Why graph API is not a good option

• Incomprehensible results: The response returned by the graph explorer will be in JSON format which is difficult to comprehend by the end user.
• Difficulty in handling bulk results: When the result spans multiple pages, the graph explorer returns links to those pages instead of displaying all the records.
• Non-user friendly: User needs a third-party tool to view the response of the graph explorer in graphical or tabular format.
• Need of expertise: In-depth coding knowledge is required to customize the requests for specific needs.

Get Microsoft 365 group reports using M365 Manager Plus

Why juggle multiple scripts to know about a single group? M365 Manager Plus provides more than 700 pre-defined reports on Exchange Online, Azure AD, MS Teams, Yammer, and other Microsoft 365 services which are way easier to generate and customize than the results returned by the graph explorer.

It has a dedicated set of reports to know all about the groups in your organization. And the best part is, you need not write even a single line of code. All the required details are presented to you in a detailed tabular format accompanied with a graphical view of the report.
