Tried to download file from onedrive but InvalidAuthenticationToken

Question

Hey,

I acquired the filenames and successfully downloaded the files using Graph API by python script.

However, the files are all 1KB in size and cannot be opened.

I examined the response returned by my GET request:

"error": {"code": "InvalidAuthenticationToken", "message": "Access token is empty."}

It's strange because I utilized the same headers to retrieve the filename and all the related information.

Could you kindly provide assistance?

Thank you.
