Hello, once again I have a question about the MS Graph SDK for ASP Net Core (C#):

Do I have to be logged in to start the search from Files(One Drive) ? Or is this also possible as daemon-services (like webhooks with MS Graph)(not delegated) ?

About answer I would be very happy

    Hi @MSAPINewbie Yes, we can search Files in One Drive without logged in.

    1. To do that we need to add app permissions. The permissions are shown in the figure below.

    2. Then click Grant admin content for ...

      Or use the tenant-wide admin consent URL follows the following format: https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenant-id}/adminconsent?client_id={client-id}

    Hello and thank you for your answer,

    I have the problem with my daemon application that when I want to search a special folder for a file the count is always 0.
    By the way, I can still run a webhook (with delta query) with my Deamon application.

     private async Task<IDriveItemSearchCollectionPage> SearchFiles(GraphServiceClient graphClient){
  var search = await graphClient.Drives["{Drive-id}"]
                                 .Items["{user-id]"]
                                 .Search("Filename") //todo
                                 .request()
                                 .GetAsync();

     return search;
 }
