entraid mcp server

This project provides a modular, resource-oriented FastMCP server for interacting with Microsoft Graph API. It is designed for extensibility, maintainability, and security, supporting advanced queries for users, sign-in logs, MFA status, and privileged users.

Features

• Modular Resource Structure:
• Each resource (users, sign-in logs, MFA, etc.) is implemented in its own module under src/msgraph_mcp_server/resources/.
• Easy to extend with new resources (e.g., groups, devices).
• Centralized Graph Client:
• Handles authentication and client initialization.
• Shared by all resource modules.
• Comprehensive User Operations:
• Search users by name/email.
• Get user by ID.
• List all privileged users (directory role members).
• Full Group Lifecycle & Membership Management:
• Create, read, update, and delete groups.
• Add/remove group members and owners.
• Search and list groups and group members.
• Application & Service Principal Management:
• List, create, update, and delete applications (app registrations).
• List, create, update, and delete service principals.
• View app role assignments and delegated permissions for both applications and service principals.
• Sign-in Log Operations:
• Query sign-in logs for a user for the last X days.
• MFA Operations:
• Get MFA status for a user.
• Get MFA status for all members of a group.
• Password Management:
• Reset user passwords directly with custom or auto-generated secure passwords.
• Option to require password change on next sign-in.
• Permissions Helper:
• Suggest appropriate Microsoft Graph permissions for common tasks.
• Search and explore available Graph permissions.
• Helps implement the principle of least privilege by recommending only necessary permissions.
• Error Handling & Logging:
• Consistent error handling and progress reporting via FastMCP context.
• Detailed logging for troubleshooting.
• Security:
• .env and secret files are excluded from version control.
• Uses Microsoft best practices for authentication.

Usage

1. Setup

• Clone the repo.
• Create a config/.env file with your Azure AD credentials:

  TENANT_ID=your-tenant-id
  CLIENT_ID=your-client-id
  CLIENT_SECRET=your-client-secret

• (Optional) Set up certificate-based auth if needed.

2. Testing & Development

You can test and develop your MCP server directly using the FastMCP CLI:

fastmcp dev  /path/to/src/msgraph_mcp_server/server.py 

This launches an interactive development environment with the MCP Inspector. For more information and advanced usage, see the FastMCP documentation.

Example Resource

• greeting://{name} — Returns a personalized greeting

Extending the Server

• Add new resource modules under resources/ (e.g., groups.py, devices.py).
• Register new tools in server.py using the FastMCP @mcp.tool() decorator.
• Use the shared GraphClient for all API calls.

Security & Best Practices

• Never commit secrets: .env and other sensitive files are gitignored.
• Use least privilege: Grant only the necessary Microsoft Graph permissions to your Azure AD app.
• Audit & monitor: Use the logging output for troubleshooting and monitoring.

Required Graph API Permissions

Note: Group.ReadWrite.All is required for group creation, update, deletion, and for adding/removing group members or owners. Group.Read.All and GroupMember.Read.All are sufficient for read-only group and membership queries.
