Deleted security groups return "securityEnabled": false, appear as ‘unrecognized’ in Entra admin
When retrieving the list of soft-deleted groups with Graph, both M365 groups and security groups are returned. However, the securityEnabled flag is returned as false for security groups. Is this a bug? This likely leads to displaying them in the Entra admin center as 'Unrecognized' type.
Slow UI update for deleted events
I've built an integration that continuously syncs events between an external scheduling system and Exchange Online using Microsoft Graph. I'm observing a recurring issue when deleting calendar events via Graph: A DELETE request to Graph returns success (204 No Content). A subsequent GET /events/{id} returns 404, confirming the event is deleted server-side. However, the event continues to appear in the Outlook UI (both Outlook Web and desktop) for an extended period (sometimes hours), even after page reloads or app restarts. The odd behaviour The event is still displayed in the user interface for up to several hours The event persist through page reloads If the user clicks the event it opens briefly and immediately closes, the event disappears from the UI afterward. Additional details Delete endpoint: /users/{id}/events/{id} Graph response: 204 No Content Verified deletion via GET → 404 Reproduces in both Outlook Web and Outlook desktop Questions Is this a known Outlook client caching or calendar view indexing issue? Is there a way to force client reconciliation after deletes? Are there Graph or Exchange constraints around rapid create/update/delete cycles that could cause this UI inconsistency?
How to Retrieve Windows Edition (SKU) from managedDevices API
Hi everyone, I am working with the Microsoft Graph API endpoint /v1.0/deviceManagement/managedDevices to iterate through all devices in a tenant and collect operating system related information. For Windows devices, the operatingSystem field only returns "Windows". However, Windows has multiple editions such as Enterprise, Education, and Pro. For my use case, I need the specific Windows edition. Is it possible to retrieve this information using only the v1.0 endpoint, or is the beta endpoint /beta/deviceManagement/managedDevices/{managedDeviceId} required to get the SKU family? Thanks in advance for your help.Alias for Refinable Managed Property Not Working in Search Queries
Hi, The alias for the refinable managed property has worked as expected in sortProperties for the past year, but it has recently stopped working and now returns an error. Using the original managed property name (RefinableDateSingle01) continues to work as expected. The error is shown below, together with the trace ID. Unfortunately, we are unable to switch to using RefinableDateSingle01 in sortProperties as it does not meet our business requirements. We are currently facing challenges due to the large number of SharePoint sites, many of which we do not have permission to access. As a result, we can only confirm that the refinable managed property RefinableDateSingle01 and its associated alias are configured correctly on the SharePoint sites where we have full access. What is the root cause of this issue, and how can it be resolved? https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/search/query { "requests": [ { "entityTypes": [ "listItem" ], "query": { "queryString": "* AND SiteId:\"siteId\"" }, "from": 0, "size": 50, "sortProperties": [ { "name": "RefinableDateSingle01", // This works when I use the refinable managed property name (RefinableDateSingle01), but it does not work when I use the alias I defined for this property "isDescending": false } ] } ] } 500 Internal Server Error (When I used alias in sortProperties) { "error": { "code": "InternalServerError", "message": "The call failed, please try again.", "target": "", "details": [ { "code": "InternalServerError", "message": "The call failed, please try again.", "target": "", "details": [ { "code": "InternalServerError", "message": "The call failed, please try again.", "target": "", "details": [ { "code": "InternalServerError", "message": "The call failed, please try again.", "target": "", "details": [ { "code": "InternalServerError", "message": "The call failed, please try again.", "target": "", "details": [ { "code": "InternalServerError", "message": "The call failed, please try again.", "target": "", "details": [ { "code": "InternalServerError", "message": "The call failed, please try again.", "target": "", "details": [ { "code": "InternalServerError", "message": "The call failed, please try again.", "target": "", "details": [ { "code": "FanoutDownstreamContradiction", "message": "The call failed, please try again.", "target": "", "details": [ { "code": "TwoStepFanout_FirstStepFailed", "message": "The call failed, please try again.", "target": "", "serviceName": "Xap", "moduleName": "SubstrateSearch.FanoutV2.MultiDimensionSearchFanoutPluginV3", "contactTeam": "3sdri", "httpCode": 