🧠 MCP or not to MCP: that is THE question

Connecting Copilot Studio agents to real systems with the Model Context Protocol.

Abstract

The Model Context Protocol is everywhere these days, and since Copilot Studio joined in March 2025 the obvious question is what the fuss is about, and what happens to all those connectors you have been using. This session answers both. What an MCP server actually is, how to start using one in Copilot Studio, and why you might want them in your other AI tools too. Fair warning: it is demo heavy, across a range of scenarios, with Microsoft's own servers like the Dataverse one and third party servers alongside them.
