Is it possible to use Office 365 REST API from flow?

Hello, I was wondering if you can use the HTTP REST step in Flow to create an Office 365 group? The Office 365 REST method is available but I'm not sure how to incoporate the authentication/beare...

Bart,

You can call a custom API from flow. I have a series of articles discussing Flow integration. (The piece you want is still being written, but I will publish that this week.)

You can create an Office 365 Group using the Microsoft Graph. See https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/docs/api-reference/v1.0/api/group_post_groups

Note that your API will require Group.ReadWrite.All permission, which must be consented by a global administrator.

Lastly, I wrote an article that covers the Groups API. The service moves pretty quickly, but most of the concepts still apply.

Cool, thanks Paul, I will try it out!

Do you know by any change if we can detect the creation of an O365 group? Is it possible to use webhooks to detect the creation of the site collection linked to an O365 group?
