What’s new

Outlook calendar groups

The new outlook calendargroup list command retrieves calendar groups for a user. This is useful for automation scenarios where you need to enumerate calendar groups before working with individual calendars, or when auditing mailbox configurations.

To list all calendar groups for the signed-in user, run:

m365 outlook calendargroup list

To retrieve calendar groups for a specific user by their email, run:

m365 outlook calendargroup list --userName "john.doe@contoso.com"

SharePoint agents

The new spo agent add command lets you create a SharePoint agent directly from the command line. SharePoint agents are AI-powered assistants grounded in your SharePoint content. You can define the agent’s name, instructions, welcome message, and the content sources it should use—all without leaving your terminal.

To add a SharePoint agent with site and library sources, run:

m365 spo agent add --webUrl https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/projectSite --name "Project Assistant" --agentInstructions "You are a helpful assistant for project management tasks. Be professional and concise." --welcomeMessage "Hello! I'm here to help you with project management tasks." --sourceUrls "https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/projectSite,https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/projectSite/Shared Documents/Forms/AllItems.aspx" --description "A helpful agent for project management assistance"

For additional options and response details, visit the command documentation.

SharePoint tenant site information

The new spo tenant site get command retrieves detailed tenant-level information for a specific site collection. This is helpful for admins who need to inspect site properties, verify configurations, or feed site metadata into governance reports.

To retrieve info about a site using its URL, run:

m365 spo tenant site get --url "https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/Marketing"

For additional options and response details, visit the command documentation.

SharePoint site access request settings

The new spo site accessrequest setting set command allows you to configure access request settings for a specific site collection. You can disable access requests, route them to the site owner group, or send them to a specific email address—all with an optional custom message.

To disable access requests for a specific site, run:

m365 spo site accessrequest setting set --siteUrl https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/Management --disabled

To send access requests to a specific email address with a custom message, run:

m365 spo site accessrequest setting set --siteUrl https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/Management --email john.doe@contoso.com --message "Motivate why you need access."

For additional options and response details, visit the command documentation.

Viva Engage role member removal

The new viva engage role member remove command removes a user from a Viva Engage role. This is useful for managing role-based access in Viva Engage, for example when offboarding an admin or rotating responsibilities.

To revoke a user from a Viva Engage role by name, run:

m365 viva engage role member remove --userName john.doe@contoso.com --roleName 'Verified Admin'

What’s changed

Enhanced spo site add with Brand Center site support

The spo site add command now supports creating a Brand Center site. By specifying --type BrandCenter, you can provision a dedicated branding hub for your organization directly from the command line.

To create a brand center site, run:

m365 spo site add --type BrandCenter --url https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/brandcenter --title Branding

For additional options and response details, visit the command documentation.

Enhanced spo list set with extra versioning settings

The spo list set command has been extended with additional versioning options. You can now configure versionAutoExpireTrim to enable automatic version trimming, and versionExpireAfterDays to set a version retention period. These options give admins finer-grained control over version storage on document libraries and lists.

To enable automatic version trimming on a list, run:

m365 spo list set --webUrl https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/project-x --id 3EA5A977-315E-4E25-8B0F-E4F949BF6B8F --versionAutoExpireTrim true
