Language support

You can create agents in Copilot Studio in many languages. Your agents can reach a broader audience and engage with more markets around the world.

Specify the primary language for your agent

Specify the target language when you create your agent.

Important

Once you set your agent's primary language, it can't be changed. You can only add secondary languages. For more information on how to configure multilingual agents, see Configure and create multilingual agents.

  1. From the Home page, select Create > New agent.

  2. Select Edit language, then select a language from Primary agent language, and then Save.

  3. When you're finished configuring your agent, select Create at the top of the page.

Default content in the target language

After your new agent is created, you notice it already has content in the target language, including system topics and template user topics on the Topics page.

You can create new topics for your agent, author agent trigger phrases, and create agent messages in your target language.

You can test the agent in the chat pane. In chat, you see how well the agent understands user input and how it responds in that language.

List of supported languages

Copilot Studio supports languages in three stages. The stage indicates how well the agent can understand user input in that language, with general availability being the strongest, followed by preview, and then experimental.

Note

Support levels include your Microsoft customer service support. For example, with features in preview, you can't yet contact Microsoft for technical support with Copilot Studio. In general availability, you can contact Microsoft for Copilot Studio support.
