Copilot for Power Automate – AI-Enhanced Workflow Building

Overview

This optional add-on module is designed for participants who have completed the Power Automate Workflow Optimization course and want to take advantage of Microsoft Copilot’s AI-powered capabilities to build smarter, faster, and more user-friendly automations.

In this guided lab session, users will learn how to use Copilot to generate, refine, and explain Power Automate flows using natural language prompts—reducing the need for manual configuration and logic setup. This is ideal for non-developers and business professionals who want to build more complex flows with ease and confidence.
