Information Response
Does your application integrate with Microsoft identity platform (Microsoft Entra ID) for single-sign on, API access, etc.? Yes
Have you reviewed and complied with all applicable best practices outlined in the Microsoft identity platform integration checklist? Yes
Does your app use the latest version of MSAL (Microsoft Authentication Library) or Microsoft Identity Web for authentication? No
Does your app support Conditional Access policies? Yes
If your app does not use one of the above libraries, what authentication library or libraries does it use? A custom OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect implementation calling the Microsoft identity platform endpoints (login.microsoftonline.com) directly over HTTPS for user sign-in, admin consent, and app-only/RSC token acquisition. Inbound Bot Framework request JWTs are validated with Node.js crypto (RS256 signature verification against Microsoft's published JWKS, plus issuer/audience/exp/nbf checks). Clerk is used for first-party dashboard user authentication.
List the types of policies supported All interactive delegated sign in go through the Microsoft identity platform authorize endpoint, so any tenant Conditional Access policy applied at sign in is enforced by Entra ID before a token is issued, including MFA requirements, compliant / hybrid-joined device requirements, trusted-location / IP-based policies, and sign-in-risk policies.
Does your app support Continuous Access Evaluation (CAE) No
Does your app store any credentials in code? No
Apps and add-ins for Microsoft 365 might use additional Microsoft APIs outside of Microsoft Graph. Does your app or add-in use additional Microsoft APIs? Yes

Data access using Microsoft Graph

Graph Permission Permission Type Justification Microsoft Entra App ID
AppCatalog.Read.All delegated Look up the OverScope bot's Teams catalog app ID (by externalId) so the bot can be installed into the selected team before it posts alert cards. be01da49-621a-4459-bddc-f8c0bf389da8
Channel.ReadBasic.All delegated Reads channel names so the user can map a channel to a project during setup, and to build the correct resource path for the channel-message change-notification subscription. be01da49-621a-4459-bddc-f8c0bf389da8
ChannelMember.Read.Group rsc The application-permission path for real-time channel-message monitoring, scoped only to the specific team where the OverScope app is installed. Lets the app read new channel messages for scope analysis without depending on a single user's delegated token, improving reliability of monitoring. be01da49-621a-4459-bddc-f8c0bf389da8
ChannelMessage.Read.All delegated Reads messages in the Teams channels the customer has chosen to monitor, so the app can analyse them against the project's Statement of Work and flag client requests that fall outside the agreed scope. Used as the delegated fallback path when resource-specific (RSC) monitoring is not available. be01da49-621a-4459-bddc-f8c0bf389da8
ChannelMessage.Read.All application App-only reading of channel messages for real-time monitoring when a delegated user token isn't available (subscription renewal / backfill) be01da49-621a-4459-bddc-f8c0bf389da8
ChannelMessage.Send delegated Posts the scope-creep alert (and the transparency/"now monitoring" notice) back into the channel as a reply. Used as a fallback for delivering alert cards when the Bot Framework Connector path is unavailable be01da49-621a-4459-bddc-f8c0bf389da8
Team.ReadBasic.All delegated Lists the teams the customer can select for monitoring and resolves basic team metadata used to set up and target the monitoring subscriptions. be01da49-621a-4459-bddc-f8c0bf389da8
TeamsAppInstallation.ReadWriteForTeam delegated Installs the OverScope bot into the selected team so it can post scope-alert Adaptive Cards into the channel. Without installation the bot cannot deliver alerts. be01da49-621a-4459-bddc-f8c0bf389da8
TeamsAppInstallation.ReadWriteForTeam.All application App-only bot installation into a team where no user context is available (automated/background install during channel enable). be01da49-621a-4459-bddc-f8c0bf389da8
User.Read delegated Basic sign-in; read the connecting user's own profile to establish the integration identity. be01da49-621a-4459-bddc-f8c0bf389da8
User.Read.All delegated Resolves the display names of message authors to roles (e.g. "[Client PM]") so messages can be attributed by role for scope scoring; names are redacted and not persisted. Also reads basic team-member metadata. be01da49-621a-4459-bddc-f8c0bf389da8
offline_access delegated Maintain access via refresh tokens so monitoring continues without repeated sign-in. (OIDC scope, not strictly a Graph permission, list it only because the portal shows it.) be01da49-621a-4459-bddc-f8c0bf389da8

This application does not have Additional APIs.
