byDriveItemId.patch() returns 204 No Content and fails on OneDrive Personal Accounts #2546
Description
Describe the bug
Using the graph sdk client I can't update (rename, move, or change any metadata) when I'm specifiying an itemId, instead of the path to the actual file.
Expected behavior
Works the same as on OneDrive Business.
How to reproduce
package com.microsoft;
import com.azure.core.credential.AccessToken;
import com.azure.core.credential.TokenCredential;
import com.azure.core.credential.TokenRequestContext;
import com.microsoft.graph.models.DriveItem;
import com.microsoft.graph.serviceclient.GraphServiceClient;
import java.time.OffsetDateTime;
import reactor.core.publisher.Mono;
public class App {
public static void main(String[] args) {
final GraphServiceClient graphClient = new GraphServiceClient(
new TokenCredential() {
@Override
public Mono<AccessToken> getToken(TokenRequestContext request) {
return Mono.just(new AccessToken(
"***",
OffsetDateTime.now().plusDays(1)));
}
});
final DriveItem newMetadata = new DriveItem();
newMetadata.setName("000");
final DriveItem result = graphClient
.drives().byDriveId("097…")
.items().byDriveItemId("97…!s0c…")
.patch(newMetadata);
if (result instanceof DriveItem) {
System.out.println(result.getName());
} else {
System.out.println("Patch returned null");
}
}
}
SDK Version
No response
Latest version known to work for scenario above?
Microsoft Graph REST API before 2025-11-12.
Known Workarounds
Using drives/{driveId}/root:/path/to/file to patch, but according to the documentation page using Item IDs is preferred, also this option isn't exposed in the Java Sdk.
