About

Microsoft Entra ID ships in the w6w first-party pack. It declares 28 actions, 3 health checks, and the host runs its code in a sandbox that never sees the credential.

Overview

Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory) is the identity directory behind Microsoft 365 and Azure, and this app manages it through the Microsoft Graph API.

It covers the day-to-day work of an identity administrator: listing, finding, creating, updating, disabling and deleting users; resetting a password; creating and managing security and Microsoft 365 groups, including their members and owners; reading which directory roles are activated and who holds them; looking up the app registrations and service principals in a tenant; reading the organization’s profile; and listing and restoring deleted users and groups before the 30-day recycle window closes.

Two things from Microsoft’s own model are worth knowing before you build a workflow on it. Nearly every permission here needs a tenant administrator to consent, and the signed-in user also needs a directory role such as User Administrator for writes. And directory queries that filter on anything unusual, sort, search or count have to opt into Graph’s advanced query path, which reads from an index that can lag a write by a few moments. The app handles the header for you.

It does not manage licenses, conditional access policies, role assignments, sign-in logs, devices or app registrations’ secrets; those are separate Graph surfaces.

Build with Microsoft Entra ID

Three routes to the same 28 actions. The Workflow tab is generated from Microsoft Entra ID's own manifest and carries its real ids, so it is copy-pasteable; the Code and CLI examples are the same call for any action on any app, so every app-specific value in them is a blank you fill in.

Add Group Member

add-group-member

Reset User Password

reset-user-password

Set a new password for a user, as an administrator.

Restore Deleted Item

restore-deleted-item

Restore a soft-deleted user or group within its 30-day window.

Update Group

update-group

Update a group's name, description, nickname or visibility.

Update User

update-user

Update properties of a user, including enabling or disabling the account.

A workflow step names the app and the action, and the editor fills in the connection when you pick one. This is the Step shape from the workflow spec, carrying Microsoft Entra ID's real ids.

{

+23 more actions available

Every app-specific value here is a blank you have to fill in. An app action is reached through the connection that authenticates it, so the address is a connection id, not the app id — and connections belong to your account, so a public page cannot know yours. Create one for Microsoft Entra ID, then fill in the three blanks: conn_YOUR_CONNECTION_ID, the action key, and the parameters that action declares. The call itself is real — the shape is transcribed from the studio's own snippet builder, which prints the same kind of blanks — but nothing in it is specific to Microsoft Entra ID. The Workflow tab is where this app's real ids are.

Install
npm install @w6w/sdk
yarn add @w6w/sdk
pnpm add @w6w/sdk
deno add npm:@w6w/sdk
Code
import { W6wClient, isActionRun } from "@w6w/sdk";

// Reads W6W_BASE_URL and W6W_TOKEN from the environment when omitted.
const client = new W6wClient();

const envelope = await client.run({
  urn: "conn_YOUR_CONNECTION_ID",
  action: "add-group-member",
  payload: {
    groupId: "<value>",
    memberId: "<value>",
  },
});

if (isActionRun(envelope)) console.log(envelope.value);
Install the CLI
npm install -g @w6w/cli
CLI
w6w run conn_YOUR_CONNECTION_ID --action add-group-member --payload '{"groupId":"<value>","memberId":"<value>"}'

Give an AI agent Microsoft Entra ID — without giving it Microsoft Entra ID's credentials. One MCP endpoint exposes every app, function and workflow the caller is entitled to, as tools it can discover and run. Access is granted per team while we onboard.

One tool call
{
  "name": "w6w_invoke",
  "arguments": {
    "ref": "app:io.w6w.microsoft-entra-id#add-group-member",
    "input": {
      "groupId": "<groupId>",
      "memberId": "<memberId>"
    }
  }
}

Every tool names its target with a single ref. The app: form above doesn't name a connection at all — the host resolves which of the caller's Microsoft Entra ID connections to sign with, and refuses rather than guesses when the answer is ambiguous.

What the agent gets

Credentials it can't read

The token is attached host-side, at the moment of the call. It is never a tool argument, never in the model's context, and never in a transcript — so a prompt injection has nothing to exfiltrate.

A tool surface scoped to the caller

Tools are derived per end user from what that person has actually connected and is entitled to — not one shared bot identity carrying the union of everyone's access.

A durable workflow in one call

Multi-step work runs on the workflow engine and returns a run handle the agent can poll — retries, branching and state survive the conversation that started them.

Health-aware discovery

Microsoft Entra ID's declared health checks are on the surface too, so an agent can tell "the vendor is down" from "your credential expired" before it burns a retry on either.

The MCP surface is part of the hosted platform. Microsoft Entra ID itself is MIT, and the runtime that executes it is source-available (FSL).

Request MCP access

Health checks

Microsoft Entra ID declares its own checks, so its health is a property of the app rather than something the host guesses at.

dependency

Microsoft Graph reachable

Unauthenticated GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/organization. A 401 carrying Graph's JSON error envelope (`error.code`) passes — it proves the API and its auth layer are answering.
