This document provides an overview and summary of Microsoft Graph and related cognitive services. It begins with an introduction to why Microsoft Graph is important and then outlines the agenda which includes announcements from Ignite and Build conferences, getting started tools and resources, API highlights and demos, and next steps. It then dives into each section providing more details on Microsoft Graph capabilities and integrations, cognitive services like LUIS and custom vision, SDKs and libraries, authentication, permissions, and data security best practices. Live demos are also provided to showcase Microsoft Graph functionality and tools.

Dataset based access
rather than real time
API based access
Row and column level
scoping with advanced
filtering capability
Control and visibility over
your data throughout its
entire lifecycle

32. Don't Get Throttled!
• Microsoft Graph endpoint is normally performant (dynamic scaling/throttling)
• HTTP 429 (too many requests) response code
• “10,000 requests in a 10-minute period per user”
• App-only perms. count as single user
• Can be throttled on per tenant basis
• Plan for graceful degradation on 429 response
• Respect the Retry-After header
• Check for Rate-Limit-Reason header
• Use webhooks rather than polling
• Retrieve multiple items/request instead of multiple requests
• Use caching and JSON batching where possible
• Use $top, $select etc. to manage payload size
