Checkmk Plugin: Microsoft 365 Special Agent

Plugin Information

The Microsoft 365 Special Agent can be integrated into Checkmk 2.3 or newer.

You can download the .mkp file from releases in this repository to upload it directly to your Checkmk site.

The Plugin provides monitoring of these components:

  • Microsoft 365 Licenses
  • Microsoft 365 Service Health

Prerequisites

This Special Agent uses the Microsoft Graph API to collect the monitoring data. To access the API, you need a Microsoft Entra Tenant and a Microsoft Entra App Registration with a secret.

You need at least these API application permissions for your App Registration:

  • Organization.Read.All
  • ServiceHealth.Read.All

For a more granular option, the required API permissions per check are listed in the next sections.

To implement the check, you need to configure the Microsoft 365 Special Agent in Checkmk. You will need the Microsoft Entra Tenant ID, the Microsoft Entra App Registration ID and Secret. When you configure the Special Agent, you have the option to select only the services that you want to monitor. You do not have to implement all the checks, but at least one of them.

Microsoft 365 Licenses
