Issue when tryng to get custom security attributes from Powershell, works with Azure AD

Question

Hi,

I have an issue when I try to use custom security attributes.
I created my attribute set with 2 attributes into it.
When i affect one of these attribute on someone with a predefined value, i can see this value on the Azure AD portal.
When I try to get this information using PowerShell I am not able to see anything.
Do you have any idea from where this issue can be ?
Thanks,
Anthony

Hello @CADET Anthony

Thank you for reaching out. You can view Custom Security Attributes assigned to user using following ways:

Azure Portal

• Navigate to Users and select the user.
• Select the Custom security attributes (preview) blade.

PowerShell

• First, place the objectId of the user into the $userId object..
• Then view the customSecurityAttributes on that user.
• Next, save the customSecurityAttributes of that user to and object called $userCSA.
• Finally, view the AdditionalProperties of the customSecurityAttributes for the user. Connect-MgGraph
Select-MgProfile -Name beta
$userId = 'ObjectId_of_user>'
Get-MgUser -UserId $userId -Property "customSecurityAttributes" | select -ExpandProperty customSecurityAttributes | fl
$userCSA = Get-MgUser -UserId $userId -Property "customSecurityAttributes"
$userCSA.CustomSecurityAttributes.AdditionalProperties | fl

Microsoft Graph API

URI: https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/users/<id>?$select=customSecurityAttributes

The response will look like this if there are no custom security attributes assigned to the user:

For more details you can review following document: Assign, update, list, or remove custom security attributes using the Microsoft Graph API (preview)

I hope this helps.
