Hello Diya Deshika M N,

Thank you for contacting Q&A Forum.

Please note Graph API only returns part of user properties when you are using v1.0 version. You can kindly switch to beta version to query all properties:

Reference https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/users/{UserID}

Or you can also use v1.0 while selecting specific properties you need:

Reference https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/{UserID}?$select=employeeHireDate,employeeType,employeeOrgData

Some screenshots would be great.

Kindly let me know if this work for you and please let me know if you have any further questions.

If I have answered your question, please accept this answer as a token of appreciation and don't forget to give a thumbs up for "Was it helpful" and "Accept the anser"!

Best regards,
