Hello, is there any way to tell if the signed account is a personal one or belongs to the category of Work/School through Graph APIs?

    Hi there, you can try checking for the userType field of the user resource as for work or school accounts, this will either be member or guest while the personal accounts doesn't have this field. I am may not be 100% the correct approach. You can also consider filling a feature request on Microsoft 365 Developer Platform
