Course Overview

The Microsoft Azure AD Graph course is designed for developers, cloud administrators, and identity management professionals seeking to understand the legacy Azure Active Directory Graph API before its full retirement. Although this course does not align with a current certification exam due to the deprecation of Azure AD Graph, it serves roles such as Identity and Access Management Specialist, Cloud Application Developer, and Azure Administrator. As of 2025, over 90% of enterprise organizations using Microsoft Entra ID are actively migrating from Azure AD Graph to Microsoft Graph, making foundational knowledge of the legacy system critical for smooth transitions. This course provides essential historical context and technical understanding for managing older applications still dependent on Azure AD Graph endpoints.

Students engage with core technologies including the Azure AD Graph REST API, Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD), OData 3.0 protocol, Postman for API testing, Graph Explorer, and the Azure Portal lab environment. Through hands-on labs, learners configure service principals, query user and group objects, manage application registrations, and perform CRUD operations on directory entities using HTTP methods. A key project involves building a script to migrate user data from an on-premises directory into Azure AD via the Graph API, simulating real-world integration scenarios. The lab environment replicates production-grade Microsoft Entra tenants, allowing students to safely explore deprecated features like differential queries and batch processing while understanding their limitations.

While Microsoft no longer offers certifications specific to Azure AD Graph, this course prepares learners for broader Microsoft identity certifications such as SC-300: Microsoft Identity and Access Administrator, which recognizes expertise in modern identity solutions. Professionals with these skills report average salaries between $95,000 and $130,000 annually, according to 2024 industry surveys. Koenig Solutions enhances learning with Guaranteed-to-Run batches and official Microsoft courseware, ensuring access to accurate, up-to-date materials even for legacy content. By mastering Azure AD Graph, learners position themselves to lead migration initiatives and advance into senior cloud architecture or security engineering roles within enterprise IT environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about the Azure AD Graph training course

Is the certification exam included in the Azure AD Graph training, and what is the cost if separate?
The certification exam is not included in Azure AD Graph training; learners must register separately. The associated Microsoft Certified: Identity and Access Administrator Associate exam (AI-102) costs $165 USD. This role-based exam validates your expertise in managing Microsoft Entra ID, including critical migration steps from the legacy Azure AD Graph to the modern Microsoft Graph API.
What training formats are available for Azure AD Graph at Koenig Solutions?
Koenig offers Azure AD Graph training via live online 1-on-1, public instructor-led sessions, and self-paced formats. All courses are Guaranteed-to-Run to prevent scheduling disruptions. We use official Microsoft courseware delivered by Microsoft Certified Trainers, providing you with flexible, personalized learning paths that mirror real-world identity management and API migration scenarios.
How long is lab access provided, and what environment is used for hands-on practice?
You receive 30 days of lab access post-course in a secure, cloud-based sandbox. These labs feature preconfigured Microsoft-hosted virtual machines running Azure AD (Microsoft Entra ID) and Microsoft Graph APIs. This environment allows you to practice querying identities and executing complex migrations from Azure AD Graph to Microsoft Graph using REST and modern SDKs.
What is Koenig's rescheduling and cancellation policy for this course?
Koenig offers free rescheduling with over 7 days' notice. Changes within 7 days incur a 50% fee. Cancellations within 10 days of the start date are subject to a 50% charge. This policy applies to all Microsoft IAM training, including Azure AD Graph migration modules, ensuring professional accountability while maintaining flexibility for your busy schedule.
What is the exam format, number of questions, passing score, and time limit for the related certification?
The AI-102 exam features 40–60 questions, including multiple-choice, case studies, and performance-based labs, with a 120-minute limit. You must achieve a passing score of 700 out of 1000. The exam tests your ability to design Microsoft Entra ID solutions and successfully migrate applications from the deprecated Azure AD Graph to the current Microsoft Graph.
How long is the certification valid, and what is the renewal process and cost?
The Microsoft Certified: Identity and Access Administrator Associate credential is valid for one year. You can renew it for free by completing an online assessment on Microsoft Learn before it expires. There is no renewal fee, allowing you to maintain your expertise in identity management and the transition from Azure AD Graph to Microsoft Graph.
What post-training support does Koenig provide after completing the Azure AD Graph course?
Post-training, Koenig provides 30 days of lab access, session recordings, a certificate of completion, and 6 hours of free trainer consultation. You also receive practice test questions and official courseware. This support helps you master the migration from Azure AD Graph to Microsoft Graph and implement robust identity governance practices in your professional environment.
What prerequisites or prior experience are recommended for the Azure AD Graph course?
Learners should possess intermediate knowledge of cloud computing, Azure portal navigation, and OAuth 2.0 authentication. Experience with REST APIs and PowerShell is highly beneficial. While prior Azure AD Graph knowledge is helpful, the course focuses on practical migration strategies to Microsoft Graph, covering essential differences in endpoints, security permissions, and data models.
What is the career impact and average salary after completing Azure AD Graph and Microsoft Graph training?
Professionals skilled in Microsoft Entra ID and Microsoft Graph command average salaries between $110,000 and $140,000 USD annually. Roles include Identity and Access Administrator, Cloud Security Engineer, and IAM Developer. With Azure AD Graph being deprecated, mastering the migration to Microsoft Graph significantly boosts your employability in cloud security, compliance, and enterprise application integration.
How does instructor-led training compare to self-study for mastering Azure AD Graph migration?
Instructor-led training provides structured guidance, real-time doubt resolution, and hands-on labs essential for mastering Azure AD Graph to Microsoft Graph migration. Self-study lacks this interactive support. Given the technical complexity of API transitions and strict deprecation timelines, live training accelerates your learning curve and ensures your skills align with Microsoft’s best practices for secure, scalable identity solutions.
