To grant CtrlConnect access to your tenant, you need a Microsoft 365 Global Administrator. If you aren’t one, you can still start the setup and send the approval request to your Global Administrator.
1
Sign in with Microsoft
Go to app.ctrlconnect.nl and sign in with your Microsoft work account. CtrlConnect uses Entra ID single sign-on and does not store passwords.
2
Choose a data region
Pick North America or Europe. This sets where your tenant data is stored and can’t easily be changed later. See Connect your tenant for details.
3
Grant Microsoft permissions
Review the permissions CtrlConnect requests, then click Continue in Microsoft to open the Microsoft consent dialog. If you aren’t a Global Administrator, click Request approval instead and enter your administrator’s email address.
4
Open the overview
After consent is approved, CtrlConnect opens the overview. It shows users, licenses, sharing, and workspace health for your tenant.
5
Send your first review
Open Lifecycle > Workspaces, select an inactive workspace, and click Send review. Pick an email template and send it. The workspace owner receives a link to the review portal, where they can keep the workspace, send it back for another review, or ask for it to be deleted.
