# Build business understanding with Dataverse in Microsoft 365 Copilot

**[DevBlogs](https://daily.dev/sources/devblogs)** · 5 min read · 1 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Microsoft 365 Copilot is now embedded as an in-app sidecar in Power Apps, Dynamics 365 Sales, and Dynamics 365 Customer Service. A new intelligent semantic layer in Dataverse Search enables true business data understanding, allowing Copilot to reason over CRM records, opportunities, and custom entities without app switching. Organizations can also capture procedural knowledge from existing workflows to guide Copilot behavior. A Dataverse MCP server provides agents built in Copilot Studio, GitHub Copilot, or Azure AI Foundry with structured, secure access to business data. New MCP tools for business understanding are available in preview starting late March.
