Summary

A new preview usage report for Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat agents is available in the Microsoft 365 admin center, showing active users, agents, usage details, and segmentation by license and creator type.

Details

Updated December 12, 2025: We have updated the timeline. Thank you for your patience. 

To help you manage agent adoption for Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat, we are introducing a new usage report in the Microsoft 365 admin center. The report provides visibility into how users in your organization are actively using agents in Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat and includes metrics such as: 

  • Total number of active agent users and active agents 
  • Usage breakdown per user, per agent, and per user-agent pair 
  • Segmentation by license state (licensed vs. unlicensed Microsoft 365 Copilot users) 
  • Segmentation by agent creator type (i.e. agents built by your organization, Microsoft, or Microsoft partners) 

The new report is rolling out in preview and will be available under Reporting > Usage > Microsoft 365 Copilot > Agent. During the preview stage, the report will display a maximum of 30 days of history. In addition, usage information from prior to August 19 2025 will not be available in the report. This report only includes declarative agents. Usage data for SharePoint agents and Custom engine agents will be available in a future update.
