Copilot: Maximizing Copilot with Comprehensive Data Integration
Azure Connect expands Copilot's capabilities by facilitating access to data from external systems such as your CRM, ERP, Finance or HR systems. Through Azure Connect, developers can craft plugins using the OpenAI schema, connecting application data directly to Copilot.
This allows Copilot to perform a wider array of actions by fetching real-time information from these external sources, thus enhancing user interactions with richer, more informed responses and making your AI assistant far more powerful and versatile. Azure Connect API Plugins can retrieve information or perform tasks on behalf of a user. For example, a plugin can provide real-time bidirectional access to your Salesforce CRM, such as changes to contact or opportunity records, enabling Copilot to seamlessly integrate and interpret Salesforce data, providing real-time, actionable insights directly within your workflow.
