Does Microsoft365 DSC support Power BI for exporting config
M365 DSC documentation has a list of 'resource list' at https://github.com/microsoft/Microsoft365DSC/wiki/Resources-List but this list does not translate to a few modules we have: Defender for Identity, Power BI, Azure information protection, Defender for cloud apps, defender for O365. Are these M365 components/features supported by M365 DSC, if so under which resources? are there any gotcha's when trying to use DSC to export the config and use it on another tenant?
- As sysadmin I use many PowerShell scripts on the daily basis. To make them more accessible, organized and easy to execute I created a tool for myself using .NET 5. Decided to share tool with community, may be it might be useful for someone

Anyone using Micrsoft365DSC for 365 automation / documentation ?
Microsoft365DSC is an Open-Source initiative hosted on GitHub, lead by Microsoft engineers and maintained by the community. It allows you to write a definition for how your Microsoft 365 tenant should be configured, automate the deployment of that configuration, and ensures the monitoring of the defined configuration, notifying and acting on detected configuration drifts. It also allows you to extract a full-fidelity configuration out of any existing Microsoft 365 tenant. The tool covers all major Microsoft 365 workloads such as Exchange Online, Teams, Power Platforms, SharePoint and Security and Compliance.

If handling CUI (CMMC ML3 or higher), you'll need to demonstrate practice and process maturity, take a look at Microsoft365DSC https://github.com/Microsoft/Microsoft365DSC. Combination of detective controls to implement: generate alerts if the configuration that requires encryption changes/generate logs providing positive verification that the configuration is in place; perform automated audits of the configuration on a regular schedule to validate that the configuration is in place. In both cases, retain the evidence (log files, alerts, DSC exports, etc.) so assessors can see that the configuration has been in place and that oversight is continuous and proactive.
