Get started with the Microsoft Graph SDK for PHP

Install the SDK

You can install the PHP SDK with Composer by editing your composer.json file:

{
    "require": {
        // x-release-please-start-version
        "microsoft/microsoft-graph": "^2.18.0"
        // x-release-please-end
    }
}

Get started with Microsoft Graph

Register your application

Register your application to use the Microsoft Graph API using Microsoft Azure Active Directory in your tenant's Active Directory to support work or school users for your tenant, or multiple tenants.

Create a Token Request Context

A Token Request Context contains the credentials used to authenticate requests. The SDK supports various contexts that align with OAuth 2.0 flows: client_credentials, authorization_code and on_behalf_of with support for secret-based and certificate-based client authentication.

Under the hood, the Token Request Context is passed to an authentication provider which fetches, caches and refreshes access tokens ensuring all requests are authenticated against the Microsoft Identity platform.

The following sample creates a TokenRequestContext that gets access without a user:

<?php
use Microsoft\Kiota\Authentication\Oauth\ClientCredentialContext;
use Microsoft\Graph\Core\Authentication\GraphPhpLeagueAuthenticationProvider;

$tokenRequestContext = new ClientCredentialContext(
    'tenantId',
    'clientId',
    'clientSecret'
);

To gets access on behalf of a user:

<?php
use Microsoft\Kiota\Authentication\Oauth\AuthorizationCodeContext;
use Microsoft\Graph\Core\Authentication\GraphPhpLeagueAuthenticationProvider;

$tokenRequestContext = new AuthorizationCodeContext(
    'tenantId',
    'clientId',
    'clientSecret',
    'authCode',
    'redirectUri'
);

Note that your application will need to handle redirecting the user to the Microsoft Identity login page to get the authorization_code that's passed into the AuthorizationCodeContext. See for more on the authorization_code grant flow. To keep your user signed in across multiple requests within a session, see section on access token management

Initialize a GraphServiceClient

Using the Token Request Context and optional scopes, a GraphServiceClient can be initialised:

use Microsoft\Graph\GraphServiceClient;

// Defaults to using https://graph.microsoft.com/.default scopes
$graphServiceClient = new GraphServiceClient($tokenRequestContext);

// With specific scopes
$scopes = ['User.Read', 'Mail.ReadWrite'];
$graphServiceClient = new GraphServiceClient($tokenRequestContext, $scopes);

To initialize the GraphServiceClient with an already acquired access token or to retrieve the access token that the SDK fetches on your behalf, see section on access token management.

For more on Graph client configuration, see more examples

Call Microsoft Graph using the v1.0 endpoint and models

The following is an example that shows how to fetch a user from Microsoft Graph

<?php
use Microsoft\Graph\GraphServiceClient;
use Microsoft\Kiota\Abstractions\ApiException;
use Microsoft\Kiota\Authentication\Oauth\ClientCredentialContext;

$tokenRequestContext = new ClientCredentialContext(
    'tenantId',
    'clientId',
    'clientSecret'
);
$graphServiceClient = new GraphServiceClient($tokenRequestContext);

try {
    $user = $graphServiceClient->users()->byUserId('[userPrincipalName]')->get()->wait();
    echo "Hello, I am {$user->getGivenName()}";

} catch (ApiException $ex) {
    echo $ex->getError()->getMessage();
}

Note: The SDK is designed to make async requests by default. Operations (get(), post()...) return a Promise. To get the result, call wait() after the operation. Example: ->get()->wait();

Note that to calling me() requires a signed-in user and therefore delegated permissions (obtained using the authorization_code flow):

<?php
use Microsoft\Graph\GraphServiceClient;
use Microsoft\Kiota\Abstractions\ApiException;
use Microsoft\Kiota\Authentication\Oauth\AuthorizationCodeContext;

$tokenRequestContext = new AuthorizationCodeContext(
    'tenantId',
    'clientId',
    'clientSecret',
    'authCode',
    'redirectUri'
);
$scopes = ['User.Read'];
$graphServiceClient = new GraphServiceClient($tokenRequestContext, $scopes);

try {
    $user = $graphServiceClient->me()->get()->wait();
    echo "Hello, I am {$user->getGivenName()}";
} catch (ApiException $ex) {
    echo $ex->getError()->getMessage();
}
