Azure Active Directory Synchronization Migration to MS Graph API at Mimecast

Microsoft is ending support for the Azure Active Directory Graph API. To allow for continued service, if your application providers migrate all Azure Active Directory Synchronization integrations to the MS Graph API, you need to change your API permissions.

In my case, Mimecast will migrate all Azure Active Directory Synchronization integrations to the MS Graph API. For Mimecast to do so, you need to grant the required API permissions to the Azure application you created for the Azure Active Directory Synchronization to your Mimecast account. This action must be completed as soon as possible and no later than June 14, 2022, to avoid the risk of service disruption.
