Requirements

This page lists the SharePoint Alerts assessment specific requirements and options.

Permission requirements

When using the SharePoint Alerts module of the Microsoft 365 Assessment tool you do need to use a configured Entra application (learn more here). The Microsoft 365 Assessment tool aims to be able to perform the SharePoint Alerts assessment using minimal permissions, as listed below.

Authentication	Minimal
Application	Graph: Sites.Read.All SharePoint: Sites.FullControl.All
Delegated	Graph: Sites.Read.All, User.Read SharePoint: AllSites.FullControl

Important

It's essential you grant the FullControl SharePoint permission as listed above, without this permission scope the Alerts module will not work.

Command line arguments for starting an assessment

There are no specific command line arguments when starting the SharePoint Alerts assessment.

Note

To learn more about starting an assessment checkout the Microsoft 365 Assessment tool Start documentation.
