How to generate a direct download link from the shared OneDrive link

Hi
This error show because Microsoft has recently changed the format of shared OneDrive links, which has caused your code to stop working and generate a 401 Unauthorized exception. The shared link you provided in the example is in a different format than what your code is expecting. To resolve this issue, you need to update your code to handle the new link format. Here's how you can modify your code to generate the direct download link:
try this
csharp
// shared OneDrive link example
// https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=XXXXXXX&id=XXXXXXX&resid=XXXXXXX
if (string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(sharingURL))
return string.Empty;
var uri = new Uri(sharingURL);
var queryParams = HttpUtility.ParseQueryString(uri.Query);
var directlyUrl = $"https://api.onedrive.com/v1.0/shares/u!{Uri.EscapeDataString(queryParams["resid"])}/root/content";

Here's what the updated code does:
It parses the shared link using Uri and HttpUtility.ParseQueryString to extract the necessary query parameters.It constructs the direct download link by using the resid query parameter and the api.onedrive.com endpoint. The resid parameter is URL-encoded using Uri.EscapeDataString.

The resulting directlyUrl will look like this:https://api.onedrive.com/v1.0/shares/u!XXXXXXX/root/content


Note -: Make sure to replace the sharingURL variable with the actual shared link you're using
