Details - O365 Authorization Tool

LET'S AUTHORIZE

 

Office 365 does not allow Administrator access to user OneDrive files and folders by default, Cloud Access Monitor requires these permissions in order to gain OneDrive file / folder visibility. The ManagedMethods team has developed a tool to automatically open these permissions in your environment. Below are instructions to use the Authorization tool.

 

NOTE: The tool must be run on an account within your TENANT domain. The tool will not work on an administrative account outside of the <YourCompany>.onmicrosoft.com domain.
