Graph API [Sharepoint Subpath] Issue with output #13430

Question

Graph API URls:

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/:/sites/:/drive

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites//drive

Output:

{
"@odata.context": "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/$metadata#drives/$entity",
"createdDateTime": "2021-07-xxTxx:xx:xxZ",
"description": "",
"id": "",
"lastModifiedDateTime": "2021-07-xxTxx:xx:xxZ",
"name": "Documents",
"webUrl": "https:///sites//Shared%20Documents",
"driveType": "documentLibrary",
"createdBy": {
"user": {
"displayName": "System Account"
}
},
"lastModifiedBy": {
"user": {
"displayName": "System Account"
}
},
"owner": {
"user": {
"email": "",
"id": "< id >",
"displayName": "Jatish Khanna"
}
},
"quota": {
...
}
}

--- It works but building a subpath on the above URL have different outputs ----

Example Subpaths:
https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/:/sites/:/drive/root
https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites//drive/root

Adding root to these subpaths doesn't work. This seems issue with the Graph API implementation.

Hi @Jatish Khanna ,

Per my test, I got the same result as yours on my end: 400 BadRequest in the response for /sites/{hostname}:/{server-relative-path}:/drive/root.

Looks like Graph API do not add support for the particular endpoint drive/root when using server-relative URL. Currently, we have to use site-id in the request.

You could submit the feature request here: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-365-developer-platform/idb-p/Microsoft365DeveloperPlatform
