Read-only

Get information of one or more items in a partner application, based on which a specified task was created. The information is represented in a linkedResource object for each item.

Instructions

Get information of one or more items in a partner application, based on which a specified task was created. The information is represented in a linkedResource object for each item. It includes an external ID for the item in the partner application, and if applicable, a deep link to that item in the application.

đź’ˇ TIP: Lists resources linked to a To Do task (emails, URLs, etc.). Each linked resource has displayName, webUrl, applicationName, and externalId.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
topNoPage size (Graph $top). Start small (e.g. 5–15) so responses fit the model context; raise only if needed. Use $select to return fewer fields per item. For more rows, use @odata.nextLink from the response instead of a very large $top.
skipNoItems to skip for pagination. Not supported with $search.
countNoSet true to enable advanced query mode (ConsistencyLevel: eventual). Required for complex $filter on flag/flagStatus or contains(). The response then includes @odata.count, the total for the filtered collection, which can exceed the items returned when fetchAllPages hits its page/item cap.
expandNoNavigation properties to inline, e.g. attachments on a message or event. Only navigation properties can be expanded: expanding a non-navigation property such as a message body fails with "Parsing OData Select and Expand failed". Request ordinary fields with $select instead. Some APIs accept only one relationship per request, so prefer a single value. Some relationships support nested selection, e.g. children($select=id,name).
filterNoOData filter expression. Add $count=true for advanced filters (flag/flagStatus, contains()). Cannot combine with $search.
searchNoKQL search query in one pair of double quotes; directory (users/groups) instead quotes each clause with no outer pair. Cannot combine with $filter.
selectNoComma-separated fields to return, e.g. id,subject,from,receivedDateTime
orderbyNoSort expression, e.g. receivedDateTime desc
skiptokenNoNext page: the @odata.nextLink from the previous response. Keep the other arguments the same.
todoTaskIdYesValue for the 'todoTaskId' path segment. Pass it under the name 'todoTaskId', not as 'id'. Use the 'id' field of the todo task object as returned by Microsoft Graph.
fetchAllPagesNoFollow @odata.nextLink and merge up to 100 pages into one response. Can return enormous payloads—only when the user explicitly needs a full export. Prefer a small $top first, then paginate or narrow with $filter/$search.
includeHeadersNoInclude response headers (including ETag) in the response metadata
todoTaskListIdYesValue for the 'todoTaskListId' path segment. Pass it under the name 'todoTaskListId', not as 'id'. Use the 'id' field of the todo task list object as returned by Microsoft Graph.
excludeResponseNoExclude the full response body and only return success or failure indication

TDQS

B3.2/5.0
Behavior3/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, destructiveHint=false and openWorldHint=true, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds the return shape (one linkedResource object per item, with externalId and a possible deep link), which is useful. It does not add behavior beyond the schema like ordering guarantees or volume caveats, though the schema params cover pagination.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Two short blocks with the entity-per-item detail front-loaded and the practical summary in the TIP. The opening sentence is awkwardly phrased ('items in a partner application, based on which a specified task was created'), but nothing is wasted or repeated verbatim from the schema.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness4/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

With no output schema, the description usefully enumerates the returned fields, and annotations carry the safety profile. For a 14-param list tool whose schema is fully documented, the remaining gap is only the absence of sibling/usage routing context.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100% across all 14 parameters, so the schema already documents pagination, filter/search, expand, select, and ID naming. The description adds nothing about the parameters themselves (only about returned fields), so the baseline 3 applies.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The TIP line states a clear verb+resource ('Lists resources linked to a To Do task') and distinguishes the returned entity (linkedResource with displayName, webUrl, applicationName, externalId). However it never names or contrasts against close siblings such as get-todo-task or create/delete-todo-linked-resource, so an agent must infer the boundary.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

There is no when-to-use guidance, no prerequisites, and no mention of the obvious alternatives (get-todo-task, create-todo-linked-resource, delete-todo-linked-resource). The schema's pagination advice implies a listing tool, but the description itself offers no routing or exclusion criteria.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
