Get Started with GitHub with Copilot Studio and the Power Platform

Copilot Studio - Solutions

In my last post, I mentioned that YAML in the Power Platform can be stored and versioned for products such as Copilot Studio, and it’s becoming more important to learn. Now, if you want to do this you need to understand version control with Git and GitHub to manage your code (YAML) and collaborate efficiently.

Luckily GitHub has a “Hello World” guide and an entire skills course that’s easy to follow and teaches you how to:

• 📁 Create a Repository
• 🌿 Create a Branch
• 💾 Make a Commit
• 🔀 Open a Pull Request
• ✅ Merge Your Pull Request

Don’t worry if you do not think you’re a ‘pro-coder’, Git and the process of the Software Development Lifecycle is something you should strive to have in your skill set, and the guide and courses provided by GitHub makes it super easy to get started. Best of all, it’s free, check the comment for the links!
