Facilitates the deployment and integration of a Model Context Protocol server with Microsoft Copilot Studio.
This tool provides a practical lab for deploying a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server and integrating it seamlessly with Microsoft Copilot Studio. It explores how MCP, an open protocol defined by Anthropic, standardizes context provision to Large Language Models (LLMs), enabling makers to connect AI models to diverse data sources and tools directly within Copilot Studio. The lab demonstrates both local execution and Azure deployment options, highlighting how MCP leverages existing connector infrastructure to ensure enterprise-grade security and governance controls while supporting real-time data access for AI-powered agents.
