How to get manager property from user request

Request https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users ? $ select = id & $ expand = manager does not return any information about the manager! (same result using beta)

Is there a solution to get the manager navigation property using the chart API?

This scenario is currently not supported.

You will need to make more than one call to get the manager property.



1) Get a list of users: https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users

2) Get a manager for each user https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/f6672f23-134d-47a1-8da8-a0671f3cf3f3/manager

This seems to work fine on the beta endpoint. Try the following example in Graph Explorer https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/graph-explorer :

https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/users?$expand=manager


But some other queries don't work as expected, so be careful with select:

https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/users?$expand=manager($select=id,displayName)

This function ($ expand = manager) is currently only supported in / beta. We hope to include it in version 1.0 at the end of this calendar year.

Please use / beta to evaluate this new functionality and let us know your feedback.
