Graph createLink method not returning any url when type is embed

Question

Hey there,

I've been trying to use graph.microsoft.com/v1.0 to retrieve an iframe HTML in order to be able to embed a Word document in edit mode on a web app. But so far all I get is this error:

{
"error": {
"code": "notSupported",
"message": "Requested sharingLink type is not yet available.",
"innerError": {
"date": "2022-02-18T15:48:38",
"request-id": "ad9ac825-42b6-429c-89b0-8ec623f918b7",
"client-request-id": "ad9ac825-42b6-429c-89b0-8ec623f918b7"
}
}
}

Strange part is that I can get a valid link when using type "edit" or "view".

I'm doing a Post request to the URL:
https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/drives/{DRIVEID}/items/{ITEMID}/createlink

and using the JSON body:
{
"type": "embed"
}

Any help? Cheers,
Daniel

Hi @Daniel Sousa | Flexmeester ,

As per documentation driveitem-createlink, it is currently supported for OneDrive Personal only.

Clip from the documentation:

When you attempt createLink for OneDrive for Business or SharePoint Online, it will return this error message "notSupported".

Hope this helps.
