@jiasli @yonzhan Could you confirm that it's a bug and not something I missed ?

Guys ? Any news, at least an answer if this is a bug or not.

Similar to

• az ad group member list does not list service principals #22664

According to List group owners API's documentation:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/group-list-owners?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http

Note: Currently, service principals are not listed as group owners due to the staged rollout of service principals to the Microsoft Graph v1.0 endpoint.

This is a feature gap between AD Graph and Microsoft Graph. az ad group owner list internally calls that API.

As a workaround, you may try using az rest to call beta API: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/group-list-owners?view=graph-rest-beta&tabs=http (though I haven't verified that myself).

@jiasli Thank you for the workaround, it's indeed working fine, I'm going to go with that while the bug is fix

$ az rest --method get --url https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/groups/c40d6c92-ebf1-46ee-9fd1-99685b281394/owners | jq -r ".value | .[] | [.mail,.id] | @tsv"
