Use the Edge API in Microsoft Graph (preview)
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.
The Edge API in Microsoft Graph lets apps manage administrator tasks for organizations. With proper authorization, an app can get access to an organization's browser site lists for Internet Explorer (IE) mode that reside in the cloud, allowing administrators to manage the same data available in the Microsoft 365 admin center. After configuring the appropriate permissions, your app can create browser site lists, add browser sites and shared cookies, and publish the site lists for Microsoft Edge to download.
Authorization
To call the Edge API in Microsoft Graph, your app needs to acquire an access token. For details about access tokens, see Get access tokens to call Microsoft Graph. Your app also needs the appropriate permissions. For more information, see Browser management permissions.
