Body (from Message Center)

We are announcing the ability to create Dataverse agent users with Microsoft Entra agent identity in Microsoft Dataverse. This feature will reach public preview on May 22, 2026.

How does this affect me?
This feature allows users to securely deploy AI agents to access and interact with Dataverse data using enterprise managed Microsoft Entra agent identities. With this feature, agents are provisioned as Dataverse agent users with dedicated, least-privileged security roles based on their intended capabilities.

This feature ensures agents have only the access required to perform tasks autonomously or on behalf of users. With identity based role assignment and full auditing of agent driven actions, security and compliance policies are enforced across both human users and AI agents while maintaining traceability of data access and changes within Dataverse environments.

What action do I need to take?
