Who it's for
Developers with some TypeScript wanting a quick, hands-on look at Graph Connectors.
Who should skip it
Anyone looking for a deep dive or a full-stack project build.
Pros
Guided, copy-paste exercises are quick to complete.
Clear, step-by-step instructions for configuring a basic connector.
Up-to-date with recent Copilot extensibility patterns.
Cons
No actual coding required; all code is provided.
Exercises don't go beyond setting up the sample.
Requires a developer tenant, which can be a hurdle for casual learners.
Copying a block of JSON into a `schema.json` file, then running `npm start`… and that’s pretty much the whole experience. You don't write any actual TypeScript in this module, just copy snippets and run commands. I guess it gets the job done for a quick look at how the pieces fit together—schema, ingestion, security trimming. It shows you what's possible.
It was a bit of a pain getting the developer tenant set up just for this, so be ready for that. I finished this and the .NET version in one afternoon. They're almost identical, just swapping out `npm` for `dotnet`. If you're trying to figure out which one to do, just pick the language you already know; the concepts are the same. Don't expect to be building your own custom connector from scratch afterwards, though.
