Hi,
I am looking for a way to find only parent sites in a tenant.

There exist an API in Microsoft Graph which can get me list of all the sites( and subsites) if I don't pass any search keyword
https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites?search=

But there is no property in the response which can help in deducing which one is a parent site and which one is a subsite.

We have a requirement to know all the parent sites in the tenant.
Is there a property in the response or api query filter we can use to get only the parent sites and drop the subsites?

    Hi @Akash Asthana ,

    You can call the /sites endpoint to get all available parent sites in your organization. Note that this endpoint is only available in the application context.
