Tenant-specific Configuration

Each tenant can have its own m365advisor-config.json by naming it with the tenant ID. This allows different emergency access accounts and severity overrides per tenant while sharing a common baseline.

How it works​

When M365Advisor runs, it automatically detects the connected tenant ID and looks for m365advisor-config.{tenantId}.json first. If no tenant-specific file exists, it falls back to m365advisor-config.json.

Example​

tests/
  m365advisor-config.json                                          # shared default
  m365advisor-config.a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890.json    # Contoso Production
  m365advisor-config.b2c3d4e5-f6a7-8901-bcde-f12345678901.json    # Fabrikam Development

In this example Contoso Production uses its own config with tenant-specific emergency access accounts, Fabrikam Development has different severity overrides, and any other tenant falls back to the shared m365advisor-config.json.

Config page in the report​

In multi-tenant reports, the Config page shows which config file was loaded for each tenant so you can verify the right file is being used.

Single-tenant users​

Single-tenant users are not affected. Everything works exactly as before with the default m365advisor-config.json. The tenant-specific lookup only activates when a file matching the pattern exists.
