Connect Microsoft 365 Copilot to Runlayer

Control
What Runlayer can see and stop in Microsoft 365 Copilot
Some controls apply to every client at the gateway. Others depend on what Microsoft 365 Copilot exposes to Runlayer.
Gateway policy (available)
Every Zapier call from Microsoft 365 Copilot passes through Runlayer, where your policies can allow, alert, mask, or block it.
Audit trail (available)
Each call is recorded with the user, Microsoft 365 Copilot as the client, the tool, and the policy and scanner decisions.
Managed browser extension (available)
Managed Chrome, Edge, and Firefox deployments can monitor supported web-chat activity and apply prompt-time controls where the surface permits it.
Native enforcement adapter (not available)
Runlayer has no device-side adapter for Microsoft 365 Copilot yet, so control happens at the gateway.
