Social Squared Microsoft Graph permissions

This is a list of the Microsoft Graph permissions requested by the Social Squared SPFx web part for SharePoint Online.

Following is a list of all of the Microsoft Graph permissions requested by the current version of Social Squared (4.0.0.0). You may decide not to approve any for which you do not need the functionality provided by that permission. Note that many of these permissions are necessary for Social Squared to function correctly within Microsoft Teams.

These are all "Delegated" permissions, which a Global or Application Admin can approve on the API Access page in the SharePoint Admin Center. They will then be listed as API Permissions under the SharePoint Online Client Extensibility Web Application Principal application in Azure AD in your tenant.
