Using Azure Graph API to get user details by Id, but the "Email Addresses" attribute (StringCollection) is always missing in the response

Question

I am using the Azure Graph API to retrieve user details by their Id. However, I am encountering an issue where I am unable to obtain the value of the "Email Addresses" attribute, which is of the StringCollection data type.

Despite successfully retrieving other user attributes, the "Email Addresses" field consistently missing from the response.

How to properly retrieve the "Email Addresses" attribute using the Azure Graph API? If there are specific query parameters or configurations required, kindly provide detailed instructions.

Ideally you should be able to pull those attributes as defined in the documentation here - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/user-get?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http

The correct way is to get users using this query and you can check the Mail Attribute- GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/87d349ed-44d7-43e1-9a83-5f2406dee5bd
