Hi Team,

I need clarification on how licensing works for Copilot Studio. Do I need a separate Power Automate license to run a flow and separate license for Business Central premium connector?

no, agents built with copilot studio are using messages as a currency. by purchasing messages you can use either standard or premium connectors within a cloud flow and you do not need an additional power automate premium license.

additionally, when invoking a prompt within an agent (AI prompts from AI Builder), it does not consume AI Builder credits.
