Microsoft Graph Application - Get Planner Task Permissions

Question

Hi,

I'm aiming to make an application that gets and lists our Microsoft Planner Tasks.

Looking at the "Get Planner Task" source here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/plannertask-get?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http it states that the permissions under "Application" are "Not Supported"

I can see on Stack Overflow users have granted just granted the "Group.ReadWrite.All" as a workaround. What would be the least privileged permission I could use for this?

Note: I only need to get and read the planner and it's associated tasks, I don't need to perform any modifications to the tasks.

Answer 1

Of course, it currently does not support application permissions. The least privileged permission to call this api is the Tasks.Read delegated permission. You can grant this permission for your application and grant the administrator's consent, and then you need to use the auth code flow based on user interaction login to obtain the token.
