# User purpose property

### Userpurpose property explained

[Userpurpose](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/resources/mailboxsettings?view=graph-rest-1.0#userpurpose-values) is an exchange property that can tell what a users mailbox is used for.

To allow Bsure Insights to read these values you have to give the managed identity inside the application access to read these settings by adding the following permission [MailboxSettings.Read](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/permissions-reference#mailboxsettingsread)

MailboxSettings.Read gives access to read the following information <https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/resources/mailboxsettings?view=graph-rest-1.0#properties>

### How to add permissions

Start cloud shell with a user having Global administrator privileges - <https://portal.azure.com/#cloudshell/>

Copy script below and paste as plain text to run it in cloud shell.

*There is no need to edit script. Script will search for all installations (managed identities) used by Bsure Insights and add this new permission*

<pre class="language-powershell"><code class="lang-powershell"><strong>$BSureSpnName = 'Bsure-Umi-'
</strong>
$BsurePermissions = @(
  "Directory.Read.All"
  "AuditLog.Read.All"
  "Domain.Read.All"
  "Reports.Read.All"
  "Policy.Read.All"
  "MailboxSettings.Read"
)

$GraphAppId = "00000003-0000-0000-c000-000000000000"

$msGraphSpn = Get-AzADServicePrincipal -Filter "appId eq '$GraphAppId'"

$RolesToAdd = $msGraphSpn.AppRole | Where-Object {($_.Value -in $BsurePermissions) -and ($_.AllowedMemberType -contains "Application")}

(Get-AzADServicePrincipal -DisplayNameBeginsWith $BSureSpnName) | ForEach-Object{

    $script:graphAPIReqHeader = @{
        Authorization = "Bearer $($(Get-AzAccessToken -ResourceTypeName MSGraph).token | ConvertFrom-SecureString -AsPlainText)"
        Host = "graph.microsoft.com"
    }

    $currentSPN = $_
    $currentSPN
    $assignedPermissionsUri = "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/servicePrincipals/$($currentSPN.Id)/appRoleAssignments"

    $currentAssignments = Invoke-RestMethod -Method Get -Uri $assignedPermissionsUri -Headers $script:graphAPIReqHeader | Select-Object -ExpandProperty value
    
    $RolesToAddClean = $RolesToAdd | Where-Object {($_.id -notin $($currentAssignments.appRoleId))}
    
    foreach($AppRole in $RolesToAddClean)
    {
        $body = @{
            principalId = $currentSPN.Id
            resourceId = $msGraphSpn.id
            appRoleId = $AppRole.id
        } | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 99 -Compress -EscapeHandling EscapeNonAscii
    
        Invoke-RestMethod -Method Post -Uri $assignedPermissionsUri -Headers $script:graphAPIReqHeader -Body $body -ContentType "application/json"
    }
    
    $RolesToRemoveClean = $currentAssignments.appRoleId | Where-Object {($_ -notin $($RolesToAdd.id))}
    
    foreach($AppRole in $RolesToRemoveClean)
    {

        Invoke-RestMethod -Method Delete -Uri "$assignedPermissionsUri/$toRemoveId" -Headers $script:graphAPIReqHeader
    }
}

Write-Host "Done setting permissions for $($spnBsure.DisplayName) ($($spnBsure.Id))"

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.bsure.io/v1/support/new-features/user-purpose-property.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
