Namespace: microsoft.graph

Important

APIs under the /beta version in Microsoft Graph are subject to change. Use of these APIs in production applications is not supported. To determine whether an API is available in v1.0, use the Version selector.

Validate the ownership of a domain.

Important: Only applies to an unverified domain. For an unverified domain, the isVerified property of the domain is false.

This API is available in the following national cloud deployments.

Global service	US Government L4	US Government L5 (DOD)	China operated by 21Vianet
✅	✅	✅	✅

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.

Permission type	Least privileged permissions	Higher privileged permissions
Delegated (work or school account)	Domain.ReadWrite.All	Not available.
Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Not supported.	Not supported.
Application	Domain.ReadWrite.All	Not available.

The work or school account needs to belong to at least the Domain Name Administrator Microsoft Entra role.

HTTP request

POST /domains/{id}/verify

For {id}, specify the domain with its fully qualified domain name.

Request headers

Name	Description
Authorization	Bearer {token}. Required. Learn more about authentication and authorization.
Content-Type	application/json

Request body

In the request body, supply a JSON representation of the parameters.

The following table lists the parameters that are optional when you call this action.

Parameter	Type	Description
forceTakeover	Boolean	Optional. Used for external admin takeover of an unmanaged domain. The default value for this parameter is `false`. If the domain to be verified is currently linked to an unmanaged tenant but you own the domain, use this parameter to take over that domain. Force takeover only succeeds when this tenant has verified their ownership of the domain by adding the TXT records to the domain registrar. For more information, see Take over an unmanaged directory as administrator in Microsoft Entra ID.

Response

If successful, this method returns 200 OK response code and domain object in the response body.

Example 1: Verify a domain

Microsoft Graph SDKs use the v1.0 version of the API by default, and do not support all the types, properties, and APIs available in the beta version. For details about accessing the beta API with the SDK, see Use the Microsoft Graph SDKs with the beta API.
