Hey all,
I've taken all steps here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-copilot-studio/nlu-generative-answers-sharepoint-onedrive to connect a copilot chatbot to documents in a sharepoint onedrive folder. But the bot doesnt seem to be able to access sharepoint. How do I fix this?
Hi, @lemonsandlimes .
One easy way to test SP integration with generative answers, before doing the manual authentication setup, is getting it to work in PVA Studio's Test UI with the Teams/PowerApps auto authentication. The Test UI is able to make the Graph calls on your behalf in the browser, whereas the bot in Teams needs the delegated permissions from the app registration via manual authentication (this is why it won't work to use the bot as-is in Teams, since it needs the manual authentication)
Having said that, the out-of-the-box configuration often produces no results, and the first thing I suggest is lowering the moderation to "Low" and then focusing on a term in a page and a document to see if you can get hits on one or the other. At this point you're really just looking to confirm whether you can get results of any kind, to determine that there is a connection.

Continuing the conversation about this subject, My issue is that both the "Public websites & Sharepoint sources" and "Copilot content moderation" fields initially being greyed out. I was signed into the default Office365 environment, however after switching to another environment which was actually an environment that shows up in the list as a "Supported environment", I was able to create another Copilot where I could then specify a local file repository.
There seems to be a lot to navigate and clarify here. Or, I may just be overthinking it. Appreciate any inputs.
