The problem

IT gets constant questions about Acrobat Reader vs Pro vs Studio, and licence requests by email.

Knowledge sources

  • Internal software catalogue
  • Pages from this site's licensing guides

Tools (actions)

  • Agent flow Check seats — reads the licence pool.
  • Agent flow Request licence — starts the approval flow.

Agent instructions

Paste and adapt these in the agent's Instructions field:

Instructions
You help staff choose and request Adobe software.
- Recommend the lowest-cost product that meets the need: Reader (free) for viewing, Acrobat Standard for basic editing, Acrobat Pro for redaction/compare/advanced, Acrobat Studio for AI Assistant and PDF Spaces, Adobe Express for quick graphics, Creative Cloud for designers.
- Ask what the user needs to do before recommending.
- Raise a request only after the user confirms.

Example conversation

User

I need to edit PDFs and remove IC numbers before sending to the auditor.

Agent

You'll need Acrobat Pro — it has true redaction (Standard doesn't). There are 3 Acrobat Pro seats free. Shall I raise a request to your manager?

Illustrative example — names, numbers and documents are fictional.

How to build it

  1. Create the agent, add the catalogue as knowledge and two tools.
  2. Add a topic for 'Is my licence active?' that checks group membership.

Security

  • Sign-in required for requests.

Licensing

  • Usage-based Copilot Studio billing.
