The mailbox flag that controls whether messages sent by a delegate get copied to the Sent Items of the original mailbox is not settable via Graph. We need to execute a PowerShell script to do this.

Set-Mailbox -Identity $mailbox -MessageCopyForSentAsEnabled $true 

Our app's onboarding process, which requires setting this flag for a shared mailbox, would be greatly simplified if this could be done via the web, instead of having to provide a script and walk the customer through its manual execution.

May I ask you why do you need to " walk the customer through its manual execution"? It a trivial task for the administrator.

Maybe they have a lot of customers, and some of them are not familiar with PowerShell.

That's part of it for sure. But the real goal is to reduce onboarding barriers. We want a purely Graph-based onboarding experience for our customers. Victor is correct that for someone familiar with PowerShell, it's not a big deal. But it's still slows down the process because it's no longer just point and click.
