• You must authorize the necessary permissions (Group.Read.All) in the API access page. To check, go to your SharePoint Admin Center > Advanced > API access.

• You must have your group’s Group ID. Go to How to Get Your SharePoint Group ID to learn how to find it.

Step 4: Connect to Microsoft Graph API

A Use Case Parameters section will appear, requiring you to enter a Group ID. Add your [1] Group Id in the field provided and click [2] Apply Parameters:

You can map any property you want. In our case, we used the following properties:

1. #displayName in the Title field - shows the name of the members as the titles.
2. #email in the Subtitle field - shows the email of the members as the subtitles.
3. #profileImage in the Image field - shows the members’ profile photos.
