Microsoft Copilot Setup
This page covers the current state of Microsoft Copilot (Copilot Studio) MCP integration. For a quick reference across all platforms, see the MCP Client Setup page.
Current Status
Status: Evolving. Microsoft has announced MCP support for Copilot Studio as part of their enterprise agent platform. The integration is enterprise-oriented and aimed at organizations building custom agents within the Microsoft 365 ecosystem.
Microsoft's MCP implementation is actively changing. Rather than provide speculative configuration steps that may become outdated, this page describes what we know and how to stay updated.
What We Know
- •Microsoft announced MCP support for Copilot Studio in 2025.
- •The integration targets enterprise customers building custom agents in the Microsoft 365 ecosystem.
- •MCP support is expected to follow the standard stdio transport protocol, which Data Workers already supports.
- •Azure AI Foundry is the platform where MCP server connections will be configured.
Compatibility
The Data Workers MCP server (npx dw-claw) is fully compatible with any standard MCP implementation. The server uses stdio transport and follows the MCP specification exactly. The only variable is how Microsoft's client connects to MCP servers — the server side requires no changes.
Recommended Approach
- •Monitor the official Microsoft Copilot Studio documentation for MCP server configuration guidance.
- •When MCP support reaches GA in Copilot Studio, the connection will use
npx dw-claw— the same command used by every other client. - •Join our Discord (discord.com/invite/b8DR5J53) for community-reported configuration steps as the integration stabilizes.
Environment Variables
When Microsoft Copilot MCP support is available, you will need the same environment variables as other clients:
- •
SNOWFLAKE_ACCOUNT,SNOWFLAKE_USER,SNOWFLAKE_PASSWORD— Snowflake - •
GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT,GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS— BigQuery / Dataplex - •
DATABRICKS_HOST,DATABRICKS_TOKEN— Databricks - •
DBT_API_TOKEN,DBT_ACCOUNT_ID— dbt Cloud
We will update this page with verified configuration steps once Microsoft's MCP support reaches general availability.
