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.

Get groups that this organizational contact is a member of. The API request is transitive, and returns all groups the organizational contact is a nested member of.

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)	OrgContact.Read.All and Group.Read.All	Directory.Read.All
Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Not supported.	Not supported.
Application	OrgContact.Read.All and Group.Read.All	Directory.Read.All

Important

In delegated scenarios with work or school accounts, the signed-in user must be assigned a supported Microsoft Entra role or a custom role with a supported role permission. The following least privileged roles are supported for this operation.

Directory Readers
Global Reader
Directory Writers
Intune Administrator
User Administrator

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 /contacts/{id}/transitiveMemberOf

Optional query parameters

This method supports the OData query parameters to help customize the response, including $select, $search, $count, and $filter. OData cast is also enabled, for example, you can cast to get just the groups the contact is a member of. You can use $search on the displayName property. The default and maximum page sizes are 100 and 999 objects respectively.

Request headers

Header	Value
Authorization	Bearer {token}. Required. Learn more about authentication and authorization.
Accept	application/json

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.

Example

Request

The following example shows a request.

GET https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/contacts/e63333f5-3d11-4026-8fe3-c0f7b044dd3a/transitiveMemberOf

var result = await graphClient.Contacts["{orgContact-id}"].TransitiveMemberOf.GetAsync();

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.
