How to use filter in Microsoft Graph API to get SharePoint items?

Here I am trying to filter data based on created date. At 1st I tried in Graph Explorer and it's working.

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/messages?$filter=createdDateTime ge 2017-09-04&$select=subject,lastModifiedDateTime

Now trying to implement same in Dell Boomi. This is resource path to pull all the items: sites/{id}.sharepoint.com:/sites/{id}:/lists/{list_id}/items it's working fine.

After that I am adding filter condition:

sites/{id}.sharepoint.com:/sites/{id}:/lists/{list_id}/items?$filter=lastModifiedDateTime ge 2017-09-04&$select=email,displayName

Here is getting error. This is the error message:

<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Bad Request</TITLE>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" Content="text/html; charset=us-ascii"></HEAD>
<BODY><h2>Bad Request</h2>
<hr><p>HTTP Error 400. The request is badly formed.</p>

Can some one help on this, how to fix this issue? Here is the Sample data.

Solution

  • Short Answer

    Use the auto generated SharePoint list item fields Created or Modified

    /items?expand=fields&$filter=fields/Modified gt '2018-01-01'

    Important Note

    To perform filter queries on these fields, you will have to either:

    Explenation

    It seems like filtering on the values that are returned by the graph endpoint (such as lastModifiedDateTime, createdDateTime, etc.) is not supported, since requests like /items&$filter=lastModifiedDateTime ge '2018-01-01' will return a "Invalid filter clause" error.
