Hello Team,

Could you please guide us on how to set graph api permissions to a user account on azure active directory. In every document we are finding to set graph api permissions on app registration/applications. So, Is there any way to set permissions on user account/service account?

    Hello @K Roja

    Thank you for reaching out. Ideally API permissions are granted to App Registrations at Delegated or Application level. However, if you are looking to assign/consent permissions for specific on user accounts then the easiest way to add Graph Permission on specific scope for user account would be to visit Graph Explorer and follow below steps:

    • Login to Graph Explorer.
    • Click on your profile button.
    • Select Consent to Permissions.
    • Search and Select permissions you are looking for.
    • Click on Consent.

    Please refer following screenshot for reference.
