Good evening, for about a week, through a small program that uses graph api, the addition / removal of users from distribution lists no longer works; do you have any idea why? I have many processes that use graph api and they never gave me problems; we thought it was a temporary problem, but after a week it still doesn't work (attached the error)

Hi @micheleariis,
It is not possible to add user via the Graph API to a distribution list.
Add members - Microsoft Graph v1.0 | Microsoft Docs
Removing people is however possible
Remove member - Microsoft Graph v1.0 | Microsoft Docs
Delete https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/groups/{group id}/members/{user id}
One of the option you could consider is to use the Exchange online PowerShell command.
Install-module ExchangeOnlineManagement
Import-Module ExchangeOnlineManagement
Connect-ExchangeOnline
Get-DistributionGroup
#Copy name of distribution list
Get-DistributionGroupMember -Identity "<DL name>"
Add-DistributionGroupMember -Identity "<DL name>" -Member "<email user>"
Kind regards,
Rene
