Screenshot 1 - I see an error in Copilot Studio for that run. The Flow connects to Salesforce.com and works fine in testing. I deleted all connections and recreated and it made that first error go away. But I see an error in the Activity feed area that additional permissions are needed to run this

Why is the Power Platform so finicky about connections? No matter what I do, I can't get this one to connect. While there are lots of time savings with all of this being low code, it's incredibly frustrating and time-wasting to troubleshoot basic things that should just work.

What a productive Sunday! I got my autonomous agent up and working, unblocking my Chapter 6 efforts. I'm so stoked; this is great and a really cool use case.

Question for my super smart #Azure peeps Is there any real harm in sharing the Application (client ID) and Object ID for a resource that I'll be deleting later? It's just a GUID right? I intend on blurring the Tenant ID, but not sure it's necessary to blur the Application and Object ones.

Oh and forgot to include a picture of my co-author hard at work. 😴

Just crossed the 100-pages mark this morning. I've turned in 3 chapters, working on my fourth. Going to try and turn this one in by Christmas Eve. As someone that used to dev (or at least tinker), I can't believe how easy it is for makers to build such sophisticated solutions with configuration.

Oooh, and here's another fun one. When you download as a .zip file (still from Agent Builder) It doesn't export the color or icon correctly—it looks like these are just the defaults despite the fact that I've customized them.

LOL, thank you it's been wild. I've found this little nugget from a grammar bug. Should probably read as "People in your organization might not have access to some.." (Agent Builder experience)

PC Load Letter? But seriously, has anyone seen this "Review for Responsible AI Issues" error in Agent Builder (Copilot Studio) that provides absolutely no helpful information as to what's triggering it? No obvious way of fixing it. #Copilot #CopilotStudio #Microsoft

Very interesting idea. I've been tinkering a bit with ChatGPT on the backend here to understand more. I pulled together a table and you're definitely right that Kaiser has done a pretty good job of serving its patients (at least from a numbers perspective) It does seem like an interesting option

Chapter 3 has begun. Starting with declarative copilot agents and trying to not confuse the reader a couple of pages in with all this moving terminology. Wish me luck 😅

"Create an agent" functionality in M365 Copilot which invokes Copilot Studio.

So when I click on that list, I only see people's messages (in this case Tim) in that list. So it's really filtering the posts of particular people you follow.

So for instance, I created a list called "Slalom Peeps". This shows up under "Lists" in my app. And I added an old colleague to that list.

I think it kind of works like X where you can organize people you follow and hashtags so you can filter your timeline to those things. On the web app they show up here:

Deactivated. I'd had that account since the early "Fail Whale" days when it got hit with scaling issues.

Feeling like an absolute imposter right now, but two chapters are written. Chapter 1 has made its way through tech review. Working through Chapter 2 feedback today/tomorrow and then I start Chapter 3 over the weekend. So much work to be done, but I'm enjoying the challenge.

If there is one thing I want to bring over from Twitter it’s complaining about poor customer experiences 😂 Example, @mtbank.bsky.social has the least reliable mobile banking app I’ve ever used. And its full web application looks like it’s from 2007. I think I’m changing banks in 2025
