Using the Pages GraphAPI, HTML headers are not returned if they are set to be collapsed by default

I'm using GraphAPI to access site pages published in a Sharepoint site to retrieve the html content. Normally, the innerHtml field contains the html I am looking for. However, there are some pages that have their headers collapsed by default. In this case, only the content of the sections are returned, but the HTML headers (<h2> tags) themselves are not returned as part of the innerHtml or otherwise. Is this an issue with the API, or is there another way to retrieve the headers?

The call is (using the Pages API, which I am aware is in beta):

GET https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/sites/<site_id>/pages/<page_id>/microsoft.graph.sitePage?expand=webParts

    Hi @Tekin, Ender,

    Per my test, I am unable to get the HTML headers of the pages have their headers collapsed by default. It turns out to be a by-design one. Graph api doesn't support to fetch the resource when they are collapsed.
