Microsoft Graph Structured Data Automation Pipeline

This project automates the retrieval, processing, and transformation of structured data using the Microsoft Graph API. It streamlines complex MCP-style workflows by integrating graph-based data retrieval with an intelligent processing layer. The pipeline improves reliability, consistency, and performance in high-volume structured data operations.

Introduction

This automation addresses the need to ingest and process structured data using the Microsoft Graph API in a repeatable and scalable manner. Manual retrieval and correlation of graph data is slow, error-prone, and difficult to replicate across environments. This pipeline centralizes the logic, validates data, and delivers consistent outputs across multiple datasets.

Enterprise Data Integration for Graph Workflows

• Eliminates repetitive manual graph queries through automated orchestration
• Normalizes and correlates cross-entity structured data at scale
• Ensures predictable performance under large datasets and complex relationship graphs
• Creates a reusable module for future data-driven automation or RAG hybrid workflows
• Enhances data quality with validation, schemas, and secure access controls

Core Features

Feature	Description
Authentication Manager	Secure OAuth2 flow for Microsoft Graph API access
Graph Data Fetcher	Retrieves multi-node structured data from Graph endpoints
Relationship Resolver	Builds dependency graphs and cross-entity links
Structured Data Normalizer	Cleans, validates, and formats data for downstream use
Caching Layer	Reduces redundant calls and boosts performance
Schema Validator	Ensures all data adheres to expected structure
Configurable Pipelines	Users can define endpoints, fields, and rules
Export Integrations	Outputs JSON, CSV, or API-ready formats
Error & Retry Engine	Auto-recovers from transient API failures
Logging System	Full activity tracking for debugging and audit
Rate Limit Handler	Ensures stability under Graph throttling conditions
RAG Hybrid Hooks	Optional connectors for retrieval-augmented workflows

How It Works

Step	Description
Input or Trigger	The pipeline starts from a scheduled task, CLI trigger, or workflow call with configuration parameters.
Core Logic	Retrieves structured data via Microsoft Graph, validates fields, resolves relationships, and processes them through the normalization engine.
Output or Action	Outputs structured datasets, relationship maps, or pre-processed files for downstream systems.
Other Functionalities	Includes retry logic, caching, throttling controls, and parallel execution for larger datasets.
Safety Controls	Uses rate limiting, access token validation, and endpoint-specific cooldowns to ensure safe and compliant operation.

FAQs

Q: Does this pipeline support multiple Microsoft Graph endpoints simultaneously? Yes. You can configure multiple endpoints in the YAML configuration, and the pipeline will orchestrate them sequentially or in parallel.

Q: Can the schema validation be customized? Absolutely. You can define your own field mappings, required attributes, and datatype constraints using Pydantic models.

Q: How does the pipeline handle throttling or rate limits? It includes automatic backoff, token refresh, and intelligent batching to ensure stable operation under strict Graph constraints.

Q: Can the system run on a schedule? Yes. It can be orchestrated via cron, GitHub Actions, or any external workflow runner.
