Introducing: Copilot page in Power Platform admin center (preview)

On the Microsoft Power Apps blog, Caitlin Shaw wrote that as Copilots and generative AI features become more widely available across Microsoft Power Platform, admins are finding it more challenging to manage these features effectively. 

She stated that to help address these challenges, Microsoft is launching the preview of the Copilot page in the Power Platform admin center. 

Shaw explained that this new, centralized page offers a variety of resources, including readiness materials, documentation, insights into Copilot user activity, and unified settings for managing Copilot features.

In her blog post, Shaw noted that the Copilot page is a place for Power Platform admins to go for information, visibility, and controls for Power Platform Copilots. She also discussed what admins can find on the Copilot page.
