For example, given the proper authorization, whether only Microsoft 365 apps (such as Word and Excel) can access users' Microsoft 365 data, or whether other Microsoft apps (such as Windows) can access the data as well. By default, all users in an organization can access in a Microsoft app any Microsoft 365 data that the user has been authorized to access.
Following the Zero Trust cybersecurity model, Microsoft partners can use granular delegated admin privileges (GDAP) to carry out administrative tasks with least-privileged access to their customer tenants, to avoid potential security exposures. Instead of requesting Global Administrator role as in the past, partners request specific roles for customer tenant administration for a definite amount of time, and their customers must explicitly grant the least-privileged access to them.

You can search for specific tokens in the displayName and description properties of these entities, and use OData cast to trim directoryObject results to certain derived types. See more details in Build advanced queries in Microsoft Graph with $count, $filter, $search, and $orderby.
As part of the identity protection API, use the riskEventType property to get the type of risk detected, or get the type of risk in a user's history. Do not use the riskType property as it has been deprecated.

The unifiedRoleAssignmentMultiple resource supports defining a single role over an array of scopes, and assigning the role to multiple principals (such as users).
Access specific types of policies for an organization using the /policies URL segment and specifying the policy type. For example, an organization can enforce a policy to automatically sign a user out from a web session after a period of inactivity; see CRUD operations for instances of activityBasedTimeoutPolicy. This is a breaking change to make it easier to discover all policies, by grouping all typed policies under the /policies segment. Access other typed policies in a similar approach: claimsMappingPolicy, homeRealmDiscoveryPolicy, tokenLifetimePolicy, and tokenIssuancePolicy.

Media quality includes open-type data for audio, video, and screen-sharing.

Files

Remote items that are shared with a user, added to the user's OneDrive, or returned as a search result can contain metadata for an image or video.
Follow a driveItem for convenient access, or for faciliating actions such as move, copy, and save-as. Use unfollow to stop following the drive item.

Identity and access

Use the AuditLog.Read.All permission to list the sign-in activity of a user.
Use the PrivilegedAccess.Read.AzureResources application-level permission for Privileged Identity Management (PIM) of Azure resources, to set up just-in-time access workflow for Azure infrastructure roles at a management group, subscription, resource group, or resource level.
Use the identitySecurityDefaultsEnforcementPolicy entity to get or update pre-configured default security settings that protect organizations against common attacks.
Use an identity segment when calling the conditional access APIs. For example, to get a conditional access policy: GET https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/identity/conditionalAccess/policies/{id}.
Use the authenticationRequirement property to get the highest level of authentication that is needed through all the sign-in steps in order for sign-in to succeed.
Use pagination when listing provisioning events that occurred in your tenant.

Search

To add data in a file to search results, index the data simply as an externalItem. The externalFile type has been deprecated.
Update an item in the index, by specifically updating the plain-text representation of the item (represented by the content property), or the properties bag of the item (represented by the properties property). Updating any property in the properties bag overwrites the entire properties bag, so make sure to explicitly include all the properties of the item in the update.
Check for HTTP 429 and the Retry-After response header after calling the create, update, or delete operation of externalItem. Backing off requests using the Retry-After delay is the fastest way to recover from throttling.

Teamwork

Use the ChannelMessage.Read.All application-level permission to read chatMessage instances in channels without a signed-in user.

Universal Print

Debut of the Universal Print API which allows users to print on the web or from an app. The API lets IT administrators manage user and group access to printers in the Microsoft 365 cloud, remote printer sharing to maintain availability, monitor printer status, and report on archived print jobs and usage.

Groups

Use the assignLicense method to assign licences for products, such as Microsoft 365 or Enterprise Mobility + Security, to a group. Since Azure AD ensures licences are assigned to members of the group, members joining or leaving a group no longer requires licence management at the individual level.

Identity and access

Set requestor, approval, and review settings when creating an access package assignment policy.
Access specific types of policies for an organization using the /policies URL segment and specifying the policy type. For example, an organization can enforce a policy to automatically sign a user out from a web session after a period of inactivity; see CRUD operations for instances of activityBasedTimeoutPolicy. This is a breaking change to make it easier to discover all policies, by grouping all typed policies under the /policies segment. Access other typed policies in a similar approach: claimsMappingPolicy, homeRealmDiscoveryPolicy, tokenLifetimePolicy, and tokenIssuancePolicy.

- For each calendar, you can now manage the permissions of each user with whom the calendar is shared.
- For each mailbox, you can now specify whether a delegate, mailbox owner, or both receive meeting messages and meeting responses.
Additional online meeting support:
- For each calendar, specify the allowed and the default online meeting providers.
- Create or update an event to be available online, and provide details for attendees to join the meeting online.

Use target policy endpoints on user notifications to specifically target notifications for the Windows, iOS, Android, or WebPush platform.
Specify a fall back policy on notifications for iOS endpoints, to send high-priority raw notifications that might not be delivered to devices otherwise due to platform specific restrictions, such as battery saver mode.
