You need to be part of the Frontier preview program to get early access to Microsoft Agent 365. Frontier connects you directly with Microsoft’s latest AI innovations. Frontier previews are subject to the existing preview terms of your customer agreements. As these features are still in development, their availability and capabilities may change over time.
Agent 365 gives each AI agent its own Microsoft Entra Agent ID, for identity, lifecycle, and access management. It also allows agents to be observable and managed in the Microsoft 365 admin center. In addition, AI agents might adopt Agent 365 capabilities that empower these agents to listen for tool notifications and take actions directly within productivity tools.
Agent 365 is built to address the needs of a range of stakeholders.
With Agent 365, IT administrators can monitor agent activity, enforce policies, resolve issues, and manage threats, ensuring agents behave securely and in compliance with enterprise standards.

Agent 365 integrates with Microsoft Purview to apply data protection policies and audit agent activity, and with Microsoft Defender to detect, investigate, and respond to threats in real time.

Benefits
Microsoft Agent 365 allows you to manage all your organization’s AI agents at scale, regardless of where these agents are built or acquired.
Here are some of the key benefits with Agent 365.
Register
Get a complete view of all agents that are being used in your organization, including agents with agent ID, agents you register yourself, and shadow agents.
Control
Bring agents under management and limit their access to only the resources they need. Prevent agent compromise with risk-based conditional access policies.
Visualize
Explore connections between agents, people, and data. Monitor agent behavior and performance in real time to assess their impact on your organization.
Interoperate
Equip agents with apps and data to simplify human-agent workflows. Connect them to Work IQ to provide context of work to onboard into business processes.
Secure
Protect agents from threats, and detect and remediate attacks that target agents. Protect data that agents create and use from oversharing, leaks, and risky agent behavior.
Prerequisites
Tenants must be part of the Frontier preview program and have agreed to the Agent 365 terms of service. The preview disclaimers in your customer agreements apply. In order to access features in Frontier, the tenant needs to have at least one license of Microsoft 365 Copilot to enable Microsoft Agent 365 in Frontier.
Enable Agent 365
To start with Agent 365, sign into Microsoft 365 admin center > select Copilot > select Settings > under User access, select Copilot Frontier > choose the specific users, groups, or select all to grant access to the Frontier program.
After you've granted users and groups the access to the Copilot Frontier program, go to Agents from the left-pane inside the Microsoft 365 admin center to get started. You might be prompted to agree to the terms of service.
