Details
Updated September 10, 2025: We have updated the timeline. Thank you for your patience.
Introduction
We’re introducing a new tenant-level admin control in Microsoft 365 admin center that enables IT admins to manage who can create org-wide sharing links for user-built agents. This feature introduces granular control and governance over who in an organization can create org-wide sharing links for user-built agents in Microsoft Copilot Studio Agent Builder.
This feature is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 500376.
When this will happen
General Availability (Worldwide): We will begin rolling out in early October 2025 (previously mid-September) and expect to complete by late October 2025 (previously late September).
How this affects your organization
By default, existing behavior remains unchanged. Once available, admins will be able to configure whether all users, no users, or only specific users or groups are permitted to create org-wide sharing links for agents built in Copilot Studio Agent Builder. This control helps organizations align agent sharing permissions with internal governance policies and collaboration needs.
What you can do to prepare
Admins can access the new control by navigating to:
Microsoft 365 admin center > Copilot > Settings > Data access > Agents
No action is required unless you want to customize sharing permissions. We recommend reviewing your organization’s sharing policies and updating settings as needed.
