Global Reader
Authentication Administrator
Privileged Authentication Administrator

HTTP request

To retrieve details of a long running operation of role management alert refresh:

GET /identityGovernance/roleManagementAlerts/operations/{longRunningOperationId}

To retrieve the status of a long running operation of authentication method reset:

GET /users/{id | userPrincipalName}/authentication/operations/{id}

Optional query parameters

This method supports the $select OData query parameter to help customize the response. For general information, see OData query parameters.

Request headers

Name	Description
Authorization	Bearer {token}. Required. Learn more about authentication and authorization.

Request body

Don't supply a request body for this method.

Response

If successful, this method returns a 200 OK response code and a longRunningOperation object in the response body. For role management alerts, the resourceLocation contains the url of the role management alert if the operation status is succeeded; otherwise, the resourceLocation is empty.
