What is the Microsoft Certified AI Agent Builder Associate?
Microsoft Certified: AI Agent Builder Associate is an intermediate-level Microsoft certification earned with a single exam, AB-620. Microsoft lists the roles as app maker and developer, and the products as Azure, Microsoft 365 Copilot, Microsoft Copilot Studio and Microsoft Power Platform.
Microsoft describes the candidate as a professional developer or advanced builder who builds, extends and integrates custom agents for enterprise-grade solutions — typically an IT application developer, consultant or ISV partner creating scalable AI solutions for organisations or customers. It is not a beginner credential about using Copilot; it is about building and integrating agents.

AB-620 certification status
The AB-620 certification is live and can be scheduled through Pearson VUE. On 10 October 2026 Microsoft’s certification page did not label it as beta, and Microsoft lists no retirement date for it.
One gap to know about: Microsoft’s free Practice Assessment for AB-620 is not currently available. Microsoft says practice assessments usually appear within eight weeks of an exam being out of beta and generally available, so check the certification page before you plan around it.

AB-620 exam format, cost and passing score
You have 120 minutes for the AB-620 exam. A score of 700 or greater on Microsoft’s scale is required to pass. Microsoft does not publish the number of questions for this exam, and it does not state whether AB-620 contains labs.
On cost, Microsoft states that the price is based on the country or region in which the exam is proctored, so there is no single figure; you see yours when you schedule.
The exam is offered in 13 languages: English, Arabic (Saudi Arabia), Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), French, German, Indonesian (Indonesia), Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian and Spanish. If your preferred language is not available, Microsoft lets you request an additional 30 minutes. Microsoft also offers an exam sandbox to explore the exam interface beforehand.

What is on the AB-620 exam?
The study guide, titled Designing and Building Integrated AI Agent Solutions in Copilot Studio, splits the exam into three skill areas. Integration carries the most weight: almost half the exam is about connecting agents to knowledge, tools, other agents and Azure.
- Plan and configure agent solutions — 30–35%: planning integration, identity, channels, responsible AI and governance; agent flows including human-in-the-loop; topics, custom prompts, generative answers and adaptive cards
- Integrate and extend agents in Copilot Studio — 40–45%: Copilot and Power Platform connectors, Azure AI Search, computer use, MCP tools, REST APIs, multi-agent solutions with Foundry and Fabric agents and the A2A protocol, Application Insights
- Test and manage agents — 20–25%: test sets and evaluation methods, solutions, environment variables and Power Platform Pipelines for ALM

AB-620 prerequisites and recommended experience
Microsoft lists no prerequisite certification for AB-620. What it does list is the knowledge the exam assumes: familiarity with Power Fx, Microsoft Dataverse, Power Platform environments and components, Microsoft 365 Copilot, Microsoft Foundry and adaptive cards.
On top of that, Microsoft expects intermediate knowledge of generative AI concepts — models, orchestration, retrieval-augmented generation, Model Context Protocol and the Agent2Agent protocol — experience with prompt engineering, REST APIs and integration patterns, and hands-on experience configuring agents with knowledge sources, instructions, tools and topics in Copilot Studio.
Most questions cover generally available features, but Microsoft notes that commonly used preview features can appear too.

AB-620 study guide and official preparation
The reference document is Microsoft’s study guide for Exam AB-620. It lists every skill measured beneath the three areas above and is the checklist to study against, item by item.
Microsoft’s certification page also links a course under “Prepare for the exam”. Because the Practice Assessment is not available yet, hands-on time in Copilot Studio — building agent flows, wiring connectors and MCP tools, running test sets and moving agents between environments with solutions — is the most direct way to cover the skills list.

How long is the AB-620 certification valid?
Microsoft associate, expert and specialty certifications expire annually. You renew by passing a free online assessment on Microsoft Learn, so keeping AB-620 current costs time but not an exam fee.

AB-620 vs AB-100
AB-620 is an associate certification for the people who build agents. AB-100 is the exam for Microsoft Certified: Agentic AI Business Solutions Architect Expert, aimed at designing agent-based business solutions.
The two connect: to earn the AB-100 expert certification you must pass AB-100 and hold at least one associate-level certification from Microsoft’s list, and AI Agent Builder Associate (AB-620) is on that list. For a builder who wants to move into architecture, AB-620 can therefore serve as the associate step.

AB-620 dumps and exam questions
AB-620 dumps are explicitly against Microsoft’s rules. Microsoft’s exam security policies name using brain dump material, and unauthorised publication of exam questions with or without answers, as misconduct, and define a brain dump as a source containing exam questions that were fraudulently obtained to share or sell. The stated consequence can include having credentials and scores revoked.
Legitimate AB-620 exam questions for practice are a different thing: questions written against the published skills list that explain why an answer is right or wrong. Those train the judgement the exam tests rather than memorised items.
