Microsoft Unveils Preview of New Microsoft 365 and Copilot Program for Independent Software Vendors

November 16, 2023 Microsoft Partner News

In a recent announcement, Microsoft has unveiled a preview of its new Microsoft 365 and Copilot program in Partner Center. This exciting development is set to significantly impact all partners, particularly independent software vendors (ISVs).

The new program allows ISVs to submit apps that include Copilot plugins and Graph connectors for various Microsoft 365 applications such as Teams, Outlook, and more. This is a significant step forward as it enables developers to package plugins and Graph connectors into a unified app manifest. They can then publish their app to Partner Center, a platform that simplifies the process of managing and optimizing apps.

Once the apps have been validated, they will be made available in the Microsoft 365 admin center. This is a centralized location where administrators can discover new apps and enable them for their users. This not only streamlines the process of app discovery and deployment but also ensures that only validated and trusted apps are made available to users.

Moreover, users can discover these apps and plugins through the app store in Teams, Outlook, and Microsoft365.com. This provides an additional layer of convenience, as users can easily find and install the apps they need without having to navigate away from their workspace.

Microsoft's new initiative is a testament to their commitment to fostering a vibrant and diverse ecosystem of apps. It provides developers with the tools and platforms they need to create innovative solutions, while also ensuring that users have easy access to these apps.

As next steps, partners are encouraged to learn more about this new experience. Detailed information can be found at "Publish plugins and Graph connectors for Copilot for Microsoft 365". This resource provides a comprehensive overview of the new program, including how to get started and best practices for success.

At Qloud Blog, we are excited about this new development and look forward to seeing the innovative apps and plugins that will be created as a result. We believe that this program will not only benefit developers and users but also contribute to the overall growth and evolution of the Microsoft 365 ecosystem.
