How to save email attachment in outlook email to local drive through Graph API

Question

Hi Team,

I am trying to read the mails and save the attachments in local drive from outlook by using Graph API, so here the problem is I am unable to save the mail attachments(.eml) but am able to save remaining like Microsoft Excel, Word, PDF, Image attachments. For all remaining items I am getting content bytes (Image 1) but only for .eml files I am unable to get the content bytes (Image 2).

Please check the below images for your reference.
