HTTP request

POST /sites/{site-id}/pages

Request headers

Name Description
Authorization Bearer {token}. Required. Learn more about authentication and authorization.
Content-Type application/json for JSON content, including the required title property in multipart requests. Multipart requests use the multipart/form-data; boundary=your-boundary content type. Required.
Prefer include-unknown-enum-members. Use the Prefer: include-unknown-enum-members request header to get the following value in pageLayoutType, which is a evolvable enum: newsLink.

Request body

In the request body, supply a JSON representation of the newsLinkPage object. The body must contain required properties placed directly in the request body; however, to set a banner image by uploading an image, it must be in a multipart message format as shown in the example. For the banner image upload, you must send a multipart request because it involves binary data.

Notes:

  • To ensure successful parsing of the request body, the @odata.type=#microsoft.graph.newsLinkPage must be included in the request body.
  • Currently, to set the bannerImageWebUrl, the capability exists to upload the image bytes directly. These bytes get auto-saved in the site assets library, and the bannerImageWebUrl is then generated based on the persisted file. To achieve this, make a multipart request and set the @microsoft.graph.bannerImageWebUrlContent annotation to send the image content. For more details, see Example 2.

You can specify the following properties when you create a newsLinkPage.

Property Type Description
description String The descriptive text for the item. The maximum length limit is 250 characters. Optional. Inherited from baseSitePage.
newsWebUrl String The URL of the news article referenced by the newsLinkPage. It can be an external link. Required.
title String Title of the newsLinkPage. The maximum length limit is 110 characters. Required. Inherited from baseSitePage.

Response

If successful, this method returns a 201 Created response code and a newsLinkPage object in the response body.
