    }
  ]
}

Example 2: Get only a count of organizational contacts

Request

The following is an example of the request. This request requires the ConsistencyLevel header set to eventual because $count is in the request. For more information about the use of ConsistencyLevel and $count, see Advanced query capabilities on Azure AD directory objects.

Note: The $count and $search query parameters are currently not available in Azure AD B2C tenants.

GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/contacts/$count
ConsistencyLevel: eventual

Response

The following is an example of the response.

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-type: text/plain

893

Example 3: Use $filter and $top to get one organizational contact with a display name that starts with 'a' including a count of returned objects

Request

The following is an example of the request. This request requires the ConsistencyLevel header set to eventual and the $count=true query string because the request has both the $orderBy and $filter query parameters. For more information about the use of ConsistencyLevel and $count, see Advanced query capabilities on Azure AD directory objects.

Note: The $count and $search query parameters are currently not available in Azure AD B2C tenants.

HTTP

GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/contacts?$filter=startswith(displayName,'A')&$count=true&$top=1&$orderby=displayName
