Lookup EntraID group "Object Id" from group name

[antonlidblad]

What problem are you facing?

Some providers like dbforpostgresql.azure.upbound.io (FlexibleServerActiveDirectoryAdministrator) requires both principalName and objectId. To simplify I would like to lookup EntraID group objectId from group name.

I have tried to "observe" an existing EntraID group but annontation "crossplane.io/external-name" requires objectId (and not group name).

How can I lookup an EntraID group objectId from group name?

also very interested in this as part of some compositions we are working on. i would rather users supply names of groups and i will do the conversion in the backend which this can help support
