Question

Can I pull shared skill's usage and analytical data?

Dara K 0

Is it possible to pull usage and adoption related data/trend for the skill shared within the organization?

Goal is to identify

Who are/were the active users

How many tasks were done using this shared skill

Average tasks per users

What tasks/questions were done using this skill?

Hello Dara K ,
Yes, this is possible to some extent, but it depends on what type of shared skill or agent you’re using.

For a Copilot Studio agent, the built-in Analytics dashboard can show overall adoption trends, active-user counts, sessions, and topic/action usage. This should help identify how frequently the skill is being used and which tasks are triggered most often.

However, details such as the names of individual users, exact questions asked, and average tasks per named user may not be available directly through standard analytics. For that level of reporting, you may need conversation transcript data or custom telemetry through Application Insights, followed by reporting in Power BI.

Also, keep privacy, compliance, and data-retention policies in mind before reporting employee identities or their exact prompts.

So, aggregated usage and adoption reporting is supported, but detailed user-to-task tracking may require additional telemetry. The exact options will depend on whether this is a Copilot Studio agent, a Microsoft 365 Copilot agent, or another type of shared skill.

@Sayali-MSFT is this "overall adoption trends, active-user counts, sessions, and topic/action usage" also possible for CoWork skill plugin? It's not agent, one others get to install it from cowork-customize-shared with me.

Thanks for clarifying. If this is a Cowork** skill/plugin shared through Customize > Shared with **me, rather than a Copilot Studio agent, the Copilot Studio Analytics capabilities I mentioned above don't directly apply.

The Microsoft 365 admin center provides a Cowork** usage dashboard with organization-level metrics such as active Cowork users, total tasks, average tasks per user, adoption and retention trends. However, Microsoft currently doesn't document equivalent analytics scoped to an individual shared Cowork **skill/plugin, such as who used that specific skill, how many tasks invoked it, or which questions/tasks were submitted through it.

So the overall Cowork adoption metrics are available, but per-shared-skill usage analytics don't appear to be exposed through the standard reporting experience currently.

Is individual shared skill/plugin level data tracking in the product dev. roadmap? Either short or long term?

At the moment, I’m not aware of any publicly announced roadmap or timeline, short-term or long-term, for individual shared skill/plugin-level usage analytics in CoWork.

Microsoft does provide broader Copilot and agent analytics, but equivalent tracking at the individual shared skill/plugin level does not appear to be publicly documented today.
