Microsoft 365 Admin Center: Agent-Level Controls for Pay-as-you-go

Summary

This feature introduces admin controls for managing AI agents on a consumption basis within Microsoft 365 Copilot. Administrators can specify which users can access particular agents through pay-as-you-go, control which agents are available for metered consumption, and establish billing policy for each agent. Initially focusing on declarative agents in M365 Copilot Chat and SharePoint, this enhancement enables organizations to effectively manage AI consumption costs and scale intelligent capabilities according to business needs. #copilotcontrolsystem
