Using Find-MgGraphPermission cmdlet

The Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK application requires users to have domain knowledge of both the semantics and syntax of Microsoft Graph API permissions used to authorize access to the API. This cmdlet helps to answer the following questions:

  • How do I find the values to supply to the permission-related parameters of commands like New-MgApplication and other application and consent related commands?
  • What permissions are applicable to a certain domain, for example, application, directory? To use Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK to access Microsoft Graph, users must sign in to a Microsoft Entra application using the Connect-MgGraph command. Use the Find-MgGraphCommand to find which permissions to use for a specific cmdlet or API.

Currently, PowerShell commands and scripts have no way of validating user input that refers to permissions or providing an ‘auto-complete’ user experience to help users accurately supply input to commands. This also affects commands or scripts implemented with the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK itself.
