Power Platform Community Forum Thread Details

When manually creating a new SharePoint group, you get the option to grant sitewide access to the group at a chosen permission level. When creating a new group via Power Automate, I don't see a way to do it. So my question - is there a parameter in the Send an HTTP Request to SharePoint action that will allow me to grant that permission, or is there a way to grant the permission after creating the group? I know how to add the group to a specific library, but not to the site as a whole.

The HTTP Request I use to create the group goes a little something like this:

POST

Header:

{
"accept": "application/json;odata=verbose",
"content-type": "application/json;odata=verbose"
}

Body:

{
    "__metadata": {
        "type": "SP.Group"
    },
    "Title": "@{outputs('SPGroupName')}",
    "Description": "The bestest group ever"

}

I don't see a site permissions parameter I can address in the documentation:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/office/sharepoint-visio/jj245927(v=office.15)

So if I can't address that when creating a group, can I grant the group Read permission at the site level after I create it?

Thanks in advance!
