Q: Can a QuickHelp Admin restrict QuickHelp licenses during User Import?
A: Yes. There are two options to restrict QuickHelp licenses when using Microsoft Office Graph to provision users.
- A QuickHelp Admin can select to Automatically assign licenses to their users. All users with any type of O365 license will be brought into QuickHelp. However, as long as there are unique identifiers that differentiate end users using the filters below, the Admin can use these filters to determine who will receive a QuickHelp license.
- O365 License Type
- Department
- Title
- Country
- A QuickHelp Admin can select to Manually assign licenses to their users. All users with any type of O365 license will be brought into QuickHelp, but no one will receive a QuickHelp license. The Admin can then manually assign licenses in the Admin Portal > Users, or they can upload a CSV containing the users to license.

Security
Q: How does Authorization with Microsoft Graph work?
A: When the global Admin authenticates, Microsoft provides QuickHelp with an authorization token. This authorization token is used in subsequent queries to synchronize the data that you have selected while enabling Microsoft Graph.
Q: Does QuickHelp need a Microsoft Global Admin to authenticate with QuickHelp?
A: Yes. Because QuickHelp requests user data from your Microsoft Graph, a Microsoft Global Admin must grant that permission.
Q: Can QuickHelp still access the Microsoft Graph data points if it is no longer enabled?
A: No. If Microsoft Graph is not enabled, QuickHelp will not be able to access Microsoft Graph data points.
Q: Can QuickHelp or QuickHelp access the admin credentials used to sign into O365?
A: No. When you sign in to O365 to enable Microsoft Graph for QuickHelp, you sign into a Microsoft generated and controlled dialog. The information you enter there is only visible to Microsoft. QuickHelp or QuickHelp has no way of accessing it.
Q: Can QuickHelp see email communication/confidential information if Microsoft Graph is enabled?
A: No. Enabling Microsoft Graph for QuickHelp does not give QuickHelp visibility into any specific content such as your emails, or document content. Microsoft Graph functionality is designed to solely provide you with usage reporting information as number of messages sent, number of emails read, etc.
Q: How is security for the Authorization Token managed by QuickHelp?
A: The Microsoft Graph authorization tokens are stored in a database that is encrypted with AES-256.
Q: Can QuickHelp access data outside of the requested permissions?
A: Microsoft prevents applications and developers such as QuickHelp from accessing data outside of the requested permissions through scopes. These scopes are enabled by the authorization token provided by Microsoft to QuickHelp when the admin user accepts the requested permissions. When QuickHelp uses the token to access data any subsequent number of times, Microsoft verifies that token and ensures that the application can only access the data it is enabled to access by the admin. Any requests to access additional data are denied.
Q: Does QuickHelp have access to any PII through Graph?
A: Yes. QuickHelp receives non-sensitive PII. E.g.: Email, first name, last name, department, title, etc.
Q: Is the use of Microsoft Graph data in QuickHelp GDPR compliant?
A: Yes. Any data collected by QuickHelp via Microsoft Graph is GDPR compliant and a user has the same level of control on this data as all other data in the application.
