    Returned only on $select. Supports $filter (eq, ne, not, ge, le, in, startsWith, and eq on null values).
    userPrincipalName String The user principal name (UPN) of the user. The UPN is an Internet-style sign-in name for the user based on the Internet standard RFC 822. By convention, this value should map to the user's email name. The general format is alias@domain, where the domain must be present in the tenant's collection of verified domains. This property is required when a user is created. The verified domains for the tenant can be accessed from the verifiedDomains property of organization.
    NOTE: This property can't contain accent characters. Only the following characters are allowed A - Z, a - z, 0 - 9, ' . - _ ! # ^ ~. For the complete list of allowed characters, see username policies.

    Returned by default. Supports $filter (eq, ne, not, ge, le, in, startsWith, endsWith) and $orderby.
    userType String A string value that can be used to classify user types in your directory. The possible values are Member and Guest.

    Returned only on $select. Supports $filter (eq, ne, not, in, and eq on null values). NOTE: For more information about the permissions for members and guests, see What are the default user permissions in Microsoft Entra ID?

    Tip

    Directory and schema extensions and their associated data are returned only on $select; Open extensions and their associated data are returned only on $expand.

    mail and proxyAddresses properties

    mail and proxyAddresses are both email-related properties. The proxyAddresses property is a collection of addresses only relevant to the Microsoft Exchange server. It's used to store a list of mail addresses for a user that are tied to a single mailbox. The mail property is used as the user's email address for various purposes including user sign-in and defines the primary proxy address.

    Both mail and proxyAddresses can be retrieved through the GET user API. You can update the mail via the Update user API, but can't update proxyAddresses through Microsoft Graph. When a user's mail property is updated, it triggers recalculation of proxyAddresses and the newly updated mail is set to be the primary proxy address, except in the following scenarios:

    1. If a user has a license that includes Microsoft Exchange, all their proxy addresses must belong to a verified domain on the tenant. Any that don't belong to verified domains are silently removed.
    2. A user's mail is NOT set to the primary proxy address if the user is a guest and the primary proxy address contains the guest's UPN string with #EXT#.
    3. A user's mail is NOT removed, even if they no longer have proxy addresses if the user is a guest.

    proxyAddresses are unique across directory objects (users, groups, and organizational contacts). If a user's mail property conflicts with one of the proxyAddresses of another object, an attempt to update the mail fails, and the proxyAddresses property isn't updated either.

    This section explains how the three age group properties (legalAgeGroupClassification, ageGroup, and consentProvidedForMinor) are used by Microsoft Entra administrators and enterprise application developers to meet age-related regulations:

    • The legalAgeGroupClassification property is read-only. It's used by enterprise application developers to ensure the correct handling of a user based on their legal age group. It's calculated based on the user's ageGroup and consentProvidedForMinor properties.
    • ageGroup and consentProvidedForMinor are optional properties used by Microsoft Entra administrators to help ensure the use of an account is handled correctly based on the age-related regulatory rules governing the user's country or region.

    For example: Cameron is the administrator of a directory for an elementary school in Holyport in the United Kingdom. At the beginning of the school year, he uses the admissions paperwork to obtain consent from the minor's parents based on the age-related regulations of the United Kingdom. The consent obtained from the parent allows the minor's account to be used by Holyport School and Microsoft apps. Cameron then creates all the accounts and sets ageGroup to minor and consentProvidedForMinor to granted. Applications used by his students are then able to suppress features that aren't suitable for minors.

    legalAgeGroupClassification values

    Member Description
    null Default value, no ageGroup is set for the user.
    MinorWithoutParentalConsent (Reserved for future use)
    MinorWithParentalConsent The user is considered a minor based on the age-related regulations of their country or region, and the administrator of the account obtained appropriate consent from a parent or guardian.
    Adult The user is considered an adult based on the age-related regulations of their country or region.
    NotAdult The user is from a country or region that has additional age-related regulations, such as the United States, United Kingdom, European Union, or South Korea, and the user's age is between a minor and an adult age (as stipulated based on country or region). Generally, this means that teenagers are considered as notAdult in regulated countries.
    MinorNoParentalConsentRequired The user is a minor but is from a country or region that has no age-related regulations.

    ageGroup values

    Member Description
    null Default value, no ageGroup is set for the user.
    Minor The user is considered a minor.
    NotAdult The user is from a country that has statutory regulations, such as the United States, United Kingdom, European Union, or South Korea, and the user's age is more than the upper limit of kid age (as per country) and less than lower limit of adult age (as stipulated based on country or region). So basically, teenagers are considered as notAdult in regulated countries.
    Adult The user should be treated as an adult.

    consentProvidedForMinor values

    Member Description
    null Default value, no consentProvidedForMinor is set for the user.
    Granted Consent is obtained for the user to have an account.
    Denied Consent isn't obtained for the user to have an account.
    NotRequired The user is from a location that doesn't require consent.
