Lower permissions for GitHub Enterprise Cloud Team Sync for Microsoft Entra ID

You can now use GitHub Enterprise Cloud Team Sync for Microsoft Entra ID with a new lower permission, GroupMember.Read.All, to sync group state into GitHub.

The new permission provides the least privileged permissions needed in order to access data and function correctly. New installations will request the new permission while existing installations will continue to work without interruption.

Administrators who wish to reduce the permissions of their existing installation can reinstall the application, or use the App Role Assignments API to modify the permissions of their existing service.
