Issues hiding chat for user through Graph API

Issues hiding chat for user through Graph API

Akash Mudgal 0

I am having issues hiding chat with graph API.

The API call I am using is https://learn.microsoft.com/en-gb/graph/api/chat-hideforuser?WT.mc_id=M365-MVP-5001530&view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http

I am supplying the request body as following:

{
      user: {
        id: userId
      },
    }

The service principal I am using has delegated Chat.ReadWrite Permission, and the user Id being used in the request body is same as the caller user.

Still, I keep getting the error Bad Request:

{"error":{"code":"BadRequest","message":"The user for whom the chat should be hidden must be specified.","innerError":{"date":"2024-04-07T05:08:48","request-id":"667dab50-60a3-4b58-8103-cd210e69975f","client-request-id":"667dab50-60a3-4b58-8103-cd210e69975f"}}}

Please help me understand what am I doing wrong?

Regards,

Akash Mudgal

Hi @Akash Mudgal

As a test, try logging into Graph Explorer using your user and calling this endpoint.

The API call works in graph Explorer for same user, but when I make the same call in the code, it fails.

Here is the code:

const chatId = "xx:xx:xx:xx" const tenantId= "xx:xx:xx:xx" const accessToken = "accessTokenString const url = `https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/chats/${chatId}/hideForUser`; const headers = { Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`, }; const hideForUser = {user: {id: userId,tenantId: tenantId}}; const response = await fetch(url, { method: 'POST', // Use POST method to hide the chat headers, body: JSON.stringify(hideForUser), });

This gives me same error:

{"error":{"code":"BadRequest","message":"The user for whom the chat should be hidden must be specified.","innerError":{"date":"2024-04-07T05:08:48","request-id":"667dab50-60a3-4b58-8103-cd210e69975f","client-request-id":"667dab50-60a3-4b58-8103-cd210e69975f"}}}

Have you tried the Graph JS SDK?

const options = {
	authProvider,
};

const client = Client.init(options);

const hideForUser = {user: {id: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',tenantId: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'}};

await client.api('/chats/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/hideForUser')
	.post(hideForUser);

I moved from MS graph JS SDK to raw node fetch API code, because of its lack of support and issues with ES Javascript. All other Graph API calls that I'm using in my application are working, except for this one. The headers, body are being passed exactly as per the documentation, still, it fails.

@Akash Mudgal

Have you attempted to include the tenant ID in the request body as suggested in the documentation?

{
  "user": {
    "id" : "d864e79f-a516-4d0f-9fee-0eeb4d61fdc2",
    "tenantId": "2a690434-97d9-4eed-83a6-f5f13600199a"
  }
}

yes, of course, the code there is not the actual that I am using; I just posted a similar version of code for the forum:

here is the code:const chatId = "xx:xx:xx:xx"const tenantId= "xx:xx:xx:xx"

const userId = "xx:xx:xx:xx"

const accessToken = "accessTokenString

const url = https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/chats/${chatId}/hideForUser;

const headers = { Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`, }; const hideForUser = {user: {id: userId,tenantId: tenantId}}; const response = await fetch(url, { method: 'POST', // Use POST method to hide the chat headers, body: JSON.stringify(hideForUser), });
