Author: Microsoft Developer - Bewertung: 10x - Views:74

In this end-to-end developer walkthrough, David Rousset shows how to build a Foundry Hosted Agent running inside Microsoft 365 Copilot using a fun Blender 3D scenario.



You’ll see the full workflow:

- using the VS Code Foundry extension and the Hotel Python template

- testing the agent in the local Playground

- debugging the experience locally

- switching to the local Blender agent to validate the scenario

- deploying the agent

- testing it in the remote Playground in VS Code

- checking service logs and telemetry

- validating everything in the Foundry portal

- exploring observability with Application Insights



This video is a full build → test → deploy → monitor journey, aimed at developers who want a practical example of how Hosted Agents work in Microsoft 365 Copilot.
