Finding Graph API that return same site as SharePoint Admin Center

Question

Hi There,

We are eDiscovery company and wanting to provide functionality where Admin user can get all the share point APIs of the specified custodian.

We want Admin can get all the SharePoint sites of the specific custodians

We tried with two approaches

1. Share Points APIs API Count : https://{tenant-id}/_api/web/lists/getbytitle('DO_NOT_DELETE_SPLIST_TENANTADMIN_AGGREGATED_SITECOLLECTIONS')/itemcount
   Result : 1869 API Sites : https://{tenant-id}/_api/web/lists/getbytitle('DO_NOT_DELETE_SPLIST_TENANTADMIN_AGGREGATED_SITECOLLECTIONS')/items Result : List of sites pagination wise
2. Graph APIs
   API : https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites
3. App Permission as below :
4. Result : API does not return sites which we are getting from the SharePoint APIs

We refer Microsoft Documentation

We tried search option too for API : https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites?search=*

However we did not the same site count

Can you please assist us Site which we are currently seeing in SharePoint admin center those same sites we retrieve from Graph API

Hello @Casepoint Developer,

Thanks for reaching out!

I see that you are using /sites API in Graph explorer which uses a delegated permission type.

But, List sites API currently supports only Application permissions. Please refer the below screenshot. I suggest you try this API with application permissions.

Hope this helps.
