Delete Topic Skill

What problem does it solve?

Deleting a topic from a Copilot Studio agent requires more than just removing the local file, as local files are only a working copy of the live environment. Without syncing deletions to the live agent, outdated topics remain active, and accidental deletion of system topics can break core agent functionality.

Core Features & Use Cases

• End-to-end deletion workflow: Guides users through identifying, confirming, and deleting topics, then syncing the change to the live Copilot Studio environment via push.
• Built-in safety guardrails: Includes pre-deletion checkpoints, user confirmation prompts, system topic risk warnings, and dry-run previews to prevent accidental data loss or agent breakage.
• Use case: A maker needs to remove an outdated "Old Benefits FAQ" topic from their employee self-service agent to clean up the agent's navigation; this skill ensures the deletion is applied both locally and in the live environment, with a revert option if the deletion causes unexpected issues.

Quick Start

Use the delete topic skill to remove the "Legacy Password Reset" topic from your Copilot Studio agent and sync the change to the live environment.
