Graph API Upload a file in to Teams Channel Via Share point folder || issue with ".docx,.doc,.ppt"

Question

Hi Team, I am working on uploading attachments to the team's channel by using graph API, As per the document we have uploaded files to the share point folder and then get the details of attachments and construct the attachment details as objects to send messages to team's channel.

As per my observation if we try to update txt, pdf it is working as expected but with the ".docx,.doc,.ppt etc..," we are facing an issue i.e web URL is provided by API for "pdf/txt" content if different for ".doc, .docx"

After posted to Share point folder :

txt/doc : weburl is "https://italentcorporation1.sharepoint.com/sites/ICS-DEV/Shared%20Documents/General/sample.pdf"
docx/doc : web url is "https://italentcorporation1.sharepoint.com/sites/ICS-DEV/_layouts/15/Doc.aspx?sourcedoc=%7B484E72FC-1E20-406B-92B4-B287591FA3CA%7D&file=sample1.doc&action=default&mobileredirect=true"

Steps to Reproduce the issue.

file is : sample1.doc

As per document we have grab the our attachment ID is the GUID in the eTag of the driveItem, your attachment contentURL is the webUrl of the driveItem's

Request Body :
