I would like to know can Copilot Studio 
  • poll new message from a Teams Channel at a specified intervals (say 5 mins)
  • after AI generated an answer on the message from the Teams Channel, can I use adaptive card to send the reply back to the channel
Or this needs to be done with something like Agent Flow. I am not sure can adaptive card directly trigger Agent Flow.

    Hi @KW-18110402-0

    Yes — but with a few caveats.


    • Polling Teams messages:

      Microsoft Copilot Studio itself doesn’t natively poll a Teams channel on a timer (e.g., every 5 minutes). For that, you typically use Microsoft Power Automate with a scheduled trigger or Teams trigger, then pass the message into Copilot (or an agent flow).

    • Sending replies with Adaptive Cards:

      Yes, you can send a response back to a Teams channel using Adaptive Cards. This is commonly done via Power Automate or a bot action after generating the AI response.

    • Do you need Agent Flow?

      If your logic is simple (fetch → generate → respond), Power Automate is enough.

      Use an Agent Flow (Copilot Studio orchestration) if you need more complex multi-step reasoning or tool use.

    • Triggering Agent Flow from Adaptive Card:

      Not directly. Adaptive Cards don’t trigger flows by themselves — you need an action (e.g., submit) that calls Power Automate or a bot endpoint, which then invokes the Agent Flow.
