Enable the OnePlan and Microsoft Teams Integration

What Permissions Are Granted to OnePlan?

When a Microsoft tenant administrator clicks Enable Permissions for Microsoft Teams, several Microsoft Graph permissions are granted to the OnePlan Enterprise Application within Microsoft Entra ID. These permissions allow the built-in Microsoft Teams integration to function properly.

The following Microsoft Graph permissions are granted:

• Read and write all groups – Allows OnePlan to access and manage Microsoft 365 groups associated with Teams.

• Read the names and descriptions of teams – Allows OnePlan to display and reference available Teams.

• View users’ basic profile – Allows OnePlan to identify users when interacting with Teams-related functionality.

• Maintain access to data you have given it access to – Allows the application to retain previously granted access without requiring users to re-authenticate frequently.

These permissions are granted in addition to the existing Windows Azure Directory permissions already provided to OnePlan, which include:

• Sign in and read user profile

• Read all users’ basic profiles

Together, these permissions enable the OnePlan Enterprise Application to securely interact with Microsoft Teams so users can access Teams functionality directly within OnePlan.
