Create an Azure AD B2C (ADB2C) user using Postman

 Here's a step-by-step guide to help you through the process.

Registered App in Azure AD B2C with:

  • Delegated Microsoft Graph API permissions:
    • User.ReadWrite.All
    • Directory.ReadWrite.All
  • Client secret
  • Admin Consent granted for permissions







 



Step 1: Get Access Token 

Request:

 Method: POST
 URL: https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenant-id}/oauth2/v2.0/token

 

Headers:
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded 

Body: (x-www-form-urlencoded):

grant_type=client_credentials

client_id={your-client-id}

client_secret={your-client-secret}

scope=https://graph.microsoft.com/.default


















Endpoint will provide you with an Access Token












Step 2: Create a User

Request:

Method: POST
URL: https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users

 

Headers:

Authorization: Bearer {access_token}

Content-Type: application/json

 

Body (raw JSON):

{  
  "displayName": "sunny setia",
  "givenName": "sunny27",
  "surname": "setia",
  "identities": [  
    {  
      "signInType": "emailAddress",  
      "issuer": "tssorg.onmicrosoft.com",  
      "issuerAssignedId": "setia27@mailinator.com"  
    }
  ],  
  "passwordProfile":{  
    "password": "P@ssword1",  
    "forceChangePasswordNextSignIn": false  
  },  
  "passwordPolicies": "DisablePasswordExpiration"  
}  















Important:

  • The Issuer must follow your B2C tenant domain.
  • Use a strong password that meets AAD complexity requirements.
