Permissions differences between Azure AD Graph and Microsoft Graph
本文內容
This article is part of step 1: review API differences of the process to migrate apps .
The least privileged permission for a specific scenario might be different between Azure AD Graph and Microsoft Graph. When migrating your apps to call Microsoft Graph, analyze whether you also need to migrate to more narrowly scoped Microsoft Graph permissions to maintain least privilege.
For example, on Azure AD Graph, reading users in app-only scenarios requires the Directory.Read.All permission. This permission also allows your app to read all the groups, apps, and some policies in your tenant. However, on Microsoft Graph, reading users in app-only scenarios requires only the User.Read.All permission.
While the permission strings might be the same in both Azure AD Graph and Microsoft Graph, they have different identifiers. However, similar to Azure AD Graph, Microsoft Graph also exposes both application and delegated permissions. Administrator consent is always required for application permissions.
The article provides a mapping of Azure AD Graph to Microsoft Graph permissions to help you migrate your apps.
