Description
Describe the bug
I'm trying to verify that users I'm creating join an administrative unit with dynamic membership rules. Instead of querying the members, I figure I can just try to extract the given member. The documentation does not give any C# samples, but I found that I can address the administrativeUnit membership using
graphServiceClient.Directory.AdministrativeUnits[unitId].Members[memberId]
However, there's no GetAsync() operation on this. It seems, you need to specify what kind of member type you're looking for - so for a user, it is
graphServiceClient.Directory.AdministrativeUnits[unitId].Members[memberId].GraphUser.GetAsync() .
So when I'm trying this, I'm getting an exception with message
Invalid property 'businessPhones' specified in $select.
However, I'm not making any selects, so it seems the SDK is injecting something.
Expected behavior
await graphServiceClient.Directory.AdministrativeUnits[unitId].Members[memberId].GraphUser.GetAsync()` should return the User in case it's there, or an exception Resource_not_Found if memberId is not a member of the Administrative Unit.
How to reproduce
For an existing Administrative Unit with id unitIdand a user that is a member with id memberId call
await graphServiceClient.Directory.AdministrativeUnits[unitId].Members[memberId].GraphUser.GetAsync()`

Research direction
Start with graphServiceClient.Directory.AdministrativeUnits[unitId].Members[memberId].GraphUser.GetAsync() using SDK 6.2.0, and compare its request with the administrative unit list-members operation documented for C#. Trace why businessPhones is included in $select even though the caller specifies no select. Done means retrieving an existing member succeeds without that invalid property error and a missing member produces the expected not-found result.
