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?503 UnknownError for all /sites calls
Every call I make to one of the /sites/ endpoints gives me a 503 UnknownError response. The prime example of this is the inability to do a GET request to /sites/root. I have ensured that my API has all six site permissions (set as application permissions) and have given Admin consent for the organization. I have even done further testing to see if this is an issue strictly with the /sites endpoint. If I leave all functions, headers, access token, etc. exactly the same and simply change the endpoint from /sites/root to /users or /groups, the call works exactly as intended. This 503 error has now been happening on every call to the /sites/ endpoints for multiple days and even going over the weekend. This tells me it is not simply throttling which some resources have said it would be. After working with Microsoft support they informed me their trained to help with the M365 apps so I have now been directed to posting on here. Any insight into possible fixes whether it is an issue with my code or with some form of admin permissions would be greatly appreciated. I have exhausted most resources and have found many possible solutions, though none have actually fixed the issue.
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.
The requesting principal is not authorized to set group preferred data location
We have our tenant with 4 Geo locations. And inside power automate flow I am sending this Graph Api to create a new security group under specific Geo location:- but I am getting this error:- The requesting principal is not authorized to set group preferred data location. Now if i remove this parameter:- "preferredDataLocation": "AUS", the Office 365 group will get created under the default location, but I need to add it to the specific location. the service account running the graph Api call has SharePoint, group and teams admin permissions. any advice? ThanksFilters and Images/thumbnails with new Copilot Search
Did anyone else use the filters on the verticals before new Copilot Search and find it very frustrating with the new experience to only have Modified, Type, and Person as the filters? It makes your non-M365 connectors almost unsusable. Also losing the ability to add our custom icons and thumbnails is a big loss to the user experience. Anyone else?Share MS Teams recording with someone using Graph API
Hi, There is a requirement to share MS Teams recordings with the required Azure AD users using Graph API. We a Power Automate flow which runs after the meeting sessions end. The requirement is that all recordings related to the that session should be shared with specified users which many vary based on the session configuration. We have the meeting joining URL and also the meeting ID, long string and not the GUID. We have tried two approaches using the Graph API. 1) using the approach below we were able to get the meeting records https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/84e35ca5-0000-0000-0000-20ef90928402/onlineMeetings/MSo4NGUzNWNhNS02NjM3LTQ4NGEtYmE5MS0yMGVmOTA5MjgwertyMCoqMTk6bWVldGluZ19OR123TlRZMU0ySXRNRGMzT0MwMFl6SXdMVGhoT0RrdFpHTXlOak5pT0dOa05qVTBAdGhyZWFkLnYy/recordings but this approach is good if you want to get the recording content to copy it to another location, it does not return the OneDrive location. 2) using the following approach we can get the OneDrive path but there is no way to filter the recordings https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/drives/b!u_gscMc-uEeF2AgpET9lx123werdOz1Fg_KTQFlVLnYAXRY1W9IKQqzF7v234rW1/root:/Recordings:/children so it is not feasible By using the first approach, we can move the recording to SharePoint and share it from there but considering the recording size, we do not want to use this approach unless there is no other way. Let me know if there is any other way or if i am missing any thing.Graph API : Authorization_RequestDenied Message: Insufficient privileges to complete the operation.
Hi Team, I have a Graph app and user configured with the following resourceAccess scopes: Code "resourceAccess": [ { "id": "06da0dbc-49e2-44d2-8312-53f166ab848a", "type": "Scope" }, { "id": "9c7a330d-35b3-4aa1-963d-cb2b9f927841", "type": "Scope" }, { "id": "e1fe6dd8-ba31-4d61-89e7-88639da4683d", "type": "Scope" }, { "id": "b340eb25-3456-403f-be2f-af7a0d370277", "type": "Scope" } ] However, when trying to pull presence data, I receive the following error in Postman: Code StatusCode: Forbidden Message: Code: Authorization_RequestDenied Message: Insufficient privileges to complete the operation. Graph Explorer also fails to return presence for a specific user using: https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/users/{user-id}/presence But the endpoint for the signed-in user works fine: https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/me/presence Admin consent has been granted, and even the Global Admin cannot retrieve presence for other users. Other permissions work fine — the app can list users and connect without issue. Presence is the only operation failing. Question: How can I investigate this behavior in Azure/Entra using the request-id or client-request-id from the error response? Or what could cause this behavior? Thanks in advance!Can a Teams Channel name start with space?

Does Microsoft Graph API Throttle When Triggering More Than 200 On-Demand Remediation Calls?
