Practical Graph: Find Large Mailbox Items with the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK
Server-side filtering is always best when PowerShell retrieves items from the server. In this article, we explore how to construct a server-side filter to find large mailbox items over a certain threshold. The answer lies in filtering against an old Outlook property. The Graph represents the property through the single value extended property resource. But how do you filter against such a thing? https://practical365.com/find-large-mailbox-items/How to Create SharePoint Sites with the Graph API
Microsoft released the beta version of the SharePoint Online create Site API for the Microsoft Graph in late November 2025. Since then, Microsoft has dropped one of the three site templates. Playing with the API, we’ve discovered that the API can certainly create sites but that the SharePoint Graph API misses a heap of features, like adding members to the new site. Oh well, one step forward… https://office365itpros.com/2026/01/19/create-site-api-spo/Some Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK Cmdlets Lose Body Parameters
A change made for some Directory Graph APIs has flowed through to the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK and affected how the associated cmdlets work, including the beta cmdlet to restore a deleted user account and while replacing the user principal name. Fortunately, the workaround is easy, but it is upsetting when something that worked suddenly doesn’t, even if it is a beta cmdlet. https://office365itpros.com/2026/01/16/restore-deleted-user-account-sdk/Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK V2.34 Makes WAM the Default
The Web Account Manager (WAM) authentication broker becomes the default method for handling interactive Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK connections from V2.34 onwards. The rapid release of a new version (V2.33 appeared 12 days beforehand) is usually a sign of a big problem, but in this case the reason is more likely to be a security vulnerability that’s just come to light. We’ll find out after the holidays. We've released V19.1 of the Automating Microsoft 365 with PowerShell eBook (the advantage of ePublishing) to keep track with developments. https://office365itpros.com/2025/12/23/web-account-manager-graph-sdk/Automating Microsoft 365 with PowerShell Second Edition

Resource not found while trying to access the available resource
I am attempting to automate CRUD operations on Microsoft Entra objects using the Microsoft Graph API. However, I am encountering a Resource not found error when accessing a resource programmatically, even though the same resource is accessible without issue when invoking the API endpoint via Postman.
Partner Intune reporting questions
I need some help for my global partner- SHI International. We have a monthly services modernization briefing with the SHI M365 practice team. They have a need around 1-2 Q&A deep-dive sessions where their team of M365 experts want to ask some in=depth technical and pre-sales related questions related to Intune Reporting Challenges and Customer Pain Points, Current Intune Reporting Limitations, Technical Barriers to Reporting, Permissions and Consent Model Confusion, Feedback on Documentation and User Experience. Appreciate any guidance on a PSA SME on this topic or a global black belt, that would be great. Appreciate if you can point me to the latest updated documentation on this topic. I reached out to several folks in the PSA team with no luck yet. Thanks!Effortless Time Tracking in Teams, Outlook and M365 Copilot
How do you stay in the flow of work when tasks move across Teams, Outlook and now M365 Copilot? Many of us already collaborate and manage our day in these Microsoft 365 tools, but logging time often feels like something separate that interrupts our focus. With https://www.klynke.com/ time tracking stays right where your work happens. It runs inside Teams, Outlook and M365 Copilot, creating one consistent and natural experience for logging hours without leaving your workflow. We shared more in our blog: https://www.klynke.com/post/log-time-in-teams-outlook-copilot, and were grateful that Microsoft featured our story in a Tech Community interview: Building Secure SaaS on Microsoft Cloud. A quick look under the hood Microsoft 365 SSO (Entra ID) – Employees sign in with their existing credentials Tenant-based storage and security – Data stays within your Microsoft 365 tenant, under IT control Native experience – Same workflow in Teams, Outlook and M365 Copilot Simple reporting – Export to Excel, Power BI or dashboards How do you currently manage time tracking in Microsoft 365? Would having it built directly into Teams, Outlook and M365 Copilot make a difference in your day? CTO at Klynke
Title: Expose SHA-256 or SHA-1 for Mail Attachments in Microsoft Graph
Problem Email attachments in Graph don’t include a content hash. To identify or match attachments, developers have to download the entire file first. That wastes bandwidth and time and increases exposure. OneDrive/SharePoint already return hashes, but mail does not, so experiences are inconsistent. Request Add a server-provided content hash to every mail attachment. Prefer SHA-256. If that’s not feasible initially, expose SHA-1 as a minimum to align with existing Drive item hashes. Benefits Faster and cheaper: avoid downloading large files just to tell if you already have them. Deduplication: detect repeated attachments across threads and mailboxes. Security operations: correlate attachments with threat intel by hash and triage suspicious emails without fetching payloads. eDiscovery and compliance: confidently match the same document across mail and files. Consistency: a predictable, uniform approach across Mail and OneDrive/SharePoint.
