List customSecurityAttributeDefinitions

Article
2024-10-24

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 a list of the customSecurityAttributeDefinition objects and their properties.

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)	CustomSecAttributeDefinition.Read.All	CustomSecAttributeDefinition.ReadWrite.All
Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Not supported.	Not supported.
Application	CustomSecAttributeDefinition.Read.All	CustomSecAttributeDefinition.ReadWrite.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 privileged roles are supported for this operation.

Attribute Definition Reader
Attribute Assignment Administrator
Attribute Definition Administrator

By default, Global Administrator and other administrator roles do not have permissions to read, define, or assign custom security attributes.

HTTP request

GET /directory/customSecurityAttributeDefinitions

Optional query parameters

This method supports the $select, $top, $expand, and $filter (eq) OData query parameters to help customize the response. For general information, see OData query parameters.

The allowedValues navigation property is not returned or expanded by default and must be specified in an $expand query. For example, /directory/customSecurityAttributeDefinitions?$expand=allowedValues.

Request headers

Name	Description
Authorization	Bearer {token}. Required. Learn more about authentication and authorization.

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 customSecurityAttributeDefinition objects in the response body.

Examples

Example 1: Get all custom security attributes

The following example gets all custom security attribute definitions in a tenant.

Request

The following example shows a request.

GET https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/directory/customSecurityAttributeDefinitions

// To initialize your graphClient, see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/sdks/create-client?from=snippets&tabs=csharp
var result = await graphClient.Directory.CustomSecurityAttributeDefinitions.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.
