Articolo

Namespace: microsoft.graph

Important

APIs under the /beta version in Microsoft Graph are subject to change. Use of these APIs in production applications is not supported. To determine whether an API is available in v1.0, use the Version selector.

Create a new administrativeUnit.

This API is available in the following national cloud deployments.

Global service	US Government L4	US Government L5 (DOD)	China operated by 21Vianet
✅	✅	✅	✅

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)	AdministrativeUnit.ReadWrite.All	Not available.
Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Not supported.	Not supported.
Application	AdministrativeUnit.ReadWrite.All	Not available.

Important

In delegated scenarios with work or school accounts, the signed-in user must be a member user or be assigned a supported Microsoft Entra role or a custom role with a supported role permission. Privileged Role Administrator is the least privileged role supported for this operation.

HTTP request

POST /administrativeUnits
POST /directory/administrativeUnits

Request headers

Name	Description
Authorization	Bearer {token}. Required. Learn more about authentication and authorization.
Content-type	application/json. Required.

Request body

In the request body, supply a JSON representation of an administrativeUnit object.

You can specify the following properties when you create an administrativeUnit.

Property	Type	Description
description	String	Description for the administrative unit. Optional.
displayName	String	Display name for the administrative unit. Required.
isMemberManagementRestricted	Boolean	`true` if members of this administrative unit should be treated as sensitive, which requires specific permissions to manage. Default value is `false`. Use this property to define administrative units whose roles don't inherit from tenant-level administrators, and management of individual member objects is limited to administrators scoped to a restricted management administrative unit. Immutable, so can't be changed later. Optional.
membershipRule	String	The dynamic membership rule for the administrative unit. For more information about the rules you can use for dynamic administrative units and dynamic groups, see Manage rules for dynamic membership groups in Microsoft Entra ID. Optional.
membershipRuleProcessingState	String	Controls whether the dynamic membership rule is actively processed. Set to `On` to activate the dynamic membership rule, or `Paused` to stop updating membership dynamically. Optional.
membershipType	String	Indicates the membership type for the administrative unit. The possible values are: `dynamic`, `assigned`. If not set, the default value is `null` and the default behavior is assigned. Optional.
visibility	String	The visibility of the administrative unit. If not set, the default value is `null` and the default behavior is public. It can be set to `HiddenMembership` to hide the membership from nonmembers. Optional.

The administrativeUnit resource supports extensions, which allows you to use the POST operation to add custom properties with your own data when you create the administrative unit.

Response

If successful, this method returns a 201 Created response code and an administrativeUnit object in the response body.

Examples

Example 1: Create an administrative unit

The following example creates a new administrative unit with a dynamic membership rule to include all users whose country is United States.

Request

The following example shows a request.

POST https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/administrativeUnits
Content-type: application/json

{
    "displayName": "Seattle District Technical Schools",
    "description": "Seattle district technical schools administration",
    "membershipType": "Dynamic",
    "membershipRule": "(user.country -eq \"United States\")",
    "membershipRuleProcessingState": "On"
}


// Code snippets are only available for the latest version. Current version is 5.x

// Dependencies
using Microsoft.Graph.Beta.Models;

var requestBody = new AdministrativeUnit
{
	DisplayName = "Seattle District Technical Schools",
	Description = "Seattle district technical schools administration",
	MembershipType = "Dynamic",
	MembershipRule = "(user.country -eq \"United States\")",

};

// To initialize your graphClient, see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/sdks/create-client?from=snippets&tabs=csharp
var result = await graphClient.AdministrativeUnits.PostAsync(requestBody);

Important

Microsoft Graph SDKs use the v1.0 version of the API by default, and do not support all the types, properties, and APIs available in the beta version. For details about accessing the beta API with the SDK, see Use the Microsoft Graph SDKs with the beta API.

For details about how to add the SDK to your project and create an authProvider instance, see the SDK documentation.
