I am trying to add users to the AD Group via MS Graph API using application permission, and can't give GroupMamber.ReadwriteAll permission as this will allow app registration to add people to any group which is a security concern. My app registration is the owner of the AAD group.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks.
Please note that, to add users to the Azure AD Group via MS Graph API, you must have one of the below permissions as mentioned in this MsDoc.
Without having at least one of the above permissions, you cannot add users to the Azure AD group.
I assigned the app as owner of the group like below:
I tried to add users to the Azure AD group without granting any of the above permissions and got the error like below:
After granting the required permission, I was able to add the user to Azure AD group successfully like below:

I've registered a single application in Azure AD for the following reasons.
Azure AD SSO (From Any Azure AD directory)
Read users, groups, and their members
Provided following permissions and granted admin consent.
NOTE: We still depend on some of the Azure AD Graph API. So, we have added the legacy API permissions.
I can able to contact the Azure AD using REST API and get the user, groups and other information.
When I try to sign in to the application from any other directory, I'm getting the following consent screen. I can able to provide the consent and proceed to log in.
But, when I try to login into the same directory, I'm not getting the consent screen even when I logged in with the Azure AD admin. Stuck in the following screen.
When I register separate applications for SSO and REST APIs, this issue doesn't occur.
I would like to know why I'm stuck in the above screen when combining both SSO and REST API permissions.
• Please check whether the correct Azure AD roles have been assigned to your account ID, i.e., Global Administrator, Cloud Application Administrator, Application Administrator, or owner of the app object through the as one of these is needed for you to access the application. Also, ensure that you have assigned your account ID the correct app role assignment for the admin consent to be allowed during the SSO signup process as below: -
You can check the app role assignments for your account ID through the Enterprise application blade and searching your application there, then opening it and selecting the users and groups blade, check the app role assignment that your account ID has to that application while also, giving ‘Azure Service Management’ api permissions for user_impersonification as below, thus ensuring that you account ID will be having correct API permissions.
Once, the above settings are configured correctly, you should be able to access the application through your admin credentials.
We are trying to get list of users from a particular group in Azure Active Directory.
Steps tried:
Created new app registration
Created client secrets
Gave permissions for Graph API (application permissions) with admin consent.
Then we are getting all the users from all the groups.
Is there any way to restrict the app to only be able to return a specific group's users?
For application permissions, the effective permissions of your app are the full level of privileges implied by the permission. For example, an app that has the User.ReadWrite.All application permission can update the profile of every user in the organization, see here.
You could get the users in particular group with List members API, but the application still has the permissions for all groups.
GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/groups/{group-id}/members
So far, it's only supported to control mailbox access of an app with ApplicationAccessPolicy.
my purpose is to get permissions for a given user. In particular, I'd like to get whether he can create/delete users and groups in the Azure AD.
Is there a way to get this information using some Graph APIs or C# classes?
You can call List memberOf api to get the information of the Azure AD user role, and then determine whether the user has the permission to create/delete users and groups based on the role.
GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/{id}/memberOf
You can try to use Graph Explorer to test:
I'm a user of a Azure DevOps organization with Basic access along with Project Access Administrator group membership
But when I try to add a user at organization level it gives me a error
You are a Guest in the connected Azure AD and Guests may not be able
to search users in the the Azure AD. Please contact your Azure AD
admin to make you a member of the connected Azure AD to enable
searching for users.
Could someone please help me on this?
I'm a AAD member and also the user whom I'm trying to add is also AAD Member not sure why it is telling that I'm a guest user.
I created an application registered in Application registration portal and granted the admin consent there. As a user from our Azure AD, I can use my web app to read e.g. groups I have been assigned to in AD.
But when I invite a MS user to our AD (he becomes a Guest user there) the user can sign in into the application but he cannot read the groups (used the same method like the internal user). I always get an error: "Authorization_RequestDenied Insufficient privileges to complete the operation."
Is there a way to get it work? I have tried to browse through the Azure portal to check permissions or whatever but nothing helped so far.
Actually, for both AAD Graph API and Microsoft graph api , you cannot use a MS account guest user to read the groups data like a member in that tenant.
Even you can set guest user permissions with no limitation, but you still cannot get the data of a group in that tenant. This is because that MS Account is not a member of that tanant. So, it cannot specify a tenant to query.
I suggest you can use/create a member in your tenant to achieve this.
