synchronizationJob: validateCredentials

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.

Validate that the credentials are valid in the tenant.

This API is available in the following national cloud deployments.

Global service	US Government L4	US Government L5 (DOD)	China operated by 21Vianet
✅	✅	✅	❌

Permissions

Choose the permission or permissions marked as least privileged for this API. Use a higher privileged permission or permissions only if your app requires it. For details about delegated and application permissions, see Permission types. To learn more about these permissions, see the permissions reference.

Permission type	Least privileged permissions	Higher privileged permissions
Delegated (work or school account)	Synchronization.ReadWrite.All	Not available.
Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Not supported.	Not supported.
Application	Application.ReadWrite.OwnedBy	Synchronization.ReadWrite.All

To configure application provisioning or HR-driven provisioning, the calling user must also be assigned at least the Application Administrator or Cloud Application Administrator directory role.

To configure Microsoft Entra Cloud Sync, the calling user must also be assigned at least the Hybrid Identity Administrator directory role.

HTTP request

POST /servicePrincipals/{id}/synchronization/jobs/{id}/validateCredentials

Request headers

Name	Description
Authorization	Bearer {code}

Request body

In the request body, provide a JSON object with the following parameters.

Parameter	Type	Description
useSavedCredentials	Boolean	When true, the credentials parameter will be ignored and the previously saved credentials (if any) will be validated instead.
credentials	synchronizationSecretKeyStringValuePair collection	Credentials to validate. Ignored when the useSavedCredentials parameter is true.
templateId	String	Defines default settings for the provisioning configuration.

Response

If validation is successful, this method returns a 204, No Content response code. It doesn't return anything in the response body.
