Onedrive-api-docs: Invalid request - provided id is not suitable for the current host error when requesting a site

[rloehr]

When requesting drives for a site for a particular tenant, I'm encountering an error that states the provided id is not suitable for the current host.

Here is the flow I am following:
1) Search for site and get its id:

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites?search=portal4

Response:

I'm following docs here:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/onedrive/developer/rest-api/api/site_get

Is this a data problem on the backend?

Hi @rloehr, this is unfortunately a limitation in Graph at the moment where they do not currently send requests to the correct endpoint. A /sites query will hit the default endpoint for the tenant, and so if the provided id is for a site on a different endpoint we'll get a failure like this. Work is being done to resolve this limitation.

@ificator Thanks a lot for sharing the information. We had been banging our heads against this issue for some time. Any idea when this issue will be resolved?

@rloehr were you able to find a way around to this issue for the moment? We have the same use case and can really use any help in finding a solution.

Seems like lot is hanging on how soon our good friend @kevklam can resolve this issue for us.

[rloehr]

@MuhammadMobeen we don't have a workaround.

@ificator would this also allow access to OneDrive for Business personal sites? For example /sites/odb-my.sharepoint.com:/personal/some_user_onmicrosoft_com:/.

[kevitra]

Is this still a known issue? I am trying to access a user's OneDrive for Business and I receive this error. The same code accessing a SharePoint file is fine.

[smotti]

This works now. An example request using ODB hostname and a site-path:

GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/example-my.sharepoint.com:/personal/user_example_com:

{u'@odata.context': u'https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/$metadata#sites/$entity',

Thanks for the feedback. Do you know if the .Net Graph SDK supports sending a URL like "example-my.sharepoint.com:/personal/user_example_com:"? I have been trying but can't figure out the syntax. I am trying with ItemWithPath. For example (not working):
var items = await graphClient.Groups["teamId/groupId"].Drive.Root .ItemWithPath("example-my.sharepoint.com:/personal/user_example_com:").Children.Request().GetAsync();

[smotti]

Sorry with that I can't help. Never used .Net Graph SDK.
