Get a site resource by path

  • Article

Namespace: microsoft.graph

Retrieve properties and relationships for a site resource. A site resource represents a team site in SharePoint.

In addition to retrieving a site by ID you can retrieve a site based on server-relative URL path.

  • Site collection hostname (contoso.sharepoint.com)
  • Site path, relative to server hostname.

There is also a reserved site identifier, root, which always references the root site for a given target, as follows:

  • /sites/root: The tenant root site.
  • /groups/{group-id}/sites/root: The group's team site.
