Required API permissions
The following Microsoft Graph API permissions are required by this app.
Some permissions may already be pre-approved by Microsoft, while others require manual approval by a user with the Global Administrator role after the app has been deployed. See our guide to approving API permissions for full instructions.
Scope | Purpose | Pre-approved by Microsoft |
User.Read.All | Read the user's full profile for the live persona card. | ⛔ No |
People.Read.All | Read the user's relevant people list for the live persona card. | ✅ Yes |
Contacts.Read | Read the user's contact list for the live persona card. | ⛔ No |
Contacts.ReadWrite | Read and write to the user's contact list to update their contacts from the live persona card. | ⛔ No |
These permissions are delegated, apply organization-wide, and are essential for the app to function properly.
Data storage
Data for the Noticeboard app is stored in SharePoint lists and libraries. These are provisioned from the app as and when required. The lists/libraries provisioned are:
List/library title | Relative URL | Purpose |
Noticeboard posts | /Lists/WMNB_ NoticeboardPosts | Storage of the posts. |
Noticeboard categories | /Lists/WMNB_ NoticeboardCategories | Categorisation of the posts. |
Noticeboard user images | /WMNB_ NoticeboardUserImages | A hidden document library for post images uploaded by a user. |
Recommended deployment scope
It is expected that the Noticeboard app is made available only on specific areas of your SharePoint tenant as necessary, e.g., a home site or landing site.
Therefore, it is recommended to select the Only enable this app option on deployment (see the Installation instructions page). This means the app is available for Site Owners to manually add to their site.
