# Mailbox Activity

This report shows how much each mailbox in the selected tenant has actually been used over a chosen period, with one row per user. It counts messages sent, received, and read, along with meeting activity, which makes it useful for spotting dormant mailboxes before a licence review.

## Filters

The **Report Period** section at the top of the page sets how far back the report reaches: 7, 30, 90, or 180 days. It defaults to 30 days. **Apply** reloads the report over the chosen period, and **Reset** returns it to 30 days.

## Table Details

The information displayed comes from the prebuilt Graph report `getEmailActivityUserDetail`. For additional details please see the [Graph documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/reportroot-getemailactivityuserdetail?view=graph-rest-beta\&tabs=http).

{% hint style="info" %}
Microsoft usage reporting lags a day or two behind real time, so **Report Refresh Date** rather than today's date is the point the counts are accurate to. A mailbox created after that date has no row at all.
{% endhint %}

Selecting All Tenants queues the report as a background job, so the table stays empty with a queued message until every tenant has been collected.

## Anonymised Reports

Microsoft 365 has a tenant-wide setting that conceals user names in usage reports, replacing them with hashes rather than user principal names. Where CIPP detects that this report has come back anonymised, it shows a warning above the results.

The fix is on the tenant, not in CIPP. Enabling the **Enable Usernames instead of pseudo anonymised names in reports** standard turns the setting off, after which the report needs running again to pick up real names.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.cipp.app/user-documentation/email/reports/mailbox-activity.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
