M365 Changelog: Announcing graph support for Get Team Template List and Get Team Template Details

MC311845 – This new release will bring Graph support to Get Template List and Get Template Details. Team templates enable users to quickly create the right collaboration structure for their business needs. With Graph API support for Team Templates, Microsoft will be empowering their developer community to build their custom create team solutions on top of their existing APIs.

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 70793.

When this will happen:

Public preview: Microsoft will begin rolling this out in mid-February and expect to complete rollout late February.

Standard: Microsoft will begin rolling this out in late February and expect to complete rollout early March.

How this will affect your organization:

Today, there is no support for List Team Templates and Get Template Details via Graph API. This new functionality will bring two new Azure Active Directory (AAD) permissions providing access to these APIs.

TeamTemplates.Read (for user delegated access) and TeamTemplates.Read.All (for Application access). With these accesses, Users and Admin consented Apps will be able to get the list of First Party and Tenant Team Templates using List Team Templates API and Details of a Team Template using Team Template Details API.

  • Customers can use Template Ids obtained through Team Template Graph APIs to create Team from Templates using Create Team Graph API. 

What you need to do to prepare:

You might want to notify your users about this change and update your training and documentation as appropriate.
