Start synchronizationJob

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.

Start an existing synchronization job. If the job is in a paused state, it will continue processing changes from the point where it was paused. If the job is in quarantine, the quarantine status will be cleared. Do not create scripts to call the start job continuously while it's running because that can cause the service to stop running. Use the start job only when the job is currently paused or in quarantine.

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)	Directory.ReadWrite.All
Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Not supported.
Application	Application.ReadWrite.OwnedBy, Directory.ReadWrite.All
