Data loss prevention example - Configure a policy for skills

Agent makers in your organization can extend their agents with skills. Skills can be a useful way of extending the functionality of your agents, however you may want to configure which skills agents can use for security purposes.

You can use the Skills with Copilot Studio connector in Power Platform data loss prevention (DLP) policies to configure which agents can connect to skills.

See the Configure data loss prevention policies for agents topic for information about other DLP-related connectors.

Configure a policy for skills in the Power Platform admin center

Select or create a policy

  1. In the Power Platform admin center, under Policies, select Data policies.

  2. Create a new policy, or choose an existing policy to edit:

    • If you want to create a new policy, select New policy.

    • If you want to choose an existing policy to edit, select the policy and select Edit policy.

  3. Enter a name for the policy then select Next. You can change the name later.

Choose an environment

  1. Choose one or more environments to add to your policy.

  2. Select Add to policy.

  3. Select Next.

Add the connector

  1. Use the search box to find the Skills with Copilot Studio connector.

  2. Select the connector's More actions icon (), and then select Block.

  3. Select Next.

  4. Review your policy, then select Update policy to apply the DLP changes.

Confirm policy enforcement in Copilot Studio

You can confirm that this connector is being used in the DLP policy from Copilot Studio.

Open your agent from the environment where the DLP policy is applied, and try to add a skill to the agent.

If the policy is enforced, the Add a skill panel reports an error and suggests you contact an admin to add the skill to the allowlist.
