What is Microsoft MCP Server for Enterprise?

This is an enterprise-level AI assistant server designed specifically for IT administrators and developers. It allows you to use natural language (such as 'View all administrator accounts in our company') to query and manage data in Microsoft Entra (formerly Azure AD) without writing complex API code or PowerShell commands. The server automatically converts your natural language requests into accurate Microsoft Graph API calls.

How to use Microsoft MCP Server for Enterprise?

You only need to install and configure this MCP server in a supported client (such as the Copilot Chat extension for Visual Studio Code), and then you can ask questions about your tenant just as you would have a conversation with a colleague. The server handles authentication, permission checks, and API calls and returns the results in an easy-to-understand manner.

Use Cases

Suitable for IT administrators, security analysts, and developers who need to quickly query enterprise identity and directory information. Particularly useful for daily IT operations tasks such as security checks, permission audits, user management, device monitoring, and compliance reporting.

Key Features

Natural Language to API Conversion

Use advanced AI technologies (RAG and few-shot prompting) to convert your natural language questions into accurate Microsoft Graph API queries without learning complex API syntax.

Enterprise Data Access

Securely access enterprise data such as users, groups, applications, and devices in Microsoft Entra, supporting key scenarios such as identity management, security posture, and access governance.

Permission Control

Based on the delegated permission model, strictly adhere to user roles and client permission scopes to ensure the security and compliance of data access.

Simplified Toolset

Achieve the functionality of hundreds of API operations through only 3 core tools (query suggestions, data retrieval, and property listing), greatly simplifying the configuration and usage complexity.

Complete Audit Trail

All operations are recorded through a unified application ID, and all MCP server operations can be easily audited in the Microsoft Graph activity log.

Advantages

Remotely hosted service: Deployed and maintained by Microsoft, with high reliability. Deployed in the same region as Microsoft Graph to ensure optimal performance.

Full control for IT administrators: Clients need to be explicitly granted specific permissions to access tenant data.

Simplified architecture: Only need to manage 3 tools instead of hundreds of independent API endpoints.

High-quality query generation: Trained based on more than 500 real scenarios to generate accurate API queries.

No additional licenses required: Only existing Microsoft Entra and Microsoft Graph API licenses are needed.

Fully auditable: All operations have clear log records.

Limitations

Currently only supports read-only operations. Write functionality will be added in future versions.

Only supports public cloud (global services). Support for sovereign clouds is planned.

Limited support for ChatGPT and Claude, requiring specific plans or having known issues.

Does not support dynamic client registration (DCR).

Subject to Microsoft Graph rate limits (100 requests per minute per user).

In the public preview phase, features and stability may change.

How to Get Started

Environment Preparation

Ensure that your PowerShell environment is clean to avoid module conflicts. If the Microsoft.Graph module is already installed, it is recommended to uninstall it first.

Connect to Microsoft Entra

Connect to your tenant using an administrator account and grant the necessary application permissions.

Install the MCP Server

Click the installation link or manually configure the MCP server connection in VS Code.

Start Using

Open Copilot Chat, log in with your administrator account, and then start asking questions about your tenant.

Usage Examples

Security Check: Identify High-Risk Accounts

As a security administrator, you need to quickly identify administrator accounts with excessive permissions or those that have not been used for a long time.

Compliance Audit: Review Application Permissions

To meet compliance requirements, you need to review the permission settings of all applications and identify potential security risks.

Operations Management: Monitor Device Status

IT administrators need to understand the management status and compliance of company devices.

Cost Optimization: Analyze License Usage

The finance team needs to analyze license usage and identify underutilized licenses to optimize costs.

✨ Features

Tools

This MCP Server is atypical: instead of exposing a separate tool per Microsoft Graph operation, it applies Retrieval - Augmented Generation (RAG) and few - shot prompting to generate complete Microsoft Graph queries.
It exposes only three tools to implement a reliable and grounded workflow:

microsoft_graph_suggest_queries: Finds relevant Microsoft Graph API calls based on user intent.
microsoft_graph_get: Executes read - only Microsoft Graph API calls, respecting User roles and MCP Client scopes.
microsoft_graph_list_properties: Retrieves properties of specific Microsoft Graph entities to help the AI model.

Current scope and capabilities

For Public Preview, our focus is to support read - only enterprise IT scenarios focused on Microsoft Entra identity and directory operations (user, group, application, device management, and administrative actions).

In particular, the MCP Server can handle queries related to:

Security posture: authentication methods/strengths, Conditional Access, Security Defaults.
Privileged access: Who has which directory roles, how assigned (direct vs group), and PIM status.
Application risk: Which Apps / Service Principals exist, who owns them, what permissions/SSO they use, and which are ownerless or external.
Access governance: Who has access to what (users, groups, packages); review decisions, automate joiner/mover/leaver.
Device readiness: Managed/compliant status, join state, OS/version distribution, and stale or inactive devices.
Provenance and investigation: End - to - end telemetry (sign - in, audit, provisioning, network), health alerts, and SLA/availability.
Optimize spending & hygiene: License counts/usage, unused or stale apps/groups, domain configuration and contacts.

Supported Clients

The Microsoft MCP Server for Enterprise is designed to work with any MCP - compatible client supporting the latest standard.

⚠️ Important Note

Dynamic Client Registration (DCR) is not supported, but we are working to support OAuth Client ID Metadata Documents (CIMD) in a future release.

ChatGPT is supported only with custom client Id, that is currently available only on the Pro Plan.

Claude has a bug that prevents authentication with Entra resources, the team is aware and currently working on a fix. It also requires a custom client Id, available only on the Teams Plan.

We recommend using it with Visual Studio Code and the Copilot Chat extension.

Authorization and permissions

The MCP Server for Enterprise uses Microsoft Graph API to access data in your Microsoft Entra tenant using delegated permissions only, and provides a reduced set of permissions exposed by Microsoft Graph.
Use the following cmdlet to list the permissions provided by the MCP Server for Enterprise:

(Get-EntraBetaServicePrincipal -Property "PublishedPermissionScopes" -Filter "AppId eq 'e8c77dc2-69b3-43f4-bc51-3213c9d915b4'").PublishedPermissionScopes | Where-Object { $_.IsEnabled -eq $true -and $_.AdditionalProperties["isPrivate"] -ne $true } | Select-Object Value, AdminConsentDisplayName | Sort-Object

If you'd like to use your own Registered Application, use the following cmdlets to manage scopes granted to your MCP Client Application:

Grant-EntraBetaMCPServerPermission -ApplicationId "<MCP_Client_Application_Id>" -Scopes "<Scope1>", "<Scope2>", "<...>"
Revoke-EntraBetaMCPServerPermission -ApplicationId "<MCP_Client_Application_Id>" -Scopes "<Scope1>", "<Scope2>", "<...>"
