Research direction

Start at the client.directory_roles_with_role_template_id("placeholder-id") entry point and trace how the directory role resource exposes members. Confirm that the SDK can issue GET /directoryRoles(roleTemplateId='{roleTemplateId}')/members and verify the result against the documented Microsoft Graph request.

Description

status:waiting-for-triage type:bug
Describe the bug

I want to look up members of a directory role by its template id:
GET /directoryRoles(roleTemplateId='{roleTemplateId}')/members
As documented here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/directoryrole-list-members?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=python#http-request

But the closest I could come was:

client.directory_roles_with_role_template_id("placeholder-id").members   # But .members does not exist

Unless I have missed it, it looks like the /directoryRoles(roleTemplateId='{roleTemplateId}')/members query is not possible with the current SDK.

Expected behavior

It should be possible to make the query GET /directoryRoles(roleTemplateId='{roleTemplateId}')/members via the SDK.

How to reproduce

N/A (apart from trying to construct the query)

SDK Version

1.58.0

Latest version known to work for scenario above?

No response

Known Workarounds

It can be worked around by first getting the directory role, and then querying its members by role id (instead of role template id).
