Unable to Publish Agent in Microsoft Copilot Studio

Posted on by asit00

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to publish an agent in Microsoft Copilot Studio, but I’m getting the following:

Here’s my situation:

I already have a Copilot Studio license at the tenant level
The license shows active in Microsoft 365 Admin Center
However, it mentions that licenses can’t be assigned to users

Do I also need a Copilot Studio user license to publish agents?

Has anyone faced the same issue recently?

Thanks in advance!

Hello asit00,
Your account currently has a tenant-level (capacity) license but does not have a per-user license assigned.

To resolve this, an admin should:

Assign a Copilot Studio per-user license to your account in the Admin Center under Users > Licenses and apps,

or enable and assign a free trial license.

While the tenant-level license covers message capacity for the organization, it does not provide individual publishing rights. Both licenses are required.

Hi @asit00,

you have the tenant-level "Copilot Studio" license (which can't be assigned to users), but to publish agents, your account needs a Copilot Studio user license assigned personally to you.[learn.microsoft]

Go to the Microsoft 365 admin center > Users > Active users > pick your account > Manage product licenses > check "Copilot Studio user license" > Save. Sign out/in to Copilot Studio, and you should be good to publish.[learn.microsoft]

Best regards,

Valantis
