# MS365 Graph API

This guide walks you through enabling Microsoft Graph API access in ThreatDefence SIEM, including onboarding the "User Isolator" functionality.

> **Requirements:**
>
> * Access to Microsoft 365 services (Microsoft 365 Compliance Center, Azure Active Directory)
> * **E5 or P1/P2 Licensing** (ThreatDefence will automatically extract available security events based on your license).

***

## Step 1: Grant API Permissions in Azure Portal

### 1. Register an Application

* Create an Application ID and secret as described in the [Microsoft 365 Integration Guide](/microsoft-365/microsoft-365.md).

![Create Application](https://4191868192-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FOlFHF8fl339QOw3Og8L7%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-06871825da4c1795b9b04c0972733e8b13bc1c1a%2Fgrantapi.png?alt=media)

### 2. Assign Microsoft Graph API Permissions

* In your app registration, go to **API permissions**.
* Select **Microsoft Graph**.

### 3. Add Required Permissions

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.threatdefence.com/microsoft-365/ms-graph.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
