Targeted News using Microsoft Graph Open Extension

Summary

This sample contains two SPFx web parts:

User preferences web part

This web part allows users to save their preferences in the Microsoft Graph Open Extension. This means that users can access their preferences from any device or application that uses the Microsoft Graph.
