We’re excited to share that we have released a new learning path on Microsoft Learn, <\/span>Microsoft Graph Fundamentals<\/span><\/b><\/a>,\u00a0which\u00a0is a multi-part series that teaches you\u00a0basic\u00a0concepts of Microsoft Graph. It will guide you with hands-on exercises on how to use Microsoft Graph API requests to start developing or\u00a0enhancing\u00a0your applications with Microsoft 365 data.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What is Microsoft Graph?<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n

Microsoft Graph<\/span><\/b>\u202fis the API for Microsoft 365. It is the culmination of most of the data you have in in\u202fMicrosoft 365, Windows 10, and Enterprise Mobility + Security, all readily available to be accessed and used in your application by consuming its unified programmability model.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Why use Microsoft Graph?<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n

Microsoft\u00a0Graph<\/span><\/b>\u00a0helps you take\u00a0advantage of a secured, unified API that can be used\u00a0to\u00a0connect\u00a0applications\u00a0to data located in various Microsoft 365 services to your application.\u00a0Developers can get started with Microsoft Graph quickly and access data across an organization without having to learn about how individual Microsoft 365 services work.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Security is a critical part of any organization<\/span>,<\/span>\u00a0and Microsoft Graph\u00a0helps\u00a0provide built-in security\u00a0<\/span>to control access to various services.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

So,<\/span><\/b>\u00a0what are you waiting\u00a0<\/span><\/b>for<\/span><\/b>?<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span>Go to\u00a0<\/span>aka.ms\/learn-graph<\/span><\/b><\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/b>and<\/span>\u00a0complete the learning path to understand the fundamentals of Microsoft Graph with lots of exercises to involve you in the learning process.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

About the\u00a0learning\u00a0path\u00a0<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n

There are three modules to take you on a journey to\u00a0<\/span>succe<\/span>ss<\/span>fully explore Microsoft Graph and learn how to use it in an application.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. With the first\u00a0<\/span>module,\u00a0<\/span>What<\/span><\/b>\u00a0is Microsoft\u00a0<\/span><\/b>Graph<\/span><\/b>?<\/span><\/b><\/a>\u00a0<\/span>you will be<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>introduce<\/span>d<\/span>\u00a0to Microsoft\u00a0<\/span>Graph<\/span>\u00a0and\u00a0<\/span>introductory\u00a0concepts<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. You will then get<\/span>\u00a0started\u00a0<\/span>on<\/span>\u00a0configuring a<\/span>\u00a0sample JavaScript application to\u00a0<\/span>connect to<\/span>\u00a0Microsoft\u00a0<\/span>365 with the<\/span>\u00a0second<\/span>\u00a0module<\/span>,<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Configure<\/span><\/b>\u00a0a JavaScript application to retrieve Microsoft 365 data using Microsoft Graph<\/span><\/b><\/a>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Finally<\/span>, you will be able to<\/span>\u00a0e<\/span>xtend\u00a0<\/span>the sample<\/span>\u00a0application to access a user\u2019s photo information from Microsoft 365<\/span>\u00a0with the<\/span>\u00a0third<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>module<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Access user photo information with Microsoft Graph<\/span><\/b>.<\/span><\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
