Microsoft Graph - Airia Explore

Microsoft Graph connects your organization’s Microsoft 365 data to Airia agents, covering mail, calendar, contacts, files, OneNote, tasks, Teams, and more.

Microsoft Graph shows up as two separate servers in the Airia catalogue: Microsoft Graph and Microsoft Graph (BYO). They’re not the same connection with two names. Each is added to a Gateway or Deployment on its own, and which one you pick changes both how setup works and which tools an agent can actually use. Read the comparison below before adding either one.

Two Ways to Connect

	Microsoft Graph	Microsoft Graph (BYO)
Azure app registration	Owned and managed by Airia	Registered and owned by you, in your own Microsoft Entra ID tenant
Setup	Click Connect and sign in	Register an app in Entra ID, then enter your Client ID, Client Secret, and Tenant in Airia
Permissions	A fixed set of permissions covering the most common scenarios	Fully customizable. You choose exactly which permissions to grant
Tool coverage	Most tools, listed below	Every tool, including Teams chat, meeting transcripts, room booking, and SharePoint site listing
Sign-in restriction	Any Microsoft account	Can be restricted to only your organization’s accounts
Best for	Getting started quickly with common scenarios	Full control over permissions, or unlocking every tool

If you’re not sure which to pick, start with Microsoft Graph. You can add Microsoft Graph (BYO) later, or instead, if you run into a tool that needs a permission the quick connect option doesn’t grant, each tool’s required permission is called out in the tool reference below.

What It Can Do

Category	Capability
Mail	Search, read, send, reply to, forward, and organize Outlook mail, including drafts, folders, and inbox rules.
Calendar	Read and create events, check free/busy time, find meeting times, and respond to invitations.
Contacts	Read, create, update, delete, and bulk manage contacts.
Files (OneDrive)	Browse, search, upload, download, and share files and folders.
SharePoint	Browse SharePoint sites, document libraries, and files.
Excel	Read and update worksheets, ranges, and tables in workbooks stored in OneDrive or SharePoint.
OneNote	Read notebooks, sections, and pages, and create new pages and sections.
Tasks (To Do)	Read and manage To Do lists and tasks.
Teams and Chat	Read channels and chats, send channel and chat messages, and read meeting transcripts.
People and Directory	Look up colleagues, search the organization directory, and explore reporting structure.
Rooms and Places	Look up meeting rooms and book them as calendar resources.
Identity and Presence	Read the signed-in user’s profile and availability status.

Connecting

Microsoft Graph (Quick Connect)

This is the server that uses Airia’s own Microsoft app registration, so there’s no Azure setup on your end.

Add Microsoft Graph

Find Microsoft Graph in the server catalogue when building an MCP Deployment or MCP Gateway, or add it from Server Management.

Click Connect and sign in with your Microsoft account when prompted. You’ll be asked to authorize the permissions listed under Quick Connect permissions below.

A few of the requested permissions, like reading SharePoint sites, require a Microsoft 365 administrator to approve them for the whole organization before any individual can authorize them. If sign in fails with an error mentioning “need admin approval,” ask your admin to consent on your organization’s behalf, or use Microsoft Graph (BYO) instead.

Quick Connect is always a personal connection, tied to the Microsoft account you sign in with. See Tenant vs. Personal Level App Credentials for what that means for your organization.

Microsoft Graph (BYO)

This is the server that uses your own Azure app registration. You decide exactly which permissions to grant. Pick this one if you want to restrict sign in to your own organization, limit which Microsoft 365 data agents can touch, or unlock tools that Quick Connect doesn’t cover.

Go to Azure Entra ID app registrations and click New registration.

Choose account types and set the redirect URI

Give the app a name and choose which accounts can sign in (see Account Types below, single tenant is recommended for most organizations). Under Redirect URI, select Web and enter:

https://auth.airia.ai/OAuth/callback

Then click Register.

Add API permissions

Go to API permissions > Add a permission > Microsoft Graph > Delegated permissions and add the permissions you need. See Tools and Required Permissions below to decide which ones, or use the full coverage list to unlock every tool at once.

Grant admin consent

Still on the API permissions page, click Grant admin consent for [your organization]. This is required for any permission ending in .All, or the connection will fail for anyone who isn’t an admin.

Create a client secret

Go to Certificates & secrets > New client secret and copy the Value immediately. Azure only shows it once.

Copy your IDs

From the app’s Overview page, copy the Application (client) ID and, if you chose single tenant, the Directory (tenant) ID.

Add it to Airia

Add Microsoft Graph (BYO) as a server on a Gateway or Deployment, then enter your Client ID, Client Secret, and Tenant value. Complete the sign in flow to finish connecting.

Because BYO uses an app registration you control, the Client ID and Client Secret can be shared at the Tenant level so this setup only happens once for your organization. Each person who connects still signs in with their own Microsoft account. See Tenant vs. Personal Level App Credentials for more on how that works.

