Datasets, regions, and sinks supported by Microsoft Graph Data Connect
Raksts
Microsoft Graph Data Connect supports a variety of datasets, data regions, and storage locations in Microsoft Azure. This article describes the supported datasets and how to access the dataset schemas, the Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Azure regions that are supported, and the storage locations that Microsoft Graph Data Connect utilizes through Azure Synapse or Azure Data Factory.
Datasets
Microsoft Graph Data Connect currently supports the following datasets. To view the schemas for each dataset, create a new dataset in Azure Synapse or Azure Data Factory and go to the Schema tab.

OutlookContactActivity_v0
Provides employees' activity with their contacts in Microsoft Outlook.
Contains metrics according to the query authored by the user in Viva Insights.
Varies per report.
Requires Viva Insights license.
Note:{Viva_Insights_Query_Name} represents a placeholder for the Viva Insights query name that, when combined with VivaInsightsDataset_Report_v1_, forms the dataset name.
Regions
Microsoft Graph Data Connect supports extracting data from a variety of Microsoft 365 regions. To successfully move data from the Microsoft 365 data center into your Microsoft Azure storage, the Azure Synapse or Azure Data Factory instance and the Azure storage location must both map to a supported region for the location of the Microsoft 365 data.
The following table indicates which Microsoft 365 regions are supported and the corresponding Azure regions required for data movement.

Sinks
Sinks are the output location that Azure Synapse or Azure Data Factory uses to place data in Azure storage. Microsoft Graph Data Connect supports the following sink storage types:
Service Principal authentication is the only supported authentication mechanism for all sink types in a copy activity with Microsoft 365 as the source.
When using Azure Storage Blob as the sink, you must ensure that your application has Storage Blob Data Contributor access to the Azure Storage Blob location.
For copy activity, the output files are formatted as JSON. This format is fixed and modifying the format isn't supported. However, you can use Azure Synapse or Azure Data Factory to copy the result of a Microsoft Graph Data Connect pipeline into another storage mechanism (such as Azure SQL Database).
