If your users are building SharePoint Skills and Agents, could you answer these questions?
How many exist in your tenant?
Who can create them?
What can they reach?

Securing an API with Microsoft Entra ID shouldn't depend on your backend stack.
.NET, Laravel, Node.js, Python - the underlying pattern is the same:
• Separate API and client app registrations
• Expose API scopes
• Request delegated permissions
• Validate access tokens at the API boundary
One architecture. Any stack.
I broke down the complete flow with practical examples.

Today we’re taking another step toward our vision of an agent for every person and every process.
Last month, we started rolling out Autopilot. Today, Copilot Studio is taking the next step with persistent agents in Microsoft 365. This means each agent can have its own account, so people can email it, add it to a Teams chat or channel or mention it in Word, Excel or PowerPoint. Business process memory carries all the teamwork and context forward in the next cycles all while IT stays in control.
The first capabilities begin rolling out in preview today, with more planned.