500 }, { "code": "FanoutDownstreamContradiction", "message": "The call failed, please try again.", "target": "", "serviceName": "FanoutService", "moduleName": "Fanout", "contactTeam": "3STenantSearchDevs", "httpCode": 500 } ], "serviceName": "FanoutService", "moduleName": "Fanout", "contactTeam": "3STenantSearchDevs", "httpCode": 500 } ], "moduleName": "SubstrateFanoutSearchWorkflow", "httpCode": 500 } ], "moduleName": "AscUserSearchFanoutWorkflowV2", "httpCode": 500 } ], "moduleName": "AscUserSearchFanoutWorkflowV2", "httpCode": 500 } ], "moduleName": "G21AscWorkflow", "httpCode": 500 } ], "moduleName": "TenantFileSearchFederationWorkflow_ASC", "httpCode": 500 } ], "moduleName": "TenantFileSearchFederationWorkflow", "httpCode": 500 } ], "moduleName": "FederationWorkflow", "httpCode": 500 } ], "moduleName": "TopLevelWorkflowBase", "httpCode": 500 }, "Instrumentation": { "TraceId": "57c005b9-07fc-453b-8c73-2650d90670e0" } }
Error while creating Graph API Access token
Hi guys, I am trying to create an access token for calling Graph API through browser. When I call 'https://login.microsoftonline.com/XXXX-XXXX-XXX-XXX-XXX/oauth2/token' api using AJAX, I receive below error.

Hi, our team has noticed that it’s not possible to retrieve analytics when querying a list of items using $expand. When we run this type of query, we don’t receive an error indicating that it’s not allowed; instead, the analytics property just returns null values. https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/<<SiteId>>/lists/<<ListID>>/items?$expand=fields,analytics($expand=allTime) However, when we query a single item, everything works as expected. https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/<<SiteId>>/lists/<<ListID>>/items/<<ListID>>/analytics/allTime Is there a way to retrieve analytics data for multiple items in one request?
Entra Conditional Access Issue
Hi Guys, Our Outlook add-in relies on the Graph API to fetch emails. Due to customer-side Conditional Access (CA) Policies, we are seeing critical failures where Continuous Access Evaluation (CAE) demands user interaction (InteractionRequired code) to resolve challenges like LocationConditionEvaluationSatisfied or TokenCreatedWithOutdatedPolicies. Since this authentication occurs backend-to-Entra, we lack a frontend mechanism to prompt the required user interaction. Is there a recommended pattern, method, or architectural change that allows our backend to redirect or challenge the user for interactive sign-in, thereby satisfying these CAE requirements and unblocking customers? Exact error messages: 1. Continuous access evaluation resulted in challenge with result: InteractionRequired and code: LocationConditionEvaluationSatisfied 2. Continuous access evaluation resulted in challenge with result: InteractionRequired and code: TokenCreatedWithOutdatedPolicies
Resource display name
I want to create an event using the Graph API with a meeting room location as a resource attendee. I'm adding the meeting room as a location and inviting the meeting room as a resource attendee as described here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/user-post-events?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=httpMy problem is that I only have the email of the meeting room, not the display name. So a second location ends up getting added once the meeting room accepts the invite that has the correct display name (but same email). If I later try and update the time for that event, the meeting room declines the update saying that "Two or more spaces cannot be booked at the same time". If I create the event by only inviting the meeting room as an attendee and leaving the location empty, the meeting room declines saying that "Spaces cannot be booked as attendees." Is there a way to create the event so that the initial events gets accepted and I am able to successfully update the time later? Or is there a way to get the display name of the meeting room so that I can add the location with the correct display name so that the event doesn't end up with two locations?
Slow download speed using GRAPH api
I wanted to start a little discussion because I can't find any information about my issue with download speed of GRAPH api. So Let's start with some information that I have a python app that connect to my One drive Business. I have there two folders with pdf's one is about 70k and one is 7k. I connect to them successfully. I know that this API has some limitation with the amount it can download on one request but still I think it is not fault but my and lack of knowledge. The biggest problem is when I use some search feature in my app that requires searching a specific file(it just freeze my whole app). I make all communication inside my python code and I don't see any room to further optimization. I will just mention that this is my first time working with API and clearly don't know where to ask for any help.
