Learning point: Use a custom agent when the organization needs a focused reusable experience with its own instructions, knowledge sources, or capabilities. Custom agents tailor Copilot to specific business scenarios, knowledge, and processes beyond the general built-in experience.

Question 28

Lamna Healthcare is documenting its administrative model. Which choice most accurately describes the capability needed to produce an in-depth multi-source research report with cited sources from work content and the web? The solution should preserve least privilege and existing governance where possible.

  1. Use Microsoft 365 Copilot usage/readiness reports and Copilot Analytics to monitor adoption, engagement, and usage trends
  2. Use Copilot agent access settings in the Microsoft 365 admin center to allow all users, no users, or specific users and groups as required
  3. Use Agent Builder in Microsoft 365 Copilot to create and test a declarative agent with the required name, instructions, knowledge, prompts, and capabilities
  4. Assign or remove the appropriate Microsoft 365 Copilot license for the target users or supported groups in Microsoft 365 licensing administration
  5. Use Researcher for deep, multi-source research that synthesizes authorized work content and web information into a structured response

Question 29

An administrator reviewing new-user onboarding for Proseware must analyze a dataset for trends, anomalies, and quantitative insights. Which Microsoft 365 control or object should be used? The team wants the smallest change that directly addresses the requirement.

  1. Use Copilot agent access settings in the Microsoft 365 admin center to allow all users, no users, or specific users and groups as required
  2. Assign or remove the appropriate Microsoft 365 Copilot license for the target users or supported groups in Microsoft 365 licensing administration
  3. Use the Microsoft 365 admin center agent approval and lifecycle controls to review the submitted agent before publishing or deploying it
  4. Choose the Microsoft 365 Copilot per-user license for licensed-user capabilities or a supported pay-as-you-go billing policy when usage-based consumption is the requirement
  5. Use Analyst for data-oriented work such as cleaning, summarizing, and reasoning over numbers and spreadsheets

Correct answer: E

Why: Analyst is designed for quantitative and data-analysis tasks across supported data sources. This directly addresses the stated requirement.
