Endpoint hint in file picker for oneDrive for education.

Kiddom Engineering 21

Hi team,
From the doc, it said that we can skip auth flow if giving the right access token and corresponding url in Endpoint hint field.

I wonder if the accounts for education have the same Endpoint hint as OneDrive for business? e.g. https://contoso-my.sharepoint.com/personal/foo_contoso_onmicrosoft_com/

Thanks,
Kiddom team

Hi @Diana Wanjuhi
Here is the file picker SDK documentation I mentioned https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/onedrive/developer/controls/file-pickers/js-v72/open-file?view=odsp-graph-online#advanced-options

There is a field called endpoitHint

It says

OneDrive API endpoints includes OneDrive personal, OneDrive for Business or SharePoint Online. The value of endpointHint could be api.onedrive.com for OneDrive personal, the OneDrive for Business URL or a SharePoint document library URL, ex. https://contoso-my.sharepoint.com/personal/foo_contoso_onmicrosoft_com/ or https://contoso.sharepoint.com/shared%20documents/.

It doesn't mention the OneDrive for education accounts so I am wonder if it uses the same pattern as OneDrive for business

Thanks,
