Microsoft Graph - Retrieve admin details after granting consent?

Hello,

I'm currently using the client_credentials flow to get consent for my application.
But since this only allows me to use endpoints with application permission, I can't use the /me endpoint to retrieve the user that granted the consent.

Is there any other way to get the details (email, name, etc.) of the admin that granted the consent? Even if it means making multiple other requests?

    Hi @Wilson Song

    If you are using the unattended client credential flow then you will not be able to get the logged in admin details. Unless you know your administrator's user id, then call /users/{user id} endpoint.
