OneDrive v7.2 File Picker

To retrieve the driveId for SharePoint sites, you can use the Microsoft Graph API. You can use the @odata.context property to obtain the driveId of the SharePoint site. The @odata.context property is a JSON object that contains metadata about the response. It includes a URL that points to the metadata document for the response. You can use this URL to retrieve the driveId of the SharePoint site.

There is no direct API to retrieve the driveId from the response obtained from OneDrive File Picker v7.2. However, you can use the Microsoft Graph API to retrieve the driveId. You can use the fileId obtained from OneDrive File Picker v7.2 to make a request to Microsoft Graph API and retrieve the driveId.

Here is an example of how you can retrieve the driveId using Microsoft Graph API:

-GET /v1.0/drives/{drive-id}/items/{item-id}

-You can replace {drive-id} with the ID of the drive and {item-id} with the ID of the file obtained from OneDrive File Picker v7.2.

In summary

The OneDrive File Picker JavaScript SDK v7.2 uses the Microsoft Graph API to interact with files on OneDrive1. When a file is picked, an API call is made to https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/drives/{drive-id}/items/{item-id}/?select=id,name,size,@content.downloadUrl.

However, it seems that the OneDrive File Picker v7.2 does not directly provide the driveId in its response. It only provides the id, name, downloadUrl, and odata.context.

As for using the @odata.context to retrieve the driveId, it’s not clear whether this is a recommended approach or if it could cause any concerns. The official documentation or the OneDrive Developer forum2 might provide more insights on this.

If you need to work with SharePoint sites, you might need to use a different approach or API that can provide the driveId for SharePoint sites, as the /me/drive API does not retrieve files attached from SharePoint sites.
