In this edition of our monthly roundup, we’re recapping the most exciting new features Microsoft Copilot Studio released in October 2025.

Control org-wide sharing of agents in Copilot Studio lite

A new admin control in the Microsoft 365 Admin Center, now generally available, gives organizations stronger governance over how agents created in Microsoft 365 Copilot are shared across the tenant. Admins can now restrict or disable organization-wide sharing of agents built in Copilot Studio lite (formerly known as the agent builder.) This ability helps prevent oversharing while supporting safe adoption at scale.

From within the Microsoft 365 Admin Center go to Copilot > Settings > Data Access > Agents page, admins can choose who is allowed to share agents with the entire organization: all users (default), no users, or specific users and groups. When you place restrictions on sharing, the “Anyone in your organization” option in the agent-sharing dialog is disabled. Makers can see a tooltip explaining the policy. Existing access remains unchanged, but makers must comply with the defined settings before updating or broadening sharing.

This control helps ensure that agent collaboration aligns with organizational policies and regulatory requirements. This is particularly important for organizations in spaces like finance, healthcare, and government. By bringing this configuration directly into the Microsoft 365 Admin Center, admins can manage agent governance alongside other Microsoft Copilot and AI settings, simplifying oversight and reducing risk.
