Coming soon: Copilot Studio Agent Report Template

on
Copilot Studio Agent Report Template Microsoft is rolling out a new feature in Viva Insights: the Copilot Studio agent report template. This Microsoft Power BI template will be available in public preview starting mid-April 2025, and provides an aggregated view of Microsoft Copilot Studio agent adoption and impact across the organization over time, with the flexibility to explore details for specific agents. This feature will bring valuable insights into the usage of agents, making it easier for organizations to make informed adjustments and optimize their performance. The Copilot Studio agent report covers usage and impact metrics for agents built using Copilot Studio that are published outside of Microsoft 365 Copilot or Microsoft 365 Copilot Chat, and excludes agents that enhance Microsoft 365 Copilot and autonomous agents.

Back from Brussels, and not at all happy.

You might even say I'm "pi$$ed". Not by any means on any one related to the ccie lab, but at myself. Why? because I've tricked myself into believing I knew what I was doing.

I've simply been blinded by believing I knew how to configure a million different features and settings in CUCM and CUCME. And for what? Only to fail because of some "stupid" error.

The first time I sat the lab, I realized I didn't have enough configuration skills. And I was really pressed for time when I ran into a few bugs. Instead of waiting 30 days, i spent 2 months trying to prepare for the second attempt.

This time I thought I had it all covered. Only to sit down at a desk where there was a lot pre-configured (and wrongfully so, to test me, the candidate) for me to troubleshoot. This came as a surprise to me. Here I am, having prepared so well for configuring the systems, I really did not know where to look for answers on some of the tasks. I could argue the lab is somewhat artificial, and in a real life scenario I would either call a colleague of mine or simply just "Google" it. But such is the nature of the ccie lab. It's not like the real world.....

I am obviously not really ready for the ccie lab just yet, but close. And on a lucky day, I might even have passed it. So where does this leave me? I've spent most of my spare time on reading and testing for the past 6 months. It was truly disappointing when I realized how I had failed. I am really tired and fed up with it all. but at the same time, I can't just give it up, can I?

I will take a break over the summer and, as I tweeted some time ago, "..rethink my life". Then I'll try to negotiate a deal with the family (and work) to really go in deep for a few intense week before I'll resit the lab. I know I have the skills, I know I have the knowledge, I just lack the practice and speed. (I'll obviously have to do some troubleshooting labs ;)
