Documentation forServer & Application Monitor
Monitoring your applications and environment is a key capability of SolarWinds Observability Self-Hosted (formerly Hybrid Cloud Observability) and is available in the Essentials edition. Server & Application Monitor (SAM) is also available in a standalone module.

Microsoft Office 365 Teams

This SAM application monitor template collects information about Office 365 Teams with the following component monitors:

  • Number of Calls
  • Number of Meetings
  • Number of Chat Messages
  • Number of daily users by device type
    • Web
    • Windows Phone and Windows
    • Android Phone
    • iOS
    • Mac

Prerequisites

The PSMSGraph PowerShell module is installed and the Client is configured in Azure AD. See Integrate Office 365 application monitor templates with Microsoft Graph in SAM.

When you configure the PSMSGraph PowerShell module, collect the following values to pass as arguments to component monitors in the following format and order of precedence.
client_id=<Value>, TenantID=<Value>, client_secret=<Value>, apiversion=v1.0

The apiversion=v1.0 parameter is required in PowerShell scripts for this template and related application monitors. Otherwise, scripts return [ERROR] The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found. messages. Alternatively, use the Microsoft 365 Teams API poller template.

Credentials

  • An SolarWinds Platform account with SAM administrator permissions.
  • An all-in-one, inclusive Office 365 account with Global Administrator privileges.

    Alternatively, use an account with an admin role that has permission to access data to be monitored via the Office 365 API.

    • Use UPN format (username@domain) — not domain\username format to enter credentials.

    To avoid authentication issues if passwords change, use a service account.

User has privileges to pass credentials as arguments to monitors.

Component monitors

For component monitors that require script arguments, use the same format configured for the PSMSGraph PowerShell module:

client_id=<Value>, TenantID=<Value>, client_secret=<Value>, apiversion=v1.0
