Hi @B Jayachithra

I have tried to replicate your scenario and I am facing the same error when the destinationId or message id is wrong. Please refer to the below sample screenshot.

1. Please make sure you are using the correct message id. To verify you can use this GET /users/{id | userPrincipalName}/messages/{id} Graph API endpoint
2. Also please make sure you are using the correct destinationId. To get the destination folder ID use this GET /users/{id | userPrincipalName}/mailFolders Graph API

After passing the right id I was able to get desired result.

For more details, please refer to this documentation.

Hope this helps.
