Delete an agentUser object.
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 permission | Higher privileged permissions |
|---|---|---|
| Delegated (work or school account) | AgentIdUser.ReadWrite.IdentityParentedBy | AgentIdUser.ReadWrite.All, User.DeleteRestore.All, User.ReadWrite.All |
| Delegated (personal Microsoft account) | Not supported. | Not supported. |
| Application | AgentIdUser.ReadWrite.IdentityParentedBy | AgentIdUser.ReadWrite.All, User.DeleteRestore.All, User.ReadWrite.All |
Important
The calling user must be assigned at least one of the following Microsoft Entra roles:
- User Administrator
- Privileged Authentication Administrator
- Agent ID Administrator
To delete users with privileged administrator roles in delegated scenarios, the app must be assigned the Directory.AccessAsUser.All delegated permission, and the calling user must have a higher privileged administrator role as indicated in Who can perform sensitive actions.
In app-only scenarios, the User.ReadWrite.All application permission isn't enough privilege to delete users with privileged administrative roles. The agent must be assigned a higher privileged administrator role as indicated in Who can perform sensitive actions.
DELETE /users/microsoft.graph.agentUser/{userId}Note: An agent user can be deleted through the standard users' endpoint as well: DELETE /users/userId. No special odata type needs to be specified in the request.
