How to get all sites with Microsoft Graph API Explorer?

Question

I'm testing the API with the Graph Explorer on https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/graph-explorer

I logged in with my global admin account, grant the required permissions

However, when I ran the GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/getAllSites

I received the 403 response

{
    "error": {
        "code": "accessDenied",
        "message": "Access denied",
        "innerError": {
            "date": "2023-12-11T04:51:03",
            "request-id": "ee30d13f-5558-4803-8b83-7240c7479f7d",
            "client-request-id": "d0fdc3cd-3773-b974-6c26-7d72e0de1ff1"
        }
    }
}

The same thing happened when I use Postman with the same access token. What other permissions do I need to run this query?

Hi @Jack Le

As of a few months ago, this endpoint still did not support delegated permissions, but I noticed that Microsoft recently removed this description, not sure if it has been fixed now.

As a solution, you can try running the following API in Graph Explorer, it can help you list all sites.

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites?search=*

Hope this helps.
