List group owners

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.

Retrieve a list of the group's owners. The owners are a set of users who are allowed to modify the group object. Owners are currently not available in Microsoft Graph for groups that were created in Exchange, distribution groups, or groups that are synchronized from an on-premises environment.

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

In delegated scenarios, the signed-in user must also be assigned a supported Microsoft Entra role or a custom role with the microsoft.directory/groups/owners/read role permission. The following least privileged roles are supported for this operation:

  • Group owners
  • "Member" users
  • "Guest" users - have limited read permissions
  • Directory Readers
  • Directory Writers
  • Groups Administrator
  • User Administrator
  • Exchange Administrator - for Microsoft 365 groups only
  • SharePoint Administrator - for Microsoft 365 groups only
  • Teams Administrator - for Microsoft 365 groups only
  • Yammer Administrator - for Microsoft 365 groups only
  • Intune Administrator - for security groups only
