A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for interacting with Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Office services through the Graph API.
Supported Clouds
This server supports multiple Microsoft cloud environments:
| Cloud | Description | Auth Endpoint | Graph API Endpoint |
|---|---|---|---|
| Global (default) | International Microsoft 365 | login.microsoftonline.com | graph.microsoft.com |
| China (21Vianet) | Microsoft 365 operated by 21Vianet | login.chinacloudapi.cn | microsoftgraph.chinacloudapi.cn |

Output Format: JSON vs TOON
The server supports two output formats that can be configured globally:
JSON Format (Default)
Standard JSON output with pretty-printing:
{
"value": [
{
"id": "1",
"displayName": "Alice Johnson",
"mail": "alice@example.com",
"jobTitle": "Software Engineer"
}
]
}
(experimental) TOON Format
Token-Oriented Object Notation for efficient LLM token usage:
value[1]{id,displayName,mail,jobTitle}:
"1",Alice Johnson,alice@example.com,Software Engineer
Benefits:
- 30-60% fewer tokens vs JSON
- Best for uniform array data (lists of emails, calendar events, files, etc.)
- Ideal for cost-sensitive applications at scale
Usage: (experimental) Enable TOON format globally:
Via CLI flag:
npx @softeria/ms-365-mcp-server --toon
Via Claude Desktop configuration:
{
"mcpServers": {
"ms365": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@softeria/ms-365-mcp-server", "--toon"]
}
}
}
Via environment variable:
MS365_MCP_OUTPUT_FORMAT=toon npx @softeria/ms-365-mcp-server
