Test-MtEntitlementManagementOrphanedResources

SYNOPSIS​

Checks if catalogs contain unused resources without associated access packages

SYNTAX​

Test-MtEntitlementManagementOrphanedResources [-ProgressAction <ActionPreference>] [<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION​

MT.1110 - No catalog should contain resources without any associated access packages

This test identifies Microsoft Entra ID Governance access package catalogs that contain resources (groups, applications, SharePoint sites) that are not used in any access package.

Unused catalog resources can indicate:

  • Resources added but never configured in packages
  • Leftover resources from deleted or modified access packages
  • Configuration drift or incomplete setup
  • Potential security and governance gaps
  • Wasted administrative effort maintaining unused resources

The test validates that:

  • All catalog resources are used in at least one access package
  • Resources are properly linked to package role scopes
  • No orphaned resources exist in catalogs
  • Catalog resources serve their intended purpose
