How to use E2B with Copilot Studio

You want E2B inside Copilot Studio so it can run reproducible data analyses, generate charts from raw data, test code in an isolated environment, and validate generated code before deployment — without you copy-pasting between tabs. Here is the whole setup, once.

Create your E2B gateway

The gateway is the thing Copilot Studio connects to, and it is where you decide which E2B tools an agent may use. You create it once and every client reuses it.

  1. Create an Arcade account

    Sign up and open the dashboard. The free tier is enough to follow this through.

  2. Create an MCP Gateway and select your E2B tools

    In the dashboard, create a gateway and pick the E2B tools you want to expose. The gateway is what your client connects to, and it is where tool access is decided.

  3. Copy your gateway URL

    Every client below needs it.

Heads up

Needs a Microsoft 365 subscription with access to Copilot Studio, plus an Arcade API key.

  1. Add an MCP tool to your agent

    In Copilot Studio, open your agent → Tools → Add a tool → Model Context Protocol → New tool.

  2. Point it at your gateway

    Give the server a name and description, put your gateway URL in Server URL, set Authentication to OAuth 2.0 and Type to Dynamic discovery.

  3. Authorize and try it out

    Saving redirects you to Arcade to approve access. Then start a conversation and use your E2B tools — Arcade authorizes each service just in time.

Treat sandbox execution as arbitrary code: use tool permissions to limit which workflows can run code or generate charts. Pair it with Contextual Access policies so an agent can run only the actions approved for its context.