Hi Everyone, I'm using the following Microsoft Graph API endpoint to trigger proactive remediation scripts on Intune-managed devices: POST https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/deviceManagement/managedDevices/{managedDeviceId}/initiateOnDemandProactiveRemediation My scenario involves triggering this API for around 200+ devices, each with multiple scripts. I have a few concerns and would appreciate some guidance: Are there any throttling limits specific to this endpoint or the Intune service that I should be aware of? If I send 200+ POST requests in a short time window, will I hit rate limits or receive 429 errors? What is the recommended approach to avoid throttling — should I batch requests, add delays, or implement retry logic? Is there any official documentation or best practices for handling bulk remediation triggers? I’ve reviewed the general Microsoft Graph throttling guidance and service-specific throttling limits, but I’m unsure how they apply to this specific endpoint. Any help, examples, or insights would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Swahela MullaQuery Regarding Duplicate Message IDs from Microsoft Graph API
Hello Microsoft Support Team, I am currently using the Microsoft Graph API to fetch email messages from the inbox of a my support email in my PHP application. However, I am encountering an issue where the API returns duplicate message IDs for emails. This is causing problems as emails with the same id are being processed multiple times, which results in duplicate ticket creation in my CRM system. To avoid this, I am currently checking and skipping duplicate IDs manually in my application. However, I would like to understand the root cause of these duplicates and whether there is an official recommendation or best practice to handle such cases effectively. Here are some additional details: API Endpoint: GET graph.microsoft.com/beta/users/$userEmailEncoded/mailFolders/Inbox/messages?\$top=20&\$orderby=receivedDateTime%20desc Issue: Duplicate message IDs (id) returned for the same email. Current Handling: I am skipping already processed emails using a tracking for message IDs to prevent duplicate ticket creation. Additionally, I have a few more queries regarding the use of internetMessageId and fetching attachments: Problem with internetMessageId: When I use internetMessageId, the internetMessageId of a replied message returns null. How can I use this ID effectively to manage or track message threads and replies? Attachments with internetMessageId: Is it possible to fetch attachments for a message using the internetMessageId? I am trying to retrieve attachments for a specific email using this ID, but I am not sure how to do this efficiently. Could you please advise on the following: Is there a recommended way to handle or filter out duplicate emails when fetching email data from the Graph API? Is there any mechanism in the API to ensure unique messages, especially when calling this endpoint frequently? How can I properly use internetMessageId for tracking message threads and replies, and why is it returning null for replied messages? Can I retrieve attachments using internetMessageId or is there another method for doing so? I would greatly appreciate any guidance or suggestions you can provide. Thank you for your time and assistance. Best regards, Krishna Adroja email address removed for privacy reasons
Issue with Downloading Teams Sticker via Graph API - HTTP 400 Bad Request
Hi all, I am encountering an issue when attempting to download a sticker from Microsoft Teams using the Graph API. Below are the details of my request and the problem I am facing: Issue Description: I am using the following API format to download a sticker: GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/teams/xxx/messages/yyy/hostedContents/zzz/$value The request returns an HTTP 400 Bad Request response. The error details are as follows: { "error": { "code": "BadRequest", "message": "Provided hosted content identifier is invalid." }} Upon decoding zzz part of the API request URL, I obtained the following information: id=,type=1,url=https://us-prod.asyncgw.teams.microsoft.com/v1/url/content?url=https%3a%2f%2fstatic.wixstatic.com%2fmedia%2f4b00a4_e293905cf80f4ba4853c80a0a98dd748~mv2.png From the decoded data, it appears that the id field is empty. I suspect that this might be the reason why I am receiving the HTTP 400 Bad Request response. Questions: Has anyone encountered a similar issue when attempting to download a hosted sticker from Teams via the Graph API? Is there a specific reason why the id field is empty in the decoded content information? How can I resolve this issue and successfully retrieve the sticker content? Any insights or guidance on resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your support. Best regards, Kein
The specified object was not found in the store., The process failed to get the correct properties.
Hi, I've set up a change notification using the Microsoft Graph API so that Microsoft sends webhook notifications to our server whenever a new email arrives in a specific mailbox. Each notification includes the ID of the new email. Our server then uses this ID to retrieve the email body via an HTTP GET request to Microsoft Graph. However, we've encountered a few instances where the server receives a error when attempting to retrieve the email. The error message is: Error Message: Exception: Microsoft.Graph.Models.ODataErrors.ODataError: The specified object was not found in the store., The process failed to get the correct properties. Has anyone experienced this before or have any insights into why this might be happening? Thanks!
users/{id}/authentication/methods generates many 429 errors.
Hi, In a large inventory script one of the lists it generates contains all registered MFA methods for all users ("users/$UserId/authentication/methods"). My environment has 10k users, querying the resource sequentially takes over an hour, so I made it multithreaded. I use 16 in my 20 core system, that brings it down to ~30 mins. In another function in the same inventory script uses multithreading too, it lists all group members of ~7500 groups using "groups/$GroupId/members" that only takes 2 min and 15 seconds. I played around with the number of cores, and barely get any 429's but still takes close to an hour. I tried consistencylevel "Eventual" in the header, but had no effect. Is this difference caused by an issue in the MSgraph backend? or is there something I can fix on my end to improve performance? Cheers, Sander
Change Teams Meeting Options (Who can bypass lobby) via Graph API
I would like to change the who can bypass lobby meeting options of teams meeting via power automate using graph api. So, I checked the meeting options via teams user interface like below first photo. Then I tried to apply this configuration on power automate via graph. So, I checked the documentation of Update Event for Teams meeting as recommended the link following: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/onlinemeeting-update?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http But there is not any options to restrict the user outside of my organization like the parameter "People in my organization" in the teams meeting options user interface for lobbybyPassSettings parameter. I checked how the lobbybypassSettings gets the value if the who can bypass lobby parameter has been set via teams meeting options user interface via powerautomate. It sets this parameter as "unknownFutureValue". But when I checked the documentation, Microsoft does't recommend this value to set.

Hello, I’m using MS Graph to integrate an application with SharePoint. I’ve already implemented all the necessary requirements to query files, create folders, upload files, and download them. However, I’m facing an issue and have tried different ways to resolve it, unfortunately without success. When I upload a file, it completes successfully—confirmed both by the API response and by visually checking SharePoint. However, when I query the file using the Search API (`https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/drives/" + IdDirectory + "/search(q='{" + FileName + ".pdf}')`), the response is empty. In some cases, the expected result does appear, but only after several minutes (around 15 to 20 minutes). While debugging my application, I’ve confirmed that the search parameters are correct. Has anyone else experienced this? And if so, was there a solution?Microsoft Graph API : Some attributes are null when filtering by signInActivity/lastSignInDateTime
