Reserve an OpenTable dinner for two through Copilot Actions in Edge

PCMag's Michael Muchmore asked Copilot Actions in Edge to book an 8 p.m. table for two at a nearby Japanese restaurant on OpenTable, and it completed the booking. He had to supply a phone number and verification code, it first assumed the wrong city, and he found doing it himself was faster.

How to do it

  1. Turn on Copilot Mode in Microsoft Edge and enable Actions.
  2. State the city or neighborhood explicitly so it doesn't guess your location.
  3. Give party size, time, cuisine and the booking site to use.
  4. Enter your phone number and any verification code yourself.
  5. Confirm the reservation email arrives with the right details.

The prompt

Using OpenTable, book a table for two at 8 p.m. on [date] at a well-reviewed Japanese restaurant in [neighborhood, city]. Show me the top three options with ratings and availability before booking. Once I pick one, complete the reservation and stop if it asks for a phone number or verification code so I can enter it.
