Description

This dashboard visualizes data produced by your organization’s M365 tenant so you can manage licenses, usage, capacity, and more. This dashboard will allow you to monitor key metrics for Microsoft 365 SharePoint, Exchange Online, and Teams so you can be proactive in assigning storage.

The dashboard connects to the Microsoft Graph API, which offers a broad set of functionalities for working with Azure. Microsoft 365 sits on top of Azure and can be managed via Graph API, too. The reports section of Graph API exposes usage insights of your M365 tenant and can be easily consumed and nicely presented.
