Microsoft 365 Message Center announcement MC1540258.
MS Message Center's Summary
Microsoft Power Automate retires Copilot support within the cloud flow and agent flow designer on November 30 2026. Existing flows remain fully functional and manual authoring capabilities are unaffected. Administrators should inform relevant makers about this upcoming retirement and advise them to transition towards supported alternative tools like GitHub Copilot or Microsoft Copilot Studio for natural language flow creation before the deadline.
- Administrator impact
- Administrators must notify affected makers about the upcoming retirement of designer Copilot features.
- End user impact
- Makers will lose natural language Copilot assistance inside the flow designer but retain all manual creation and editing capabilities.
- Importance
- 3/10: This is a scheduled feature retirement that requires communication with makers but involves no administrative configuration changes.

On November 30, 2026, Copilot in the designer for cloud flows or agent flows will have reached end of support. How does this affect me? Makers will no longer be able to use Copilot in the designer for cloud flows or agent flows. This deprecation doesn't delete, move, or change existing cloud flows or agent flows, including flows created or edited with Copilot. Makers will still be able to create, edit, test, and run cloud flows and agent flows in the designer, including starting from templates. Flows may also be edited directly in the designer, using the expression editor to write expressions, and using the flow checker and run history to troubleshoot. What action do I need to take? Please communicate as appropriate with your Power Automate and Copilot Studio users. To keep building and editing flows in natural language, please use the Power Automate plugin in a supported AI assistant, such as GitHub Copilot , or Connect to Microsoft Copilot Studio with MCP .
