The documentation for using the MS Graph 1.0 API for accessing SharePoint files from libraries seems clear enough, if a bit indirect. My understanding is that I should be able to access the top level item of a library (and then its children via /children) by the following url scheme:
https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/<my-tenant>.sharepoint.com:/sites/my-test-site:/drive/root
But I am only getting back an error telling me the Url is invalid:
{
"error": {
"code": "BadRequest",
"message": "Url specified is invalid.",
"innerError": {
"request-id": "08bb72aa-f3be-4df0-b253-dacc4a8fe390",
"date": "2019-07-08T16:38:07"
}
}
}
I've tried a few other url formats as well, such as specifying the drive specifically by Id /drives/<driveId>/root but had the same luck. I'm sure I am misunderstanding something. I'm using the "Path" format (:/sites/path-to-site:/ in the API because it is more natural than going and fetching an Id for everything I need to query.
You need provide global Id of the site you want to access (global Id is <hostName>,<siteCollectionId>,<siteId>).To get the global id, in you test, we can use this.
https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/<my-tenant>.sharepoint.com:/sites/my-test-site:/
And below API gives us a list of files on a specified site's default drive:
https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/<hostName>,<siteCollectionId>,<siteId>/drive/root/children
If you want to access files on a specific list, all you need is the id of the list:
https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/<hostName>,<siteCollectionId>,<siteId>/lists/<listId>/drive/root/children

I'm using the following api to successfully get file data:
https://acme.sharepoint.com/sites/my-site/_api/Web/Lists(guid'xxx')/files('yyy')
This is a docx file on which I've posted comments using the web console.
How can I fetch these comments using the rest api? I tried appending /comments to the url, but I'm getting the following 404 error:
{
"error": {
"code": "-1, Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ResourceNotFoundException",
"message": {
"lang": "en-US",
"value": "Cannot find resource for the request Comments."
}
}
}
The Comments() endpoint currently exists only under the Items() endpoint and not under the Files() endpoint.
Basically, you can access the Comments() functionality only under the below endpoint:
GET https://{site_url}/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle({list_title})/items({item_id})/Comments
You can easily test the above in a PowerAutomate scenario with a Send Http Request to SharePoint actions.
In the below example I attempt to target the file in the document library:
On the other hand, if I attempt to target the file based on the List Item Id that it got in the document library I will get the below response:
As you can see from the above, I am also able to target a specific comment that I left.
Please take note of the below
The Comments() endpoint is not available for MS resources, meaning docx, excels and such files. It is only available for non-MS resource files like pdfs, txts and so on. I am not sure why this rule is in effect but, my best guess would be because there is a "commenting" functionality provided within a Word Document, for example.
You could find a bit more info about the above here.
I'm experimenting on Microsoft Graph API to update the profile picture.
Although there is a documentation about it (See Link Here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/profilephoto-update?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=javascript), I can't seem to understand it.
I tried sending a random data to see if something would work, however I can only get the GET Method to work but somehow trying to make the PUT Method work returns an error.
{
"error": {
"code": "ErrorInsufficientPermissionsInAccessToken",
"message": "Exception of type 'Microsoft.Fast.Profile.Core.Exception.ProfileAccessDeniedException' was thrown.",
"innerError": {
"date": "2022-04-15T07:10:11",
"request-id": "********-****-****-****-************",
"client-request-id": "********-****-****-****-************"
}
}
}
Basically the two concerns are:
How to use the PUT Method for updating the profile picture using Microsoft Graph API
Why am I receiving the error as if I'm not allowed to update?
Is it because I'm doing the PUT Method incorrectly?
Is it because I need some sort of subscription to use the API?
I found that graph API in Germany endpoint seems not to support
GET /users/<id>/mailFolders/delta
it returns
**400**
{
"error": {
"code": "ErrorInvalidIdMalformed",
"message": "Id is malformed.",
"innerError": {
"request-id": "cf713386-f050-40b4-b987-43cc2384eade",
"date": "2017-12-12T07:13:10"
}
}
}
However it works fine at
GET /users/<id>/mailFolders
Thanks for help
I had been in the same trouble, but I resolved.
Your request to:
GET /users/<id>/mailFolders/delta
is not correct, I think.
I guess that this mail folder delta was made by you, doesn't it?
To specify a mail folder, you need to use folder id, not display name.
Though you might already get the folder id, you can get the folder id by sending a request
GET /users/<id>/mailFolders
Note: Actually, we can get folder_ids via powershell:
Get-MailboxFolderStatistics
cmdlet on Exchange. However, these folder_id are malformed in ms-graph request. So you need to use the id which you can get as described above.
If I use the GET statement:
https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/sites/root/sites/ then it correctly returns a list of sub sites under my main SharePoint site. But if I add a new Team Site sub-site to my main site and then run the same command it now returns
{
"error": {
"code": "itemNotFound",
"message": "The resource could not be found.",
"innerError": {
"request-id": "604af4de-b2b5-48cf-802b-1952a7d10b42",
"date": "2017-10-07T16:56:48"
}
}
}
When I delete the new sub-site the GET statement works again. I thought it was an issue with my SharePoint site so I reported it to Office 365 SharePoint support. They get the same error. It happens with Graph v1.0 and beta but is not in the Known Issues list.
I am trying to use this to get the Drive Id of a SharePoint library on a sub-sub site but cannot get past this issue on the problem sub-site. Is there any other way of getting a Drive Id of libraries on the sub-site that Graph at present seems unable to access?
Whilst the issue of Graph not being able to return a list of more than 7 sub-sites is still there, I have found a work around to enable me to get the Drive Ids of the Drives on the sub-sites. By using the /sites: /{sitepath} option (NB the colon) I was able to go directly to the required sub-sites and then get the relevant drive Ids.
I just wanted to follow up and say we have now made some improvements that should hopefully let these kinds of queries work past 7 subsites. So hopefully this issue is now resolved.
Workaround (v1.0 only) : use
https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites?search=*
as proposed here
I am trying to access the document libraries created by a user in their own domain-my.sharepoint.com, based on the documentation I inferred that the way to do it is
https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/sites/domain-my.sharepoint.com/drives
As drives map to document library(?)
I'm able to make this work with domain.sharepoint.com, but unable to make it work with domain-my.sharepoint.com
here is what it says:
{
"error": {
"code": "invalidRequest",
"message": "Provided id is not suitable for the current host",
"innerError": {
"request-id": "09c5722c-cfc3-4589-ba76-e57c44590d16",
"date": "2017-06-27T06:53:59"
}
}
}
Any help will be appreciated.
I believe what you're looking for is the OneDrive endpoint. You can access the current user's drive using https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/drive/
Another way to get what you want is via a request to:
https://domain-my.sharepoint.com/_api/v2.0/sites/domain-my.sharepoint.com/drives
Basically the /_api/v2.0/sites endpoints seems to support everything that is documented in the corresponding Graph API docs.
