Microsoft Graph Toolkit

UI Components and Authentication Providers for Microsoft Graph

Documentation

The Microsoft Graph Toolkit is a collection of reusable, framework-agnostic components and authentication providers for accessing and working with Microsoft Graph. The components are fully functional right of out of the box, with built in providers that authenticate with and fetch data from Microsoft Graph.

Preview packages

In addition to the @next preview packages, we also ship packages under several other preview tags with various features in progress:

Tag	Description
next	Next release - updated on each commit to main

To install these packages, use the tag as the version in your npm i command. Ex: npm i @microsoft/mgt-element@next. Make sure to install the same version for all mgt packages to avoid any conflicts. Keep in mind, these are features in preview and are not recommended for production use.

Components

You can explore components and samples with the playground powered by storybook.

The Toolkit currently includes the following components:

• mgt-agenda
• mgt-file
• mgt-file-list
• mgt-get
• mgt-login
• mgt-people
• mgt-people-picker
• mgt-person
• mgt-person-card
• mgt-picker
• mgt-search-box
• mgt-search-results
• mgt-tasks
• mgt-taxonomy-picker
• mgt-teams-channel-picker
• mgt-theme-toggle
• mgt-todo

All web components are also available as React component - see @microsoft/mgt-react documentation.

Providers

Providers enable authentication and provide the implementation for acquiring access tokens on various platforms. The providers also expose a Microsoft Graph Client for calling the Microsoft Graph APIs. The components work best when used with a provider, but the providers can be used on their own as well.

• Msal2Provider
• SharePointProvider
• TeamsFxProvider
• ProxyProvider
• SimpleProvider
• ElectronProvider

You can also create your own providers by extending the IProvider abstract class.

Getting Started

The following guides are available to help you get started with the Toolkit:

• Build a web application (JavaScript)
• Build a SharePoint web part Part
• Build a Microsoft Teams tab
• Build an Electron app
• Use the Toolkit with React
• Use the Toolkit with Angular
• Build a productivity hub app

You can use the components by installing the npm package or importing them from a CDN (unpkg).

Use via NPM:

The benefits of using MGT through NPM is that you have full control of the bundling process and you can bundle only the code you need for your site. First, add the npm package:

npm install @microsoft/mgt-components
npm install @microsoft/mgt-msal2-provider

Now you can reference all components and providers at the page you are using:

<script type="module">
  import { Providers } from 'node_modules/@microsoft/mgt-element/dist/es6/index.js';
  import { Msal2Provider } from 'node_modules/@microsoft/mgt-msal2-provider/dist/es6/index.js';
  import { registerMgtLoginComponent, registerMgtAgendaComponent } from 'node_modules/@microsoft/mgt-components/dist/es6/index.js';
  
  Providers.globalProvider = new Msal2Provider({clientId: '[CLIENT-ID]'});
  
  registerMgtLoginComponent();
  registerMgtAgendaComponent();
</script>

<mgt-login></mgt-login>
<mgt-agenda></mgt-agenda>

Use via CDN:

The following script tag downloads the code from the CDN, configures an MSAL2 provider, and makes all the components available for use in the web page.

<script type="module">
  import { registerMgtComponents, Providers, Msal2Provider } from 'https://unpkg.com/@microsoft/mgt@4';
  Providers.globalProvider = new Msal2Provider({clientId: '[CLIENT-ID]'});
  registerMgtComponents();
</script>
<mgt-login></mgt-login>
<mgt-agenda></mgt-agenda>

NOTE: This link will load the highest available version of @microsoft/mgt in the range >= 4.0.0 < 5.0.0, omitting the @4 fragment from the url results in loading the latest version. This could result in loading a new major version and breaking the application.

NOTE: MSAL requires the page to be hosted in a web server for the authentication redirects. If you are just getting started and want to play around, the quickest way is to use something like live server in vscode.
