You can now optionally use Claude models by Anthropic within your Microsoft products. These models are hosted by Anthropic outside of Microsoft. You can elect to use Anthropic's AI models with the Researcher agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot and Copilot Studio. For more information, see Use Claude with Researcher in Microsoft 365 Copilot.
Anthropic’s AI models can help people in your organization with some of the following:
- Summarize complex information
- Answer questions using source material
- Synthesize across multiple sources
- Idea generation, drafting and editing
Important
When your organization chooses to use an Anthropic model, your organization is choosing to share your data with Anthropic to power the features. This data is processed outside all Microsoft‑managed environments and audit controls, therefore Microsoft’s customer agreements, including the Product Terms and Data Processing Addendum do not apply. In addition, Microsoft’s data‑residency commitments, audit and compliance requirements, service level agreements, and Customer Copyright Commitment do not apply to your use of Anthropic services. Instead, use of Anthropic's services is governed by Anthropic’s Commercial Terms of Service and Anthropic’s Data Processing Addendum.
Before you begin
Before users in your organization can use Anthropic in the Microsoft Researcher agent, they need to be assigned a Microsoft 365 Copilot license.
Connect to Anthropic in the Microsoft 365 admin center
Important
Before your organization can connect to Anthropic AI models, you must allow access in the Microsoft 365 admin center.
You have to be a member of the Global administrator role to perform this task. For more information, see About admin roles.
- Go to the Microsoft 365 admin center and select Copilot -> Settings.
- On the Data access page, select AI providers for other large language models.
- Under LLM providers for your organization, choose Anthropic.
- Agree to the Terms and Conditions and select Allow provider.
After you connect, it may take a few hours for the connection to complete.
Additional controls for Copilot Studio in the Microsoft Power Platform admin center
Once enabled in the Microsoft 365 admin center, additional admin controls are available in the Microsoft Power Platform admin center (PPAC) to allow Anthropic to be used in Copilot Studio. For more information, see Allow external large language models (LLMs) for generative responses.
Disable connection to Anthropic
Your organization may decide that it no longer wants users to be able to access other LLMs. You can disable the model provider:
- Go to the Microsoft 365 admin center and select Copilot -> Settings.
- On the Data access page, select AI providers for other large language models.
- Under Available model providers for your organization, choose Anthropic, and select Block provider.
Once you disconnect Anthropic, users won’t have the option to use Anthropic’s AI models. After completing the steps to disconnect Anthropic in Microsoft 365, it may take several hours for the service to be fully disabled for your users.
