Describe the bug
I am an eDiscovery Manager and I am trying to use New-MgSecurityCaseEdiscoveryCaseMember to add people to an eDiscovery case.
Since SDK version 2.35.1 this worked fine. On 5/4/2026 it stopped working. Status: 401 (Unauthorized) ErrorCode: UnknownError
I asked an eDiscovery admin to test the command and it worked for him. This appears to be related to me being a Manager instead of an Admin.
I attempted to reproduce the error using Graph Explorer but did not find a resource for ../securityMembers
If I should be able to use Graph Explorer to reproduce the error please advise on finding a resource.
Expected behavior
no error
How to reproduce
-
Configure a user as an eDiscovery Manager role
-
Connect to scope "eDiscovery.ReadWrite.All"
-
Identify a case and set $ediscoveryCaseId
-
Code snip
$params = @{
recipientType = "user"
smtpAddress = "user@microsoft.com"
}
New-MgSecurityCaseEdiscoveryCaseMember -EdiscoveryCaseId $ediscoveryCaseId -BodyParameter $params
SDK Version
