Within a Power Automate Flow you can use a Create List Item node to add items to a sharepoint list; I would start there. You may find others have posted similar questions here in the community forums as well in the past.

Thanks! --jim

Hi @Jupyter123,

One way to achieve this would be to call a Power Automate cloud flow, for example as part of your Greeting topic.
The flow would then add a record in your SharePoint list with the user details (and perhaps check if it already exists to avoid creating duplicates).
You can learn how to create a cloud flow in PVA here: Call a flow as an action - Power Virtual Agents | Microsoft Learn

Just a word of warning: calling a cloud flow as part of the greeting topic would make the session to be counted as a billed session, even if the user doesn't engage anymore in the conversation.
