I am successfully able to make HTTP request to azure active directory, but how do I retrieve an AAD group details?

Question

Hello,

I am successfully able to make HTTP request to azure active directory, but how do I retrieve an AAD group details?

I am trying to add a member to an AAD group and for that I was making HTTP request, and as you can see - I am getting 200 code which indicates success. However, how do I add the member to the group or retrieve who all are part of the group?

Would really appreciate if anyone could help me with this.

Regards

You can use graph explorer to make a HTTP request to Azure AD and also to add a member to a group.

Follow below steps to do the same,

• Got to URL https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/graph-explorer
• Click on sign-in button on the top right corner.
• Enter the global admin credentials.
• Now to add user to group you can enter below query.
• Send POST request to https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/groups/{group-id}/members/$ref

And in the body below enter as below,

Content-type: application/json

{
  "@odata.id": "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/directoryObjects/{id}"
}

"group-id" in the POST query is object ID of a group. and "id" is the object of the member you want to add to the group.

Below is the screen shot of above task.

Let me know if you have any further questions on this.
