Graph API to invite user works only under "root"

[Ivan Palikuca]

I am trying to use Graph API to invite user to a folder that is hosted in SharePoint Online. I am using following API:

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/groups/{groupId}/drive/items/{itemId}/invite

When my folder that I am attempting to share is located under "Root" of document library no problem this works fine, but if my folder is located under "root/General" (because I want to be visible in teams easily API Returns error below. Any ideas?

{

 "error": { 

 "code": "invalidRequest",

 "message": "The request is malformed or incorrect.",

  "innerError": {

   "request-id": "{id}",

   "date": "{date}"

  }

 }

}

I have tested the case, both cases are working fine in my end. Actually you have to replace the {itemId} by <sub folder id> and you should not include the sub folder name (General) in graph url.

For example :

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/groups/{groupId}/drive/items/{folder_Id}/invite

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/groups/{groupId}/drive/items/{sub_folder_Id}/invite

You should not provide like below URL :

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/groups/{groupId}/drive/items/General/{sub_folder_Id}/invite
