MS Graph query condition (OData)

By default, Query criteria are used. But when the MS Graph query condition is specified, it overrides the Query criteria setting.

See this article for examples: How to use Query Builder dialog for Query Criteria and Filter rule settings – Cayosoft Help Center.

MS Graph advanced queries

Enables consistency level eventually which uses an index that might not be up-to-date with recent changes to the object.

Initialization script

Script

Usually, rules use query criteria to limit the query search scope. It improves the performance of the executed rule.

Due to PowerShell limitations, it is not possible to use calculated expressions in query criteria. That is the point where the initialization script can help. You can initialize a global variable in this setting and then use it in query criteria.

Example: Update AD users, created in the last ten days.

1. Add this initialization script:

{$global:DatePeriod = (Get-Date).AddDays(-10)}

2. Use $DatePeriod variable in the query criteria builder:
