I have a SharePoint URL of the form https://organizationname.sharepoint.com/sites/....
I want to use the Graph API to get a list of all resources in this drive. Reading the API documentation it appears that I require the drive-id of this drive in order to perform this request.
/drives/{drive-id}/root/children
Also, according to the answer to a similar stackoverflow question it appears there are no APIs to convert SharePoint URL to OneDrive driveId. Is there a possible workaround? Is there any way to programmatically get a list of resources from a SharePoint URL?
If your SharePoint URL is https://organizationname.sharepoint.com/sites/yourSiteName
, then you can issue a request like this via the Graph API (scope Sites.Read.All
might be required):
client.api("/sites/organizationname.sharepoint.com:/sites/yourSiteName:/drives").get();
That request will return something like this:
{
"@odata.context": "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/$metadata#drives",
"value": [
{
"createdDateTime": "2021-07-24T23:35:00Z",
"description": "",
"id": "b!A1234567-ZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBA9876543210",
"lastModifiedDateTime": "2021-08-12T16:39:23Z",
"name": "Dokumente",
"webUrl": "https://organizationname.sharepoint.com/sites/yourSIteName/folderName",
"driveType": "documentLibrary",
"createdBy": {
"user": {
"displayName": "abc"
}
},
"lastModifiedBy": {
"user": {
"email": "bla@organizationame.onmicrosoft.com",
"id": "12345678-4321-4321-4321-012345678901",
"displayName": "zz"
}
},
"owner": {
"group": {
"email": "x@y.onmicrosoft.com",
"id": "09876543-1234-1234-1234-012345678901",
"displayName": "Owner of something"
}
},
"quota": {
"deleted": 345678,
"remaining": 27487788453406,
"state": "normal",
"total": 27487790694400,
"used": 96120
}
}
]
}
The id
under description
is the drive-id
. With that you can get /root/children
like so:
client.api("/sites/yourorganizationname.sharepoint.com/drives/b!A1234567-ZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBA9876543210/root/children").get();
While there is no single API or algorithm that allows you to programmatically get a list of resources from a SharePoint URL, you can achieve the same with two Graph API requests.
