Custom Copilot Studio Agent returns SystemError in Teams Meeting Chat before topic routing

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2
Environment:
- Microsoft Copilot Studio
- Microsoft Teams
- Generative AI orchestration enabled
 
Problem:
Our agent works correctly in:
- Test pane
- Regular Teams chats
 
However, all conversations initiated from Teams Meeting Chat fail immediately with:
 
"Sorry, something unexpected happened.
Error code: SystemError"
 
Observations:
- Session IDs from failing conversations are in the format:
19:meeting_*@thread.v2
 
- Analytics shows:
SessionOutcome = Unengaged
TopicName = blank
TopicId = blank
OutcomeReason = NoError
 
- The issue occurs even with a minimal test prompt ("hello").
 
- The issue occurs before any topic is triggered.
 
- Connection references are configured correctly.
 
- Flows are not executed.
 
Reproduction:
1. Create or join a Teams meeting.
2. Add the Copilot Studio agent to the meeting chat.
3. Send any message (e.g. "hello").
4. Agent returns SystemError.
 
Additional validation:
- Test Pane works correctly.
- Regular Teams chat works correctly.
- Meeting Chat fails consistently.
- Analytics indicates failure before topic routing.
 
Request:
Please investigate whether there is a known issue or limitation affecting Custom Copilot Studio Agents in Teams Meeting Chat context.

    Hi @Mohsin Ali,

    Thanks for sharing your solution. However, I believe the issue you described is different from the one I'm experiencing.

    In your case, the problem occurs in a Teams Channel, where the agent does not respond at all. In my case, the issue occurs specifically in a Teams Meeting Chat, and the agent does respond, but immediately returns a SystemError before topic routing is executed.

    Because of this difference in behavior, I'm unfortunately unable to apply your solution to my scenario. The root cause appears to be different.

    Thank you for taking the time to help, and please let me know if you have any suggestions related to Meeting Chat scenarios specifically.
