Namespace: microsoft.graph.healthMonitoring

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.

Read the properties and relationships of a Microsoft Entra health monitoring alert object. The returned alert object contains information about the state, type, date, and impact of each alert that fired within your tenant.

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)	HealthMonitoringAlert.Read.All	HealthMonitoringAlert.ReadWrite.All
Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Not supported.	Not supported.
Application	HealthMonitoringAlert.Read.All	HealthMonitoringAlert.ReadWrite.All

In addition to the delegated permissions, the signed-in user needs to belong to a Microsoft Entra role that allows them to view alerts. The following least privileged roles are supported for this operation.

Global Reader
Security Administrator
Security Operator
Security Reader
Helpdesk Administrator
Reports Reader

HTTP request

GET /reports/healthMonitoring/alerts/{alertId}

Optional query parameters

This method supports the $select and $expand OData query parameters to help customize the response.

When no $expand query parameter is added, this API doesn't return resourceSampling property by default. When you want to retrieve a sample of the resources involved in triggering the alert for root cause investigation, you can add $expand=enrichment/impacts/microsoft.graph.healthmonitoring.directoryobjectimpactsummary/resourceSampling to view resourceSampling in directoryObjectImpactSummary.

Request headers

Name	Description
Authorization	Bearer {token}. Required. Learn more about authentication and authorization.

Request body

Don't supply a request body for this method.

Response

If successful, this method returns a 200 OK response code and a microsoft.graph.healthMonitoring.alert object in the response body.

Examples

Example 1: Get the properties of the specified alert

Request

The following example shows a request.

GET https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/reports/healthMonitoring/alerts/{id}


// Code snippets are only available for the latest version. Current version is 5.x

// To initialize your graphClient, see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/sdks/create-client?from=snippets&tabs=csharp
var result = await graphClient.Reports.HealthMonitoring.Alerts["{alert-id}"].GetAsync();

Important

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.

For details about how to add the SDK to your project and create an authProvider instance, see the SDK documentation.
