OneNote as a knowledge base

Is Microsoft working on permitting a OneNote as a knowledge base for the development of a Copilot agent? If not, this is a painpoint. OneNote is used for documentation and being able to query this is essential. This is constantly updated so docs and pdf snapshots in a point in time is inefficient use for a copilot agent.

You can add OneNote pages as references to a M365 Copilot Notebook which I'm starting to play with now. However, I think there is a limit. I suspect and hope that MS will allow Notebooks and or Sections of Notebooks as references soon. Likewise, in Copilot Studio agents.

I am thinking maybe a workaround could be building a Power Automate flow that automatically exports a new version of the OneNote pdf file as knowledge base every time the OneNote is updated replacing the existing file. Not sure how well that work. But I will try your Notebook suggestion first!
