Alert when Users' Mailboxes are Reaching Quota Crate

What does the Alert when Users' Mailboxes are Reaching Quota Crate do?

This Crate monitors user mailboxes in Microsoft Exchange Online for reaching their storage quota. When a user's mailbox reaches a defined percentage of its total capacity, a ticket with details about the user's license and archive information will be generated in your PSA system to alert you. If the PSA is not configured, an email notification will be sent instead.

The crate workflow is triggered by a cron job based on the configured schedule.
