Hello,

I have a situation in which I cannot see an Excel-file on OneDrive that has been shared with a specific user from Sharepoint (on the file level the user was given access through -> Manage Access -> Direct access). The issue is that when I log on with this user, I can see the file on Office.com -> My Content -> Shared:

User's image

But when searching for the file on OneDrive -> Shared, it does not appear at all:

User's image

It is even more curious that the same file has been shared with another account from Sharepoint and it is visible for that account on both Office and OneDrive. The reason I am asking this is because we are using a specific connector that uses the Graph OneDrive /SharedWithMe call to obtain Excel-files from Sharepoint.

Can someone elaborate on this process and what might be causing the difference between the two user accounts?
