Hi @Bracha Steinberg ,
When we use the deltaLink URL for the first time, DriveItems that have been created and deleted prior to the initial delta query won't be returned that’s why we get null value (for example refer below screenshot).
After generating the delta token if there is any change occurred in the drive then it can be fetched using this delta token (for example refer below screenshot).
Also please note, you can fetch only latest modified version of a file with delta query.
Please refer the below documentation links for more information:
driveitem-delta
Use delta query to track changes in Microsoft Graph data
