List group transitive memberOf

Namespace: microsoft.graph

Get groups that the group is a member of. This operation is transitive and will also include all groups that this group is a nested member of. Unlike getting a user's Microsoft 365 groups, this returns all types of groups, not just Microsoft 365 groups.

This API is available in the following national cloud deployments.

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) GroupMember.Read.All Directory.Read.All, Directory.ReadWrite.All, Group.Read.All
Delegated (personal Microsoft account) Not supported. Not supported.
Application Directory.Read.All Directory.ReadWrite.All

Important

When an application queries a relationship that returns a directoryObject type collection, if it doesn't have permission to read a certain resource type, members of that type are returned but with limited information. For example, only the @odata.type property for the object type and the id is returned, while other properties are indicated as null. With this behavior, applications can request the least privileged permissions they need, rather than rely on the set of Directory.* permissions. For details, see Limited information returned for inaccessible member objects.

HTTP request

GET /groups/{id}/transitiveMemberOf

Optional query parameters

This method supports the $count, $expand, $filter, $orderby, $search, $select, and $top OData query parameters to help customize the response. OData cast is also enabled, for example, you can cast to get just the transitive group members of a group. The default and maximum page sizes are 100 and 999 group 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.

Request headers

Name Description
Authorization Bearer {token}. Required. Learn more about authentication and authorization.
ConsistencyLevel eventual. This header and $count are required when using the $search, $filter, $orderby, or OData cast query parameters. It uses an index that might not be up-to-date with recent changes to the object.

Request body

Don't supply a request body for this method.

Response

If successful, this method returns a 200 OK response code and collection of directoryObject objects in the response body.
