Microsoft-graph-docs: Resource does not exist or one of its queried reference-property objects are not present.

[Norrch2]

Hello,

When I am calling the endpoint /applications/{application.id} I am getting an error message that the Resource does not exist or one of its queried reference-property objects are not present.

I have verified the URL and GET Method are correct. I have also verified the application ID is correct.

Can this document elaborate on what the reference-property is and what the request is looking for?

[jthake-msft]

can you provide your exact request you are making here and include the response with the request-id please?

[Norrch2]

Sure @jthake-msft ,

here is my request:

 https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/applications/a021c516-a1c9-4446-9ef7-1acc625c76e6

Here is the response:

{
"error": {
"code": "Request_ResourceNotFound",
"message": "Resource 'a021c516-a1c9-4446-9ef7-1acc625c76e6' does not exist or one of its queried reference-property objects are not present.",

}
}
}

Can you confirm when you go into portal.azure.com that the application is listed there with that guid? a021c516-a1c9-4446-9ef7-1acc625c76e6

Can you run this request in Graph Explorer signed in as the user you want to run this with?

[Norrch2]

@jthake-msft

When I login to Azure Portal with GA. I am able to access Active Directory and click on Enterprise applications. There I am able to see all the apps and yes the appID is also in that list.

However, I notice that it doesn't matter which appID is plugged in there. None of them work and all return the same error "does not exist or one of its queried reference-property objects are not present."

The only app it is showing is the App I registered, but none of the enterprise apps.

[jthake-msft]

when you call the Microsoft Graph, what identity are you signed in as (e.g. access token being used)? Is it the GA?

[Norrch2]

I am not sure I understand your question, so let me explain the process that I am following.

My application was registered through apps.dev.microsoft.com and given the following permissions

"Application.ReadWrite.All" (Admin Only)
Application.ReadWrite.OwnedBy (Admin Only)
Directory.Read.All (Admin Only)

First, I have the user login with their member credentials (@customdomain.com). Then my REST client requests the authentication token from https://login.microsoftonline.com/Tenant.

Hopefully this answers your question.

[jthake-msft]

So the user login you are using...if they go into portal.azure.com do they see the application listed?

[Norrch2]

Yes, they can.

[jthake-msft]

can you confirm that you are signed into Graph Explorer with this account? can you send a screen shot, something doesn't add up here.

[Norrch2]

@jthake-msft

Yes, I have confirmed that I am logged in with that account.

Here are the images you have requested.

[jthake-msft]

@dkershaw10 any chance you could help here?

[dkershaw10]

@Norrch2 What happens if you search by displayName? GET ../applications?$filter=startswith(displayName, '<whatever>') Does that find your application?

Can you also try GET ../applications?$filter=appId eq 'a021c516-a1c9-4446-9ef7-1acc625c76e6'

Did this used to work for looking up this app, or is this a regression?

[Norrch2]

Hi @dkershaw10 ,

When I query using the filter, I am able to find the application and parse the data.

This is a new application.

[rogereriksen]

I am experiencing similar problem. I am not able to get application using appID. I am able to retrieve the application using filter, but I am not able to get extensionProperties, createdOnBehalfOf, owners, policies or synchronization.

[dkershaw10]

@Norrch2 Sorry you have run in to this. More below.
@rogereriksen Sorry about your challenges. All of those navigation properties still exist on the application entity type, it's just you aren't able to find the application entity based on appId, so the navigations fail as well. Read more below. BTW - I believe that the extensionProperties navigation will likely be removed too in the future, so I would not rely on this.

@sureshja Can you respond on this thread? It looks like we pushed a series of breaking changes to the application API preview (so it appears like a regression to developers). It looks like we exposed the new appId property and now expose the index to the collection based on an object id rather than the appId (to be consistent with how this worked in AAD Graph).
What this means @Norrch2 @rogereriksen is that when you do this:
GET ../beta/applications/{id} - the {id} is the object id for the application entity, and not the appId. These are 2 different identifiers. If you put appId in for the {id} you'll get an object not found error.

BTW When you run your filter queries above, you can see these 2 properties for yourself - the response contains an id and an appId property.

Hope this helps

[Norrch2]

Thank you very much for the update.

This should be reflected in the documents here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/application-get?view=graph-rest-beta&tabs=http. 🙁

Even the Microsoft guys build the https://github.com/AzureAD/passport-azure-ad do not know about it.

[rikkuness]

If I try use the filter I get Unsupported or invalid query filter clause specified for property 'appId' of resource 'Application'..

Also it still seems to not be able to query /application/{id} using the "Application ID".

So if I have an Application ID, what's the currently correct way to get the application?

[dkershaw10]

Something like this should work. Works in my test tenant.
GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/applications?$filter=appId eq '661f2f80-1015-4d89-b6d3-9991b37bad6d'

Oh my bad, yep, I had a space at the end of my ID that was throwing it all off!
