List group transitive members

Namespace: microsoft.graph

Get a list of the group's members. A group can have different object types as members. For more information about supported member types for different groups, see Group membership.

This operation is transitive and returns a flat list of all nested members. An attempt to filter by an OData cast that represents an unsupported member type returns a 400 Bad Request error with the Request_UnsupportedQuery code.

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

Note: To list the members of a hidden membership group, the Member.Read.Hidden permission is required.

HTTP request

GET /groups/{id}/transitiveMembers

Optional query parameters

This method supports the OData query parameters to help customize the response, including $search, $count, $top, and $filter. You can use $search on the displayName and description properties. You can also filter the results on the OData type, such as microsoft.graph.user or microsoft.graph.group.

This API returns up to 100 member objects by default. The maximum page size that you can request through the $top query parameter is 999 objects.

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 a collection of directoryObject objects in the response body.

An attempt to filter by an OData cast that represents an unsupported member type returns a 400 Bad Request error with the Request_UnsupportedQuery code. For example, /groups/{id}}/transitiveMembers/microsoft.graph.group when the group is a Microsoft 365 group will return this error, because Microsoft 365 groups cannot have other groups as members.
