Add support for Exchange Online

[mhincapie]

Hello,

I am new here and just found this great project to help me administer M365. I searched through the source files and issues and could not see why Exchange is not supported with this CLI. I was wondering if you could tell me. Is this related to the current support for Exchange Online in Microsoft Graph API, or is there a need to contribute to this service?

Thank you in advance for your response.

Hi @mhincapie

We have a few commands related to exchange (named outlook in our case) but I agree that these are limited. We depend of course on what Graph supports, however if Graph doesn't support something, we can use other APIs as well. For these APIs we should do some research tho.
But the main reason is probably because we are not getting feedback that we should support more outlook commands. Are there any commands that seems useful to you? We can certainly have a look at them.

or is there a need to contribute to this service?

Contributing yourself is no requirement.

Hi Milan,

I'd really love to contribute for a few functionalities. Here's the list in my mind:

• Get DL's of a user
• List Mail Flow Rules
• Create mail flow rules
• Unused mailboxes

Would it make sense?

Thanks.

Hi @murati thanks for the feedback, could you create an issue in our backlog so we don't lose track of it?

For every command you need, you can create an issue with the needed information and we'll have a look if we can support it.

Unused mailboxes

I think this is more a sample script instead of a new command, but we accept sample scripts as well.

Hi @milanholemans,

I created the issue. I have already sample PS script for this and further samples. It would be great if we support EXO modules.
