Hi,

We upload and remove Knowledge files in Copilots through a Power automate flow. Works good. But new files in Knowledge seems to require a re-publish before they get available in Published channels(?).

If this is not correct, I welcome a correction and reference. Otherwise I'm interested to know if anyone can tell if it is possible to Publish a Copilot through api call or similar?

Before and directly after force Publishing in Studio. Also ensured timings are out of play...

Thanks,

Hi,

I'm not sure if there is a way but one thing I am going to experiment with is using Power Automate for Desktop and publish new knowledge files with a quick flow.

Yes, there is, using the power platform build tools, you can do it via command line or with a devops pipeline:
