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.

Retrieve a single message or a message reply in a channel or a chat.

This API is available in the following national cloud deployments.

Global service	US Government L4	US Government L5 (DOD)	China operated by 21Vianet
✅	✅	✅	✅

Permissions

One of the following permissions is required to call this API. To learn more, including how to choose permissions, see Permissions.

Permissions for channel

Permission type	Permissions (from least to most privileged)
Delegated (work or school account)	ChannelMessage.Read.All, Group.Read.All, Group.ReadWrite.All
Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Not supported.
Application	ChannelMessage.Read.Group, ChannelMessage.Read.All, Group.Read.All, Group.ReadWrite.All

Note: The Group.Read.All and Group.ReadWrite.All permissions are supported only for backward compatibility. We recommend that you update your solutions to use an alternative permission listed in the previous table and avoid using these permissions going forward.
