When calling this API using tokens issued for a personal Microsoft account, it will return the apps owned by the personal Microsoft account. The notion of organizations doesn't exist for personal Microsoft accounts. To list applications owned by a specific personal Microsoft account, this API requires the User.Read permission in addition to Application.Read.All or Application.ReadWrite.All.

This API is available in the following national cloud deployments.

HTTP request

GET /applications

Optional query parameters

This method supports the $count, $expand, $filter, $orderby, $search, $select, and $top OData query parameters to help customize the response. Some relationships also support $filter. The default and maximum page sizes are 100 and 999 application objects respectively. Some queries are supported only when you use the ConsistencyLevel header set to eventual and $count. For more information, see Advanced query capabilities on directory objects.

By default, this API doesn't return the value of the key in the keyCredentials property when listing all applications. To retrieve the public key info in key, the keyCredentials property must be 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

ConsistencyLevel eventual. This header and $count are required when using $search, or in specific usage of $filter. For more information about the use of ConsistencyLevel and $count, see Advanced query capabilities on directory objects.
