Restart synchronizationJob

Namespace: microsoft.graph

Important

APIs under the /beta version in Microsoft Graph are subject to change. Use of these APIs in production applications is not supported. To determine whether an API is available in v1.0, use the Version selector.

Restart a stopped synchronization job, forcing it to reprocess all the objects in the directory. Optionally clears existing the synchronization state and previous errors.

This API is available in the following national cloud deployments.

Global service	US Government L4	US Government L5 (DOD)	China operated by 21Vianet
✅	✅	✅	❌

Permissions

Choose the permission or permissions marked as least privileged for this API. Use a higher privileged permission or permissions only if your app requires it. For details about delegated and application permissions, see Permission types. To learn more about these permissions, see the permissions reference.

Permission type	Least privileged permissions	Higher privileged permissions
Delegated (work or school account)	Synchronization.ReadWrite.All	Not available.
Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Not supported.	Not supported.
Application	Application.ReadWrite.OwnedBy	Synchronization.ReadWrite.All

In delegated scenarios with work or school accounts, the signed-in user must be an owner or member of the group or be assigned a supported Microsoft Entra role or a custom role with a supported role permission. The following least privileged roles are supported for this operation.

• Application Administrator
• Cloud Application Administrator
• Hybrid Identity Administrator - to configure Microsoft Entra Cloud Sync

HTTP Request

{servicePrincipalId} refers to the id of the service principal object. id is referred to as the Object ID of the enterprise application in app registrations in the Microsoft Entra admin center.

You can address the service principal using either its id or appId. id and appId are referred to as the Object ID and Application (Client) ID, respectively, in app registrations in the Microsoft Entra admin center.

POST /servicePrincipals/{servicePrincipalId}/synchronization/jobs/{jobId}/restart
POST /servicePrincipals(appId='{appId}')/synchronization/jobs/{jobId}/restart

Request headers

Name	Type	Description
Authorization	string	Bearer {token}. Required. Learn more about authentication and authorization.

Request body

In the request body, provide a JSON object with the following parameter.

Parameter	Type	Description
criteria	synchronizationJobRestartCriteria	Restart criteria

Response

If successful, returns a 204 No Content response. It doesn't return anything in the response body.
