I'm trying to retrieve a document library by path using the Graph API and I'm not sure how to proceed.
The url to the library is for example the following:
https://hostname/sites/sitename/subsite/nameofdocumentlibrary/
I would like to have all the children through the Graph API. The issue: I know the document of the library but I don't know the ID of the library. It seems that it's possible to access it through the relative path but I'm not succeeding to it.
How do I do this?
My get url was the following:
/v1.0/sites/hostname:/sites/sitename/subsite/nameofdoccumentlibary/items
I'm always getting:
The provided path does not exist, or does not represent a site or UnknownError.
Any ideas ?
Try to use this:
GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/{hostname},{spsite-id},{spweb-id}/lists/{list-id}
I don't check this in real life because I don't have SP Online. But it must working.
Use this link with SharePoint Graph API.
To get site id (site collection) you can go to your site collection and browse this endpoint:
https://hostname/sites/sitename/_api/site?$select=Id
To get web id (subsite) you can go to your subsite and browse this endpoint:
https://hostname/sites/sitename/subsite/_api/web?$select=Id
To get library Id you can just open Document Library Settings page. URL have library ID. You can transform it to real guid. Like this:
/_layouts/15/listedit.aspx?List=%7B603D7FA3-C801-46EB-A044-421234452901%7D
Must transformed to:
603D7FA3-C801-46EB-A044-421234452901
Following your feedback, I could now retrieve the document library using the display name (not the path in the url).
This is my request:
https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/fullsubsiteid/lists/69369/items
69369 is my display Name here.
I can also use:
https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/fullsubsiteid/lists/69369/drive
Now the first request, is returning an empty value array, while there is a "Documents" folder in the document library. How could I retrieve all folders/files etc in this document library? How can I use relative path?
Tx!

I'm working with Graph API against Microsoft Teams team's SharePoint site.
I'm following the example on this page (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/long-running-actions-overview?tabs=http) and have an issue. I'm able to query the location provided by the copy endpoint and get a "Completed" status that also provides a ResourceId. But I'm unable to use this resource id in any queries and only getting "Item not found".
Example of paths tried:
/drives/{driveId}/items/{resource-id-returned-from-monitor-url}
/groups/{groupId}/drive/items/{resource-id-returned-from-monitor-url}
The {driveID} is the driveId specified in the parentReference.DriveId in the copy file body.
I'm using the v1 Graph endpoint to get the file.
Btw, I can see the file fine in the correct folder within SharePoint.
Any ideas?
Regards,
Oskar
I wasn't using the DriveId supplied by the /education/***/setUpResourcesFolder Location header but rather the Drive of the class.
Fixed by using the driveId part of the Location URL.
Suppose that I have the two following urls:
https://MYCOMPANY.sharepoint.com/sites/DevTeam/Shared%20Documents/Forms/AllItems.aspx
https://MYCOMPANY.sharepoint.com/sites/DevTeam/Shared%20Documents/Forms/AllItems.aspx?viewid=VIEW_ID&id=%2Fsites%2FDevTeam%2FShared%20Documents%2FGeneral
How do I "convert" them into graph api calls? Eg:
Only having the host name (MYCOMPANY.sharepoint.com) and the site name (DevTeam), how do I list all the root documents of the site drive with a graph api call?
Only having the host name (MYCOMPANY.sharepoint.com), the site name (DevTeam), an ID i'm not sure what corresponds to but that I can read in the url (VIEW_ID) and a path (DevTeam/Shared Documents/General), how di I list all the files in DevTeam/Shared Documents/General with a graph api call?
The first URL is for your site's document library. The 2nd URL is for the \General folder in that library.
To access a site given its URL, see: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/site-get?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http In your case, the API call would be
GET /sites/MYCOMPANY.sharepoint.com:dev/
To access the default document library ("drive") for a site, see: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/drive-get?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http In your case, the API call would be
GET /sites/MYCOMPANY.sharepoint.com:dev/drive
To list the files in a folder of a drive, see: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/driveitem-list-children?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http In your case, the API call would be
GET /sites/MYCOMPANY.sharepoint.com:dev/drive/root:/general:/children
Along with the thumbnail photo, I may want to display other properties in my master pages that are imported from AD such as "company" using User Profile sync
If I use SPServices.SPGetCurrentUser() (https://spservices.codeplex.com/documentation), I can get selected properties held in user profile settings. However, I can't make this call since the property does not exist here (yet).
var company = $().SPServices.SPGetCurrentUser({
fieldName: "Company",
debug: false
});
It is however, is displayed both in http://mysite.mydomain.com/_layouts/EditProfile.aspx when in Mysite and _layouts/ProfAdminEdit.aspx (Edit user properties in Central Admin). I guess my question is then to be able to use SPServices, do I somehow edit the default properties and include my "Company" attribute held in the user' mysite profile? Alternatively, is there another way to access the properties held in the user profile with JavaScript ?
Thanks
Daniel
$().SPServices.SPGetCurrentUser calls this page : http://you.site.com/_layouts/userdisp.aspx?Force=True&1376982818371. For me the function is not able to parse the page correctly, but you could simply use jQuery (or pure JS or whatever) to get by yourself the same page, and then parse it to find the data you want.
Otherwise you can use $SP().people() to query the User Profile Service and gets the info for the user. See the example from the provided link. In theory that should return you the same information or even more info.
So let's say I have a full url into a sharepoint website.
In the past when I wanted to get the weburl and doc url, I used the "url to web url" method of the Front Page Server Extensions. (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms460544.aspx).
So for example if you had a site at
http://webapp/site1/chidsite/a.doc
I want a method in CSOM that will return /site1/childsite as the weburl.
I see the Web.WebUrlFromPageUrlDirect() method in CSOM but I'm not sure I'm getting what I need back from it. In the Uri class I get back, would I use teh "AbsolutePath" property for the weburl?
What is the correct way to do this?
I also would like to get the docURL that is usually retrieved by a call to url to web url via frontpage extensions.
The fileurl will be the file location relative to the web site. So if the document is stored in the document library called "Documents", you will get a value of /Documents/file.ext.
Well, I've reverted to using the FrontPage extensions when doing URLToWebURL since I just wasn't sure what I was getting using CSOM methods. Though check the link below for answers I received elsewhere.
Information Pertaining to this issue
I am trying to create an html object dynamically with the necessary header information depending on the query string in the link I provide to Facebook. I am hoping that Facebook open graph will call this html link as I provided. However it seems that query string info are not getting passed to my server. Do anyone know how to make this work or what is the more appropriate way to do this. BTW, I am writing my code in Node.js.
To get more info about Facebook open graph api, look here, https://developers.facebook.com/docs/beta/opengraph/actions/.
For example, the link I am trying to pass to Facebook is, "http://xxx-url.com/getFacebookObject?objectId=&description=first dynamic post", so I sent a request with the link as, "https://graph.facebook.com/me/app-name:action-name?object=http://xxx-url.com/getFacebookObject?objectId=&description=first dynamic post". However, when I check the log on the server, I don't see anything in the query string.
Instead of using the query string, you can embed the data in the URL:
http://some-domain.com/getFacebookObject/id/description
Then, depending on what node.js packages you're using, extract the data from the request:
// expess.js style
app.get("/getFacebookObject/:id/:description", function(req, res) {
var id = req.params.id,
desc = req.params.description;
// your code...
});
(See http://expressjs.com/guide.html.)
Sorry, Facebook will strip off all query string information from the URL when they launch your site in the iframe. If it was a page tab app, then you could add it to the app_data query string parameters which in turn gets passed to your iframe's page tab app via the app_data part of the signed_request parameter.
