Excellent, very good way to teach how to use the API. All work very well. For me, the hard part was create the API on AZURE, my account had a issue with Chrome. Instead I used Edge and work 100%.

[@jiejenn]

I had the same issue with Chrome as well.

I'm a little confused about GRAPH_API_ENDPOINT, how do I get that

[@simmonslucas]

Good stuff. Thanks, young man.

When I try to upload the file of size 2.5MB using Postman I get an error like ,
{
"error": {
"code": "invalidRequest",
"message": "The Content-Range header is missing or malformed."
}
}

[@jiejenn]

You may want to use the regular upload function.

@@jiejenn Thanks for the reply. I sorted the issue. But it will be really helpful if we can have this demo or samples in nodejs..

[@jiejenn]

I don't know JavaScript.

Is it possible to do this stuff in async way? I used asyncio + aiohttp and have that error
aiohttp.client_exceptions.ClientResponseError: 416, message='Requested Range Not Satisfiable'

[@ipad9075]

Thanks for useful video! My code stopped in chunk_data = upload.read(chunk_size) with error "ValueError: read of closed file". How can I solve this?

Hi, If possible can you please make a video on creating upload session for attaching large attachments to outlook using ms graph

[@vincentDev84]

i need it

[@abhijitbansode9324]

Nice explanation. Wondering if the process would be same to upload to a SharePoint folder instead of OneDrive folder.

[@Vivi-mq5uz]

Thanks for the author's sharing. Watching the author's video on Microsoft Graph api is very helpful to me, and I would like to ask what I should do if I want to upload the whole directory？

[@Vivi-mq5uz]

maybe my describe not accurate ,i would like say upload a folder

[@cl88888]

Great one! BTW, would you know the API to create "request file" of a folder in OneDrive for Business?

[@jiejenn]

Not sure what request file is.

[@cl88888]

@@jiejenn "Request files" link can be generated manually by right-click on a folder and select "request files" option in the context menu. I'd like to know if there's a way to generate this link via Graph API.

Where to get app id?

[@jonathancarlson8543]

wonder the same

[@elaia929]

Does Microsoft Graph API allow download of a file inside a folder?

[@jiejenn]

Of course. The tutorial how to download a file is actually going to be uploaded later today.

great tut, thanks ad

[@abdulkhalik759]

In java actual byte array lengths sent to server exceeds the chunk size. Never able to make it success😭

[@jiejenn]

I am not experienced with Java, so can't help you there.

[@abdulkhalik759]

@@jiejenn I have achieved it, my issue was related to byte array encoding. Thank you.

[@amitkikraft5687]

@@abdulkhalik759 Can you help me to fix this issue? I got error like The Content-Range header length does not match the provided number of bytes. with my java code.

[@abdulkhalik759]

@@amitkikraft5687 there is a particular way how you need to calculate ranges, share your sample code.

[@simonebollati5285]

is it possible to avoid the browser authentication part? my purpose would be to schedule a script that uploads a file every day forever, but once activated I have no way to access the machine. How could I do ? thanks

[@jiejenn]

This is something I still haven't figure it out. I would like to know the answer too.

[@chrisgreening9313]

Hey Simone! I have a very similar usecase - I got it to work by adding offline_access to the scopes. You only have to go through the browser authentication once and the token response will include both an access token AND a long-lived refresh token which you can then persist and use for subsequent access token refreshes.

[@StanislavGorchakov]

@@jiejenn Yes, it is possible to do when you choose Api Permissions for application as Application in Azure. After that you don't need to use authentication part

[@Capsonfernandes]

@@StanislavGorchakov Do you have any helpful links that may allow me to do this?
