I have a requirement where I need to archive files created/uploaded through SharePoint.
I have been looking at the Graph API documentation which leads me to these two calls
/sites/{site-id}/drive Access the default drive (document library) for the given site.
/sites/{site-id}/drives Enumerate the drives (document libraries) under the site.
I can then work with the drive to access files through the delta etc
From what I can see is that all the files uploaded/created through SharePoint are saved in their respective Drives. Is my understanding correct? Is there anywhere else the files could be stored?
The terminology can be confusing, but you use drives in Microsoft Graph to work with document libraries in SharePoint.
You can use /sites/{site-id}/drives to list the document libraries in a site.
You can then use /sites/{site-id}/drives/{drive-id}/root/children to list the files in the document library.
The response in the screen capture above includes information about SampleDocument001.pdf in the Graph Documents library.
