Microsoft 365

This app enables access to the Microsoft 365 platform directly in Eliona using the Microsoft Graph API.

Name of the delegated user (for delegated permissions)

This app connects rooms and other resources to Eliona and provides information about their booking status. However, the app’s main capability is the ability to use the entire Graph API directly in Eliona by using the authentication proxy functionality.

Installation

The Microsoft 365 app is installed via the App Store in Eliona.

Assets

The Microsoft 365 app automatically creates all necessary asset types and assets that are accessible via the configured endpoints. The following asset types are created:

• Room: A room in Azure AD.

• Equipment: Any piece of equipment that can be booked. Like a room, but generalized.

The following attributes are defined:

Attributes	Description	room	Equipment	Filterable
address	Physical address	x		x
nickname	Nickname	x		x
label	Label	x		x
geo_coordinates	Geo coordinates	x		x
phone	Phone number	x		x
email_address	Email address	x	x	x
booking_type	Booking type	x		x
building	Buildings	x		x
capacity	Capacity	x		x
floor_label	Floor label	x		x
floor_number	Floor number	x		x
is_wheel_chair_accessible	Wheelchair accessible	x		x
tags	Tags	x		x
display_device_name	Display device name	x		x
audio_device_name	Audio device name	x		x
video_device_name	Video device name	x		x
on_schedule	On schedule	x	x

Configuration

More information on configuring apps can be found ↗ here.

The Microsoft 365 app is configured by defining one or more authentication credentials. The following data is required for each configuration:

Attributes	Description
tenantId	Company ID or domain
clientId	ClientID / Azure AD application ID
clientSecret	An "app password" (for app permissions)
username	Name of the delegated user (for delegated permissions)
password	Delegated user password (for delegated permissions)
forEliona	Indicates whether the configuration should be used for asset creation
forProxy	Indicates whether the configuration should be used for the app frontend and the proxy API
enable	Flag to enable or disable fetching from this API
refreshInterval	Interval in seconds for collecting data from the API
requestTimeout	API query timeout in seconds
assetFilter	Filter for asset creation, see the app's README for more details
projectIDs	List of Eliona project IDs for which this device should collect data. For each project ID, all assets are automatically created in Eliona. The mapping to Eliona assets is stored as an asset mapping in the app.

The configuration must contain either the client secret for app permissions or the user credentials for delegated permissions. Configuration is done via a corresponding JSON structure. As an example, the following JSON structure can be used to define an endpoint for app permissions:

{
  "clientId": "adasf8676a-example-client-id-asfd2867130",
  "clientSecret": "8nx-8Kelionathebestwfmbsdiurnc987vcu",
  "tenantId": "tenant-id",
  "username": "",
  "password": "",
  "enable": true,
  "refreshInterval": 60,
  "requestTimeout": 120,
  "assetFilter": [],
  "projectIDs": [
    "10"
  ]
}

Endpoints can be created in Eliona with this structure under Apps > Kontakt.io > Settings . To do this, select the endpoint /configs with the POST method.

Required privileges

For the basic use case of meeting rooms and devices and their availability, the application needs the following application permissions:

• Place.Read.All

• User.Read.All

• Calendars.Read
