Microsoft has rolled out its April 2025 updates to Copilot Studio, continuing its push to empower businesses with smarter, more intuitive AI-driven tools. The latest release brings expanded capabilities designed to streamline workflows and enhance user experiences across the platform.

Here are the improvements:

Computer Use in Agents: Agents can now interact with websites and desktop applications like a human would—navigating menus, clicking buttons, and entering data—enabling automation across systems with graphical user interfaces.
Advanced Approvals in Agent Flows (Public Preview): Build sophisticated multi-stage approval processes with distinct steps and decision-makers at each stage, improving workflow precision and accountability.
Customer Managed Keys: Admins can now use Microsoft Azure Key Vault to create and manage their own encryption keys, offering enhanced control over data security at rest.
ROI Analysis with Viva Insights: Track how your Copilot Studio agents are being used and assess the business outcomes they deliver, with built-in analytics powered by Viva Insights.
Analytics for Autonomous Agents and Generative Orchestration: Access a comprehensive dashboard that surfaces KPIs like answer rate, action count, usage trends, session duration, and success rates—at both individual agent and aggregate levels.
