Microsoft Graph API to check if a group exists in Azure AD

Question

Is there any Microsoft REST API to check if a specific SECURITY GROUP exists in Azure AD.

For Example , if i want to check a group "ABCD_Group" exists in Azure AD, what is the Microsoft Graph API for it ?

Answer 1

Hi @MS Techie – It seems there is no such direct API to check group existence in Azure AD.

You can try to retrieve Security Group using

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/groups?$filter=securityEnabled eq true

And then check for each group display name with your group name weather it exists or not in Azure AD as below
if(group.DisplayName.equals("ABCD_Group"))

Hope this will help you to get what you are looking for.
