Not sure if this resource should be implemented. It is misusing M365DSC to retrieve information from M365. M365DSC is meant to manage M365 using Configuration-as-Code practices.

The resource should have at least one Key parameter. This is currently causing failing QA tests.

If this is the minimum property set, shouldn't all properties be mandatory??

The DisplayName is Mandatory in the code. That means that this property should either be Required or Key in the schema.

Please add a description to each property. We are using that to generate documentation.

This looks very strange. You are now trying to use DSC to retrieve information from M365. That is not what DSC is meant for.
@NikCharlebois, @andikrueger, what is your opinion on this implementation?

@ykuijs, I have inherited this PR. The customer who initiated the PR uses the mailbox statistic data to control the flow of a restore. Right, a resource that only reads data is not the primary goal of but there are examples that follow a similar pattern like PendingReboot.
If you are supporting the idea in general I will make the requested code changes.

PendingReboot actually changes something, it updates the $global:DSCMachineStatus variable.
I am leaning towards a feeling that M365DSC isn't the correct place for just retrieving information, especially for information that can be a very large data set (for environments that have large amounts of mailboxes, which can be the case quickly).
@NikCharlebois, what is your opinion on this resource?
(Responses might be a little delayed, since Nik is off at the moment)

I would not implement this kind of change even though it is tempting to have the additional information in the exported data. #4375 describes a similar ask for a read-only property.
