Remove application owner

Namespace: microsoft.graph

Remove an owner from an application. As a recommended best practice, apps should have at least two owners.

[!INCLUDE national-cloud-support]

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.

[!INCLUDE permissions-table]

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 least privileged roles are supported for this operation.

  • Hybrid Identity Administrator
  • Cloud Application Administrator
  • Application Administrator

HTTP request

You can address the application using either its id or appId. id and appId are referred to as the Object ID and Application (Client) ID, respectively, in app registrations in the Microsoft Entra admin center.

DELETE /applications/{id}/owners/{id}/$ref
DELETE /applications(appId='{appId}')/owners/{id}/$ref

Caution

If /$ref is not appended to the request and the calling app has permissions to manage the user who is the app owner, the user will also be deleted from Microsoft Entra ID; otherwise, a 403 Forbidden error is returned. You can restore deleted users through the Restore deleted items API.
