Hi everyone,
I am looking for a way to search a file with a specific sha1 hash. Is it possible to search the metadata of a file in onedrive? This would be great to look for duplicates before uploading the file.

I would be thankful for every useful hint.

Greetings Marc

    Yes, it is possible to search the metadata of a file in OneDrive. You can use the /drives/{drive-id}/root/search(q='{search-query}') endpoint to search for files with a specific SHA1 hash. You can also use the $expand, $select, $skipToken, $top, and $orderby OData query parameters to customize the response. For more information, please refer to the Microsoft Graph documentation.
