I'd start with props.conf in that addon, specifically the stanza [ms:o365:management]. It doesn't look like they have a field alias set up for action, and that datamodel uses a calculated field to set "unknown" for any events that don't have an explicit "action" field or explicit "action" value.
As far as how to hunt this stuff down on your own, CIM usually leverages tag="some tag name" for its base search to pull events into a specific model. So normally, I look at tags.conf for the CIM datamodel I'm interested in, then look at the associated eventtype.conf that tags.conf pointed to. In this case, here's the eventtypes.conf:
[mso365_authentication]
search = sourcetype=ms:o365:management o365_audit_model_type=auth
tags = authentication
From there, just dig into the associated sourcetype in props for the same addon.
