Cannot see the option to create Copilot Plugin with the new teams toolkit extension for VSCode

I'm trying to create an API Plugin package for Microsoft Copilot for Microsoft 365. I'm using Teams Toolkit extension in VSCode to do that. However, I cannot find the option Copilot Plugin under Create a New App option.

I'm using the Teams Toolkit extension version v5.8.1

Hello, @zafarsyed , if you want to develop API plugin, you need to enable it in the Settings page as below:

File -> Preferences -> Settings -> Enable "Develop Copilot Plugin"

@SLdragon I changed the settings and did reload the window, still don't see the option

@zafarsyed
Oh, for version 5.8.1, please also set the system environment variable API_COPILOT_PLUGIN to true and restart all VSCode instances for it to take effect. In future TTK releases, this environment variable will no longer be necessary

@SLdragon thanks, it worked.
