Important

In delegated scenarios with work or school accounts, the signed-in user 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:

  • Directory Synchronization Accounts - for Microsoft Entra Connect and Microsoft Entra Cloud Sync services
  • Directory Writer
  • Hybrid Identity Administrator
  • Identity Governance Administrator
  • Privileged Role Administrator
  • User Administrator
  • Application Administrator
  • Cloud Application Administrator

HTTP request

You can address the service principal 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.

DELETE /servicePrincipals/{id}/appRoleAssignedTo/{appRoleAssignment-id}
DELETE /servicePrincipals(appId='{appId}')/appRoleAssignedTo/{appRoleAssignment-id}

Note

As a best practice, we recommend you use this method to delete app role assignments, instead of the Delete appRoleAssignments method which deletes through the appRoleAssignments relationship of the assigned user, group, or service principal.
