jeremy Chapman, Microsoft 365 Director, shares how you can adopt autonomous agents at scale with confidence, security, and clarity across your business. ► QUICK LINKS: 00:00 - Microsoft Agent 365 01:04 - Agent capabilities 02:48 - Visualize the agent's impact 03:23 - How it works 04:48 - Agent 365 control plane 07:31 -...
