Namespace: microsoft.graph

Important

APIs under the /beta version in Microsoft Graph are subject to change. Use of these APIs in production applications is not supported. To determine whether an API is available in v1.0, use the Version selector.

Retrieve the list of channels in this team.

Permissions

One of the following permissions is required to call this API. To learn more, including how to choose permissions, see Permissions.

Permission type	Permissions (from least to most privileged)
Delegated (work or school account)	Channel.ReadBasic.All, ChannelSettings.Read.All, ChannelSettings.ReadWrite.All, Group.Read.All, Group.ReadWrite.All, Directory.Read.All, Directory.ReadWrite.All
Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Not supported.
Application	ChannelSettings.Read.Group, ChannelSettings.ReadWrite.Group, Channel.ReadBasic.All, ChannelSettings.Read.All, ChannelSettings.ReadWrite.All, Group.Read.All, Group.ReadWrite.All, Directory.Read.All, Directory.ReadWrite.All

Note:

Permissions marked with * use resource-specific consent.

Permissions marked with ** are supported only for backward compatibility. We recommend that you update your solutions to use an alternative permission listed in the previous table and avoid using these permissions going forward.

Note: This API supports admin permissions. Global admins and Microsoft Teams service admins can access teams that they are not a member of.

HTTP request

GET /teams/{team-id}/channels

Optional query parameters

This method supports the $filter, $select, and $expand OData query parameters to help customize the response.

Use $select for better performance

Populating the email and moderationSettings properties for a channel is an expensive operation that results in slow performance. Use $select to exclude the email and moderationSettings properties to improve performance.

Request headers

Header	Value
Authorization	Bearer {token}. Required.

Request body

Do not supply a request body for this method.

Response

If successful, this method returns a 200 OK response code and collection of Channel objects in the response body.

Examples

Example 1: List all channels

Request

The following example shows a request to list all channels.

GET https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/teams/893075dd-2487-4122-925f-022c42e20265/channels


GraphServiceClient graphClient = new GraphServiceClient( authProvider );

var channels = await graphClient.Teams["{team-id}"].Channels
	.Request()
	.GetAsync();

Important

Microsoft Graph SDKs use the v1.0 version of the API by default, and do not support all the types, properties, and APIs available in the beta version. For details about accessing the beta API with the SDK, see Use the Microsoft Graph SDKs with the beta API.

For details about how to add the SDK to your project and create an authProvider instance, see the SDK documentation.
