This query is used to detect when a new Exchange admin role is created and extract the permissions associated with it. It requires a data connector for Office 365. It filters the OfficeActivity table for entries where the operation is "New-RoleGroup" and the record type is "ExchangeAdmin". It then parses the parameters to extract the role name and the permissions added. The final result includes the time generated, the actor (user ID), the role name, and the permissions added.
