List sites

Namespace: microsoft.graph

List all available sites in an organization.

Specific filter criteria and query options are also supported and described below:

Filter statement	Select statement	Description
siteCollection/root ne null	siteCollection,webUrl	Lists all root-level site collections in the organization. Useful for discovering the home site for each geography.

In addition, you can use a $search query against the /sites collection to find sites matching given keywords. If you want to list all sites across all geographies, refer to getAllSites.

For more guidance about building applications that use site discovery for scanning purposes, see Best practices for discovering files and detecting changes at scale.

This API is available in the following national cloud deployments.
