Hi @MyAzQuery

No, the Microsoft Graph API does not support user/group modifications in on-premises Active Directory, it is currently only available for Azure AD. The only way to update on-premises users or groups is to use the System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement API or a similar tool that can directly access the on-premises AD.

See similar question thread.

Hope this helps.

Hi @MyAzQuery

All API endpoints are currently cloud-based. For on-premises AD, it can only be managed by code through the System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement .NET namespace.
