SharePoint: Graph api UpdateAsync returns itemNotFound but still updates the file's name

Question

Hi,

when I'm trying to move a file using Graph api UpdateAsync() method, if the Id of ParentReference is wrong, Graph api returns itemNotFound exception and doesn't move the file but still renames the file. This is my request:

             var destDriveItem = new DriveItem
            {
                ParentReference = new ItemReference
                {
                    Id = destDriveFolder.Id,
                    DriveId = destDrive.Drive.Id
                },
                Name = newFileName
            };

            await graphClient.Sites[srcSiteId].Drives[srcDrive.Drive.Id].Items[srcDriveItem.Id]
                                .Request()
                                .UpdateAsync(destDriveItem);

Is there any flag that I can use to make the Update call atomic somehow?

Hi @sahar fiuzati hagh ,
Per my test, the code will run to update the item which id is srcDriveItem.Id in await graphClient.Sites[srcSiteId].Drives[srcDrive.Drive.Id].Items[srcDriveItem.Id] which
equivalent to PATCH /sites/{site-id}/drive/items/{item-id}. If you print the srcDriveItem.Id out. It might different with the id in ParentReference.
