FAQ from Microsoft 365 MCP Server
What runtime and dependencies are required?
Node.js 20.x or higher and a global installation of CLI for Microsoft 365 (@pnp/cli-microsoft365) are required.
How does authentication work?
The MCP server does not handle authentication. You must first authenticate using m365 login in CLI for Microsoft 365; the server then reuses that authenticated context.
