Global service	US Government L4	US Government L5 (DOD)	China operated by 21Vianet
✅	✅	✅	✅

Permissions

Choose the permission or permissions marked as least privileged for this API. Use a higher privileged permission or permissions only if your app requires it. For details about delegated and application permissions, see Permission types. To learn more about these permissions, see the permissions reference.

Permission type	Least privileged permissions	Higher privileged permissions
Delegated (work or school account)	Application.Read.All	Application.ReadWrite.All, Directory.Read.All, Directory.ReadWrite.All
Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Application.Read.All	Application.ReadWrite.All
Application	Application.Read.All	Application.ReadWrite.OwnedBy, Application.ReadWrite.All, Directory.Read.All, Directory.ReadWrite.All

Important

In delegated scenarios with work or school accounts where the signed-in user is acting on another user, they must be assigned a supported Microsoft Entra role or a custom role with a supported role permission. The following least privileged roles are supported for this operation.

• A non-admin member or guest user with default user permissions
• Application Developer - read properties of application they own
• Directory Readers - read standard properties
• Global Secure Access Administrator - read standard properties
• Global Reader
• Directory Writers
• Hybrid Identity Administrator
• Security Administrator
• Cloud Application Administrator
• Application Administrator

HTTP request

You can address the application using either its id or appId. id and appId are referred to as the Object ID and Application (Client) ID, respectively, in app registrations in the Microsoft Entra admin center. Replace {applicationObjectId} with the id for the application object.

GET /applications/{applicationObjectId}
GET /applications(appId='{appId}')

Optional query parameters

This method supports the $select OData query parameter to retrieve specific application properties.

By default, this API doesn't return the public key value of the key in the keyCredential property unless keyCredentials is specified in a $select query. For example, $select=id,appId,keyCredentials.

The use of $select to get keyCredentials for applications has a throttling limit of 150 requests per minute for every tenant.

Request headers

Name	Description
Authorization	Bearer {token}. Required. Learn more about authentication and authorization.

Request body

Don't supply a request body for this method.

Response

If successful, this method returns a 200 OK response code and an application object in the response body.
