Microsoft Dataverse: Microsoft 365 collaboration - Discover, build, customize, and extend with management MCP server

Microsoft Dataverse: Microsoft 365 collaboration - Discover, build, customize, and extend with management MCP server is a Microsoft 365 roadmap item published via Microsoft Release Communications. Current status: In development.

The management MCP server is a build surface and registry for agent-ready tools available within a customer's environment. It exposes an addressable endpoint where developers and agents can discover, assemble, and deploy MCP servers made from trusted components including connector actions, tools from other MCP servers, and custom APIs. Discover available tools and servers Find MCP servers authored, hosted, or certified by Microsoft Query and explore over 1,470 connectors and their individual actions Discover custom APIs available in your organization or from partner teams Create and customize MCP servers Build new MCP servers by selecting connector actions, APIs, and reusable tools Clone an existing MCP server, such as a Dataverse MCP, and tailor it by adding or removing tools to match your scenario Use MCP servers as modular, scenario-focused endpoints that can be reused across agents Endpoint driven developer experience Accessible as a simple environment scoped URL—no UI required Use in Visual Studio Code, Claude, or any agent or tool that supports HTTP Compose, publish, and maintain MCP servers entirely through API calls Enterprise ready governance and control Enforce data loss prevention (DLP) policies Apply access controls at both the MCP server and individual tool level The management MCP server gives you everything you need to build and scale agents using tools you already trust, no interface required, just secure, extensible control from the systems you already manage. Business Value: The management Model Context Protocol (MCP) server gives developers and system integrators a central API-based foundation to discover and build custom MCP servers. Through a single environment scoped endpoint, teams can find Microsoft certified or internal MCP servers, search across 1,470 connector actions and APIs, and create new or customized MCP servers with the exact tools their agents need. This capability reduces redundant development and enables a flexible, secure path from prototype to production across platforms like Visual Studio Code and Claude.

Wave 0 first: Security → GRC → Cost & Value → Licence → Adoption. Put this on the agent register with a named owner. Do not enable broadly until permissions, DLP, and reclaim rules exist.

12 Panes: 03 Horizon · 04 Security · 05 GRC · 09 Work & Skills

• Security: Assess exposure, Conditional Access, and agent/tool permissions.
• GRC: Update AI/agent register and evidence path; confirm DPIA triggers if personal data is in scope.
• FinOps: Forecast seat or credit impact; align to frozen value case.
• Adoption: Plan cohort messaging, clinics, and success measures.
• Comms: One story for board and staff — what changes, what does not, who owns risk.

• May improve productivity on a specific Microsoft 365 surface when permissions and data quality allow.
• Roadmap visibility helps Horizon planning without guessing dates.
• Agents can automate multi-step work inside existing Microsoft 365 permissions.

• Status and dates change; treat MRC as directional, not a contract.
• Enabling without Steady controls can amplify overshare or cost leakage.
• Agents act; over-privilege and ownerless agents create lasting exposure.
• Preview or rolling features can change behaviour; fence exploration on Pane 12 Frontier.
