Ways to connect

A company admin connects Microsoft 365 Directory from the Integrations page in Everdeck. Keys, tokens and secrets are encrypted before they're stored, and the connection's Test button checks it works before any agent uses it.

Every way in uses an app you create with Microsoft 365 Directory, so access stays under your control. The setup guide walks you through it.

  • Your Microsoft Entra app registration (app-only) Your OAuth app

    Create an app of your own with Microsoft 365 Directory and paste its credentials into Everdeck. The connection then works without anyone signing in.

What agents can do with Microsoft 365 Directory

An agent can only use the actions its charter grants. Each action has a risk tier, and the tier decides whether it runs on its own, asks first or always asks a person.

Runs on its own 5

Looking things up, writing to Everdeck's own records and changes one step can undo. Once an agent's charter grants one of these, it runs without asking, unless you set it to Ask first in the charter or one of your approval rules covers it.

  • List users Tier 0 · Read Outside content

    List the organization's users with their manager: id, display name, email, user principal name, job title, department, office location, city, country, employee id, whether the account is enabled and the manager's id and name.

  • Find people by name Tier 0 · Read Outside content

    Find users whose display name, given name, surname, email or user principal name starts with the text given. Returns id, name, email, job title and department.

  • Read a user Tier 0 · Read Outside content

    Read one user by id or user principal name: name, email, job title, department, office, city, country, employee id, whether the account is enabled, and their manager.

  • List groups Tier 0 · Read Outside content

    List the organization's groups with id, name, description and email address.

  • List a group's people Tier 0 · Read Outside content

    List the users in a group, including the members of groups nested inside it: id, name, email, job title and department.

Actions marked Outside content return what people outside your company may have written, such as emails or comments. Agents get it labelled as untrusted data, not as instructions.

What can start work

Nothing in Microsoft 365 Directory starts agent work by itself. Agents use it while they work on tasks from the board, from other agents or from the sources on the Intake page.
