One Agent Isn't Enough — Build Multi-Agent Systems in Copilot Studio

Description

In this video, I walk you through how to build a multi-agent system in Copilot Studio where a parent agent orchestrates a child agent built inside it, connects to a Microsoft Foundry agent, and connects to a separate Copilot Studio agent. #copilotstudio #microsoftfoundry #multiagentsystems #agent2agent We start with why one agent isn't always enough, and when it makes sense to split work across multiple agents. Then I show you exactly how to set it up, step by step. What's covered: - Why single-agent setups hit limits - What multi-agent orchestration actually means (and when to use it) - A real use case to make it concrete - How to create a child agent inside a parent agent in Copilot Studio - How to connect a Microsoft Foundry agent to your Copilot Studio agent - How to connect a separate Copilot Studio agent - Full demo walkthrough If you're building agents in Copilot Studio and want to scale beyond a single agent, this is the video for you. 🔐 To set up the right permissions for your Foundry agent, watch this video first: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_P8KhBEmxk&t=80s ⏱️ Timestamps: - 00:00 – Intro - 00:10 – Why not just one agent? - 02:05 – Single vs. multi-agent systems - 04:15 – Multi-agent orchestration in Copilot Studio - 07:55 – Use case walkthrough - 11:10 – Creating a child agent inside the parent agent - 16:28 – Connecting a Microsoft Foundry agent - 20:30 – Connecting a separate Copilot Studio agent If you found this helpful, subscribe to the channel for more videos on Copilot Studio, Microsoft Foundry, and Power Platform.
