graphClient.sites().byId(siteId).drives().byId(driveId).recent() .buildRequest(new ArrayList<>()).get()

Exception

Thanks for response.

We need to get all items in a drive under a site. so we can't use me() as part of search. So please help us what needs to be modified in below search as we are fetching by site Id and drive Id

graphClient.sites().byId(siteId).drives().byId(driveId).recent().buildRequest(new ArrayList<>()).get()

Also we are using we are trying to search by date to fetch the items as below

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/siteId/drives/driveId/root/search(q='2023-03-27')

But we are not getting accurate match for the date. Our objective is to search by lastModifiedDateTime so that we can manipulate on the modified results.

Please help us on this
