PrivilegedAccess.Read.AzureAD
Allows the app to read time-based assignment and just-in-time elevation (including scheduled elevation) of Azure AD built-in and custom administrative roles, on behalf of the signed-in user.
Merill's Note
For an app to access data in Microsoft Graph, the user or administrator must grant it the permissions it needs. This article lists all the Microsoft Graph APIs and your tenant data that can be accessed by the application (vendor/developer) if you consent to the
PrivilegedAccess.Read.AzureADpermission.If you need to create an audit report of the permissions granted to all the apps in your tenant, you can run the
Export-MsIdAppConsentGrantReportcommand. See How To: Run a quick OAuth app audit of your tenant
