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) Domain.Read.All Domain.ReadWrite.All
Delegated (personal Microsoft account) Not supported. Not supported.
Application Domain.Read.All Domain.ReadWrite.All

The work or school account needs to belong to at least the Domain Name Administrator or Global Reader Microsoft Entra role.

When an application queries a relationship that returns a directoryObject type collection, if it does not have permission to read a certain derived type (like device), members of that type are returned but with limited information. With this behavior, applications can request the least privileged permissions they need, rather than rely on the set of Directory.* permissions. For details, see Limited information returned for inaccessible member objects.
