Microsoft Graph: Connect Your People, Knowledge And AI

Your Organisation Already Has The Intelligence. Connect It.

Every email, meeting, document, conversation and collaboration creates information about how your organisation works.

The challenge is connecting those signals.

Microsoft Graph provides the connective layer across Microsoft 365, helping Microsoft technologies understand relationships between people, information, activity and organisational knowledge. Also helping power Copilot, AI Agents and intelligent workplace experiences.

At CPS, we help organisations understand how this connected intelligence can support Microsoft 365 Copilot, AI Agents and the wider Microsoft IQ strategy.

Why Microsoft Graph?

  • Connect Organisational Information: Bring together signals from Microsoft 365 applications and services.
  • Add Context To AI: Help AI understand the user’s work, relationships and relevant information.
  • Surface Knowledge: Make relevant documents, expertise and information easier to discover.
  • Personalise Experiences: Enable Microsoft technologies to provide more relevant experiences based on context.
  • Support Intelligent Agents: Provide agents with the relationships, knowledge and permissions they need to deliver more useful outcomes. Explore AI Agents further.

The Challenge With Generic AI

AI without context produces generic answers.

Organisational AI needs to understand:

  • People: Who works with whom?
  • Knowledge: Which information is relevant?
  • Relationships: How are people, documents and activities connected?
  • Activity: What is happening across the organisation?
  • Permissions: What information can each person or system access?

Microsoft Graph helps provide this context across Microsoft 365.

What Is Microsoft Graph?

The Context Layer Behind Microsoft 365 Intelligence

Microsoft Graph connects information and relationships across services including:

This creates a connected understanding of people, content, relationships and activity.

Microsoft Graph & AI

Context Makes AI More Useful

Microsoft Graph helps provide the organisational context behind:

  • Microsoft 365 Copilot: Personalised productivity assistance.
  • Copilot Chat: AI experiences that can work with relevant work context and content.
  • AI Agents: More relevant, contextual interactions and actions.
  • Work IQ: Understanding how work happens across the organisation.
  • Microsoft IQ: Connecting organisational intelligence across Microsoft technologies.

Microsoft Graph & The Agent-First Organisation

AI Agents need more than instructions. They need context.

Agents increasingly need access to:

  • Organisational knowledge
  • Relationships
  • Activity
  • Business context
  • Permissions

Microsoft Graph provides an important foundation for that connected understanding.

AI agents can only be as effective as the context they’re given. Is yours connected? Discover how organisations are preparing for an agent-first future by giving AI access to the knowledge, relationships and business context needed to deliver meaningful outcomes.