Account Types

Azure offers four options when you register the app, and each one expects a different Tenant value in Airia:

Account type	Tenant value in Airia
Accounts in this organizational directory only (single tenant)	Your Directory (tenant) ID
Accounts in any organizational directory (multitenant)	`organizations`
Accounts in any organizational directory and personal Microsoft accounts	`common`
Personal Microsoft accounts only	`consumers`

Single tenant is recommended if you want to restrict sign in to people in your own organization.

Tools and Required Permissions

Every tool below needs a specific Microsoft Graph permission before it will work. Tool names are what an agent actually calls, the same names you’d see in an agent’s tool call log. The Works with column tells you whether the required permission is already included in Quick Connect’s fixed set, or whether you need Microsoft Graph (BYO) with that permission added.

Most tools accept more than one permission, listed with or. Any one of them is enough, and broader permissions (ending in .All or .Shared) work just as well as the narrower one. A few tools, called out with and, need every listed permission granted at the same time. If a permission ends in .All, granting it through Bring Your Own also requires the admin consent step covered above.

Quick Connect Permissions

Quick Connect always requests this fixed set of permissions:

Calendars.Read Calendars.ReadWrite Channel.ReadBasic.All ChannelMessage.Send Contacts.Read Contacts.ReadWrite email Files.Read Files.ReadWrite Mail.Read Mail.ReadWrite Mail.Send Notes.Read Notes.ReadWrite People.Read Presence.Read Tasks.Read Tasks.ReadWrite User.Read offline_access openid

Granting Every Permission

If you want Microsoft Graph (BYO) to unlock every tool listed above, add all of the following delegated permissions to your app registration, then grant admin consent:

openid offline_access Calendars.Read Calendars.ReadWrite Channel.ReadBasic.All ChannelMessage.Send Chat.Read Chat.ReadWrite Contacts.Read Contacts.ReadWrite Files.Read Files.ReadWrite Files.Read.All Mail.Read Mail.ReadWrite Mail.Send MailboxSettings.ReadWrite Notes.Create Notes.Read OnlineMeetings.Read People.Read Place.Read.All Presence.Read Sites.Read.All Tasks.Read Tasks.ReadWrite Tasks.ReadWrite.Shared Tasks.ReadWrite.All Team.ReadBasic.All User.Read

Always include openid and offline_access. Without offline_access, Airia can’t refresh the connection once the access token expires (about an hour), and users will have to reconnect constantly.

Extending Beyond Your Own Data

By default, every tool acts on the signed-in user’s own mailbox, calendar, files, and so on. Several tools accept a parameter to act on another user’s data instead, for delegate, shared mailbox, or admin scenarios. That only works if you grant the broader version of the permission on your Bring Your Own app:

Area	Broader permission
Mail	`Mail.Read.All`, `Mail.ReadWrite.All`, `Mail.Read.Shared`, `Mail.ReadWrite.Shared`
Calendar	`Calendars.Read.All`, `Calendars.ReadWrite.All`, `Calendars.Read.Shared`, `Calendars.ReadWrite.Shared`
Contacts	`Contacts.Read.All`, `Contacts.ReadWrite.All`, `Contacts.Read.Shared`, `Contacts.ReadWrite.Shared`
Files	`Files.ReadWrite.All`
OneNote	`Notes.ReadWrite`, `Notes.Read.All`, `Notes.ReadWrite.All`
Identity	`User.Read.All`, `User.ReadBasic.All`, `User.ReadWrite`, `User.ReadWrite.All`, `Presence.Read.All`
People	`People.Read.All`
Teams and chat	`ChannelMessage.Read.All`, `ChannelMessage.ReadWrite`, `Chat.Read.All`, `Chat.ReadBasic`, `Chat.Create`, `OnlineMeetings.ReadWrite`, `OnlineMeetingTranscript.Read.All`

Any permission ending in .All and many .Shared variants require tenant admin consent before individual users can grant them. Without it, the OAuth flow surfaces AADSTS65001 "need admin approval". Two ways to grant admin consent:

From the app’s API permissions page, click Grant admin consent for [tenant] (one-time, organization-wide).

Have a tenant admin navigate to this URL after replacing the placeholder values:

https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenant}/adminconsent?client_id={your-client-id}

Troubleshooting

A whole category of tools is missing

Some categories, like Teams chat, meeting transcripts, and room booking, aren’t included in Quick Connect’s fixed permission set. Check the tool reference above. If a tool is marked BYO only, switch to Microsoft Graph (BYO) and add the listed permission.

The connection stops working after about an hour

This happens when offline_access wasn’t included in the granted permissions, so Airia has no way to refresh the session. For BYO, add offline_access to your app’s permissions, grant consent again, and reconnect.

A specific action fails, like sending mail or reading files

The signed in account is missing the underlying permission for that action. Check the tool reference above for the exact permission the tool needs. For BYO, add it to your app registration, grant admin consent if it’s a .All or .Shared permission, and have users reconnect.
