Lesson 00.4: How to Check Which Copilot Features You Have

Beginner Last verified: 2026-06-02
Availability and governance note: Course examples may differ from your visible Copilot experience because features vary by account, license, tenant settings, admin controls, app version, language, region, and rollout.

Lesson Promise

Create a feature inventory so you know what you can practice and publish.

Real-World Scenario

A course creator wants to record a lesson but must first confirm which buttons, agents, and file features appear in their tenant.

Core Concept

Feature inventory is a publishing discipline. It protects you from recording a workflow that your account cannot reproduce or your audience may not have.

A strong inventory records where the feature appears, what account was used, what data was tested, and what source was checked.

Step-By-Step Workflow

  1. Open the Microsoft 365 Copilot app and record available chat features.
  2. Check Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Outlook, Teams, OneNote, and Loop where available.
  3. Record agents and Agent Builder availability.
  4. Test file references with safe files only.
  5. Note missing features and possible causes.
  6. Recheck before filming, publishing, or selling the workflow.

Course Setup Checklist

Common Mistakes

  • Starting with private work data before learning the safety routine.
  • Assuming every learner sees the same Copilot buttons, agents, or app features.
  • Treating missing features as user error instead of checking account, license, tenant, and rollout.
  • Skipping source and human review because the first answer sounds confident.
  • Trying every module at once instead of building a steady weekly learning path.
Pro tip: The first expert habit is not prompt cleverness. It is knowing what account you are using, what data Copilot can access, and what must be verified.
