EntraID

You deploy and run the EntraID MCP Server to access Microsoft Graph data through a modular, resource‑oriented FastMCP interface. It exposes resources like users, groups, applications, service principals, sign‑in logs, MFA status, and more, through a centralized Graph client with secure authentication and practical tooling for permissions, auditing, and password management.

How to use

You interact with the MCP server through an MCP client. The server provides a set of resources and tool functions you can call to query data, manage entities, and perform common administration tasks. You can search and retrieve users, manage groups and memberships, handle applications and service principals, fetch sign‑in logs, verify MFA status, reset passwords, and explore Graph permissions to follow least‑privilege practices. Use the MCP client to invoke the exposed tools and inspect results and progress through the MCP context for consistent error handling and logging.

How to install

Prerequisites: make sure you have Python installed in your environment. You will also need access to an Azure AD tenant with a registered application (client ID/secret) for Microsoft Graph authentication.

Step 1: Prepare your environment variables and credentials. Create a file with these values set for your tenant and app registration:

TENANT_ID=your-tenant-id
CLIENT_ID=your-client-id
CLIENT_SECRET=your-client-secret

Run the MCP server using the Cursor startup config

You can start the MCP server locally using Cursor’s startup configuration. This runs the server with the required modules and the path to your server entry file.
