That said, if you're looking to build something Copilot-like or want to use Power Platform Copilot tools, there is a workaround using Power Platform + Custom Connectors:
- What You Can Do
You can connect Power Apps or Power Automate (and use Copilot inside them) to your Business Central On-Premise system via:
OData v4 or SOAP web services published from your on-prem environment
A Custom Connector created in Power Platform or via Azure API Management
An On-premises Data Gateway to securely expose those services to the cloud
Once that’s set up, you can:
Build Power Automate flows (with Copilot assistance) that read/write to BC On-Prem
Use Power Apps with Copilot to interact with BC data in a low-code/no-code interface
- Key Setup Steps
Make sure your Business Central instance exposes the right OData/SOAP endpoints
Set up the On-premises Data Gateway on a server that has access to BC
It’s not quite plug-and-play, but if you're comfortable with the Power Platform, this is a solid approach to bring some AI-powered experiences to your on-prem system.
