Copilot · Community sample

Expert Finder

Find colleagues by skill, explore profiles and availability, and request introduction drafts or confirmed Teams meetings in Microsoft 365 Copilot.

Copilot componentReactSPFx 1.24.1
Expert Finder architecture: Copilot invokes a typed SPFx tool that renders a React directory using SharePoint or fictional profiles, with optional Graph actions and introduction drafting.

The idea behind the sample

An SPFx 1.24.1 Copilot UX component that renders an expert directory inline and in fullscreen using React, Fluent UI v9 and a SharePoint Experts list.

Explore local filters, delegated Graph photos and free/busy availability, confirmed calendar-backed Teams meetings, and selected-profile introduction drafting in the Copilot conversation.

Learn component-to-Copilot context publishing: Introduce me awaits updateModelContextAsync with a minimal selected-profile snapshot, then uses sendFollowUpMessageAsync to request a draft in the existing conversation.

A missing Experts list selects bundled fictional profiles with local portraits. Mock profiles make no Graph calls, and live meetings require explicit confirmation.
