Enterprise administrators deploying Claude for Excel, PowerPoint, Word, and Outlook can review the security architecture for their chosen deployment mode and connect audit logs, usage analytics, and spend tracking to existing enterprise tooling.

​
Security architecture

The Trust Center publishes architecture diagrams that show how user prompts, document content, and responses flow between the Office add-ins, Claude, and your infrastructure. Review the diagram that matches your deployment mode before rollout.
  • Anthropic first-party: users sign in with their Claude accounts and requests go directly to Claude. See the first-party architecture overview.
  • Third-party platforms: requests route through Amazon Bedrock, Google Cloud Vertex AI, Azure AI Foundry, or an LLM gateway. The companion third-party architecture diagram is listed alongside the first-party one in the Trust Center resources; filter for “Claude for Excel, PowerPoint, Word”. See Use Claude for M365 with third-party platforms for deployment guidance.

​
Audit and observability

Forward Claude for M365 activity to your existing observability stack with a custom OpenTelemetry collector endpoint. When a custom collector is configured, spans are exported unfiltered to that endpoint and include the full audit trail: session identifiers, surface, tool inputs and outputs, and prompt and response content. Treat the endpoint as containing prompt and document content when scoping access controls and retention. Only spans sent to Anthropic’s own collector are allowlist-filtered to strip sensitive attributes; that path is bypassed entirely when a custom endpoint is set. See Configure a custom OpenTelemetry collector for Claude for M365 for the manifest parameters and endpoint requirements.
The usage analytics and spend tracking sections below apply when users sign in with their Claude accounts directly. When connecting through a third-party platform such as Amazon Bedrock, Google Cloud Vertex AI, Azure AI Foundry, or an LLM gateway, usage and spend are tracked through your cloud provider’s billing console and your gateway’s logging instead.

​
Usage analytics

Pull Claude for M365 usage into your own BI or reporting pipeline through the Claude Enterprise Analytics API. The API exposes per-user, per-surface, and per-organization aggregates. See Claude Enterprise Analytics API reference guide for endpoints, request shapes, and aggregation windows.

​
Spend tracking

Download CSV exports of Team and Enterprise plan usage from the usage analytics dashboard in your admin console. Exports include per-seat and per-surface spend, making them suitable for chargeback and financial reconciliation. See View usage analytics for Team and Enterprise plans for the steps to generate and download a report. The pages below cover deployment paths and plugins relevant to enterprise admins.
