Create chat

Namespace: microsoft.graph

Important

APIs under the /beta version in Microsoft Graph are subject to change. Use of these APIs in production applications is not supported. To determine whether an API is available in v1.0, use the Version selector.

Create a new chat object.

Note: Only one one-on-one chat can exist between two members. If a one-on-one chat already exists, this operation will return the existing chat and not create a new one.

This API is available in the following national cloud deployments.

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)	Chat.Create	Chat.ReadWrite
Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Not supported.	Not supported.
Application	Chat.Create	Not available.
