Microsoft Graph Toolkit – the easiest way to connect your app to Microsoft 365
If you want to connect your app to Microsoft 365, you need to take care of a few things. First, you need to ensure that users can sign in to your app with their Microsoft 365 account. Then, you need to get an access token to call Microsoft Graph – the API that exposes data and insights stored in Microsoft 365. Finally, you need to call Microsoft Graph and display the retrieved data. Microsoft Graph Toolkit abstracts all of this away. By using the toolkit components and authentication providers, you can easily connect to Microsoft 365 and focus on building apps that add value to your customers.
