Nikitha-MSFT The link you mentioned just return the folder path, I'm interested to get files and it's content can you please refer me to the doc for it. As you mentioned it's not possible using graph then how can i access the file content as there any other api exists for it or it is not possible to access it using api at all?

Could you please check [this](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/attachment-get?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http#example-6-get-the-raw-contents-of-a-file-attachment-on-a-message) try if that helps

Can You please clarify if it is possible to access the file using api or not with relevant source if we can get it?- Nikitha-MSFTMay 26, 2021Former Employee
hidayat3676 _ you will receive the file shared in the channel using Get files folder, which give the information about the file but it does not provide file content. If you want to get the file content you need to get the message when you shared the file in channel and usinng that message id get the file content using Get the raw contents of a file attachment on a message.
