Copilot Studio Classic: Best approach for searching ~2,000 records? (SharePoint List)

I'm building an agent in Copilot Studio Classic that needs to search through a SharePoint list with around 2,000 records.

Since I'm limited to the Classic Experience, I've tried two approaches:

1. SharePoint Get Items

  • Works, but only a limited number of records can be returned to the agent, making it difficult to reliably search the full dataset.

2. Exporting the data to a text file and using it as Knowledge

  • The agent can answer questions based on the file, but the results are not always reliable.
  • It seems to retrieve relevant information rather than deterministically evaluate every record matching the criteria.

My challenge is finding a way to search a large dataset and return consistent results when users ask for records matching specific criteria.

Copilot Studio (classic agent UI) – How do you prevent the orchestrator from repeating a subagent's response?

Hi everyone,

I'm using Microsoft Copilot Studio with the classic agent (old ui) experience and a multi-agent setup consisting of an orchestrator and a subagent.

The subagent is responsible for collecting information from the user and asking follow-up questions. However, after the subagent asks a question, the orchestrator often repeats the exact same question or rephrases it before returning control to the user.

For example (translation from image):

Subagent: "Are the extracted details correct and complete? Please confirm with Yes or provide corrections."

Orchestrator: "Are the extracted details correct and complete? Please confirm with Yes or provide corrections."

This happens even though my orchestrator instructions explicitly state that it should:

  • Never repeat responses from a subagent
  • Never summarize or rephrase a subagent response
  • Return the subagent output directly to the user

Has anyone experienced the same behavior with child agents or connected agents in the classic agent UI?
