    Hi @Harsha Vardhan Reddy,

    We could try to query the User Information list. You'll need to provide your user information list's guid and the Display name of the user. Please refer to the following sample

    https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/root/lists/{user info list guid}/items?$select=Fields&$filter=Fields/Title eq 'User Display name'&$expand=Fields
