Microsoft OneNote for AI agents

Microsoft OneNote is a digital notebook for capturing notes, drawings, and information organized into notebooks and sections. Individuals and teams use it to keep meeting notes and reference material. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.

  1. 01Your users connect Microsoft OneNoteThey sign in to Microsoft OneNote on Arc0 Connect, under your brand, and approve the access you ask for.
  2. 02You set the rulesReads run, writes like “create user OneNote page” can wait for the user, and “delete OneNote page from site” can be denied outright.
  3. 03Any agent can actYour agent calls Microsoft OneNote through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How Microsoft OneNote connects.

Users sign in to Microsoft OneNote on Arc0 Connect and approve the scopes you request. Build with Arc0’s Microsoft OneNote OAuth app, or bring your own so the Microsoft OneNote consent screen names you. Tokens refresh automatically, and you can export them whenever you want.

The same Microsoft OneNote connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

07 · FAQ

Microsoft OneNote and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use Microsoft OneNote with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect Microsoft OneNote to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Microsoft OneNote actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect Microsoft OneNote?

Users sign in to Microsoft OneNote on Arc0 Connect and approve the scopes you request. Build with Arc0’s Microsoft OneNote OAuth app, or bring your own so the Microsoft OneNote consent screen names you. Tokens refresh automatically, and you can export them whenever you want.

Q03

Which Microsoft OneNote actions can my agent take?

83 in total: 45 read, 33 write and 5 destructive, such as “create user OneNote page”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Microsoft OneNote?

Yes. Actions like “delete OneNote page from site” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.

Q05

Can my own backend call Microsoft OneNote too?

Yes. The same Microsoft OneNote connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
