Overview
An API, short for Application Programming Interface, is a collection of definitions and protocols designed for constructing and incorporating application software seamlessly. By leveraging the API, you can generate content while adhering to the predefined rules and configurations outlined in the Templates and Policies.
The exposure of REST APIs within EasyLife 365 Collaboration opens the door for users to craft integrations tailored to their applications and workflows. The officially supported endpoints provide functional capabilities, enabling users to:
User operations
- Create Group/Team: Generate a Microsoft 365 Group or Microsoft Team.
- Invite Guest: Extend invitations to Guest Accounts.
- Create SharePoint Team or Communication site: Establish SharePoint Team or Communication sites.
Admin operations
- Update Fields: Modify dropdown values associated with your metadata fields.
- Manage Groups: Manage Group Templates and Policies.
- Manage Guests: Manage Guest Templates, Policies, and Owners.
- Manage SharePoint site: Manage SharePoint Site Templates and Policies.
The admin operations accept application permissions as well as delegated ones, so they can be driven by an unattended integration such as a scheduled script or a function app. The user operations are delegated-only — they always act on behalf of a signed-in user. See Create Application Registration for both setups.
