To begin tracking changes, you make a request by including the delta function on the servicePrincipal resource.
GET /servicePrincipals/deltaTracking changes incurs a round of one or more delta function calls. If you use any query parameter
(other than $deltatoken and $skiptoken), you must specify
it in the initial delta request. Microsoft Graph automatically encodes any specified parameters
into the token portion of the @odata.nextLink or @odata.deltaLink URL provided in the response.
You only need to specify any desired query parameters once upfront.
In subsequent requests, copy and apply the @odata.nextLink or @odata.deltaLink URL from the previous response, as that URL already
includes the encoded, desired parameters.
| Query parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| $deltatoken | string | A state token returned in the @odata.deltaLink URL of the previous delta function call for the same resource collection, indicating the completion of that round of change tracking. Save and apply the entire @odata.deltaLink URL including this token in the first request of the next round of change tracking for that collection. |
| $skiptoken | string | A state token returned in the @odata.nextLink URL of the previous delta function call, indicating there are further changes to be tracked in the same resource collection. |
This method supports OData query parameters to help customize the response.
-
You can use a
$selectquery parameter as in any GET request to specify only the properties your need for best performance. The id property is always returned. -
There's limited support for
$filter:- The only supported
$filterexpression is for tracking changes for specific resources, by their ID:$filter=id+eq+{value}or$filter=id+eq+{value1}+or+id+eq+{value2}. The number of IDs you can specify is limited by the maximum URL length.
- The only supported
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Authorization | Bearer {token}. Required. Learn more about authentication and authorization. |
Don't supply a request body for this method.
If successful, this method returns a 200 OK response code and servicePrincipal collection object in the response body. The response also includes a nextLink URL or a deltaLink URL.
-
If a
@odata.nextLinkURL is returned, there are more pages of data to be retrieved in the session. The application continues making requests by using the@odata.nextLinkURL until a@odata.deltaLinkURL is included in the response. -
If a
@odata.deltaLinkURL is returned, there's no more data about the existing state of the resource to be returned. Persist and use the@odata.deltaLinkURL to learn about changes to the resource in the future.

- Using Delta Query for more details
