Early bird gets the agent! 🐦☕

Join me tomorrow morning at #PPCC for "Building Smarter Agents: When Low-Code Is Enough and When Pro-Code Is Preferred"

The real question with Copilot agents isn't low-code OR pro-code. It's knowing when each one creates the most value. We'll break down how to decide, with practical guidance you can use right away.

📅 Wed, Oct 28
⏰ 8:00 – 9:00 AM
📍 Grand 116
Grab your coffee and come say hi! 👋

🤖 AI is powerful, but sometimes you need a human in the loop.
In my latest video, I show how to use Copilot Studio Workflow's Human Review connector to add human oversight to AI-powered workflows, compare it with the traditional Approval connector, and demonstrate why it's a game changer for enterprise automation.
In this video, I'll show you:
🔓 How to enable the Human Review connector
🤖 Review an existing AI-powered workflow
❓ Why adding a human review step can dramatically improve reliability
🛠️ Enhance a workflow using the Human Review connector

🎁 Bonus: It works in both the current and new Copilot Studio experiences!
