Over a two-month period, contributed to the cisagov/ScubaGear repository by developing centralized permissions management for API access and refactoring Entra ID checks to use direct Graph API calls. The work focused on replacing hardcoded values with dynamic retrieval of permissions and endpoints, improving maintainability and auditability. By introducing a new permissions file integration and the Invoke-GraphDirectly function, the developer reduced dependencies on Microsoft Graph modules and streamlined API interactions. Using PowerShell scripting, API integration, and module development, these changes enhanced security, compliance, and performance while laying the foundation for scalable onboarding and future flexibility in managing API endpoints.
