About
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that dictates how applications supply context to Large Language Models (LLMs). This tool provides a hands-on lab environment to learn how to deploy an MCP server, either locally or to Azure, and seamlessly integrate it into Microsoft Copilot Studio. By leveraging existing connector infrastructure, MCP servers benefit from enterprise-grade security, governance, and real-time data access, enhancing the capabilities of AI-powered agents within Copilot Studio. It demonstrates a 'better together' approach where MCP and connectors collaborate to extend AI model functionality.
