Search using Graph SDK not working, unable to find GeoLocation code.

Question

Hello,

I am trying to use Search using Graph sdk 5.x.

I am able to fetch search results given that i pass region.
But i am not able to fetch region dynamically.
SiteCollection resource has datlocationcode null for single geo tenant.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/resources/sitecollection?view=graph-rest-1.0
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/dev/solution-guidance/multigeo-discovery
as mentioned in above link.

->I have also tried with graphClient.Organization , it doesnt have geo location.
->Also i have tried to give delegate permission for file.readall ,site.readall, search.config but the below code does't work without region and i am not able to fetch region dynamically.

->What i want is to fetch region dynamically or make work below code without using region.

Please help.

Please refer below code :

   SearchRequest request = new SearchRequest();
                string searchTerm = "test path:\"https://obscurepi.sharepoint.com/sites/SiteInfi2022\" AND candlelight";
                SearchQuery query = new SearchQuery();
                query.QueryString = searchTerm;
                List<EntityType?> entityType = new List<EntityType?>();
                entityType.Add(EntityType.DriveItem);
                entityType.Add(EntityType.ListItem);
                entityType.Add(EntityType.List);

                Dictionary<string, object> keyValues = new Dictionary<string, object>();
                keyValues.Add("region", "IND");
               

                request.Query = query;
                request.EntityTypes = entityType;
                //request.AdditionalData = keyValues;

                QueryPostRequestBody qprb = new QueryPostRequestBody();
                 qprb.AdditionalData = keyValues;

                qprb.Requests = new List<SearchRequest> { request };


                var result1 = GraphClient.Search.Query.PostAsync(qprb).Result;

Hi @Parth Jani,

You can register app-only authentication to access graph api. Get an app-only access token and use it for authentication. Please refer to the following document
