Create permission for a fileStorageContainerType

Namespace: microsoft.graph

Important

APIs under the /beta version in Microsoft Graph are subject to change. Use of these APIs in production applications is not supported. To determine whether an API is available in v1.0, use the Version selector.

Create a user permission object, which adds this permission to a fileStorageContainerType. Only existing owners (users with the owner role in the permissions collection of the container type), SharePoint Embedded Administrators, or Global Administrators can add permissions.

The following constraints apply:

• A maximum of 3 permissions per container type is allowed. Adding a fourth permission returns a 400 Bad Request error.
• Duplicate permissions are treated as idempotent. If the specified user already has a permission on the container type, the service makes no changes and returns the existing permission resource in the response body with a 201 Created status, even though no new permission is created.
• Currently only the owner role is supported.

Note

• Guest users can't be recipients of container type permissions.
• Guest users can't perform this operation.

This API is available in the following national cloud deployments.

Global service	US Government L4	US Government L5 (DOD)	China operated by 21Vianet

Permissions

Choose the permission or permissions marked as least privileged for this API. Use a higher privileged permission or permissions only if your app requires it. For details about delegated and application permissions, see Permission types. To learn more about these permissions, see the permissions reference.

Permission type	Least privileged permission	Higher privileged permissions
Delegated (work or school account)	FileStorageContainerType.Manage.All	Not available.
Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Not supported.	Not supported.
Application	Not supported.	Not supported.

HTTP request

POST /storage/fileStorage/containerTypes/{fileStorageContainerTypeId}/permissions

Request headers

Name	Description
Authorization	Bearer {token}. Required. Learn more about authentication and authorization.
Content-Type	application/json. Required.

Request body

In the request body, supply a JSON representation of the permission object.

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

Property	Type	Description
grantedToV2	sharePointIdentitySet	The identity of the user to grant the permission to. Only the user property with the user's id is supported; group and application identities aren't supported. Required.
roles	String collection	The roles granted to the user. Currently only owner is supported. Required.

Response

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

If the request exceeds the limit of three permissions per container type, this method returns a 400 Bad Request response code.

Examples

Request

The following example shows a request to add an owner permission to a container type.

HTTP

POST https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/storage/fileStorage/containerTypes/de988700-d700-020e-0a00-0831f3042f00/permissions
Content-Type: application/json

{
  "roles": ["owner"],
  "grantedToV2": {
    "user": {
      "id": "11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111"
    }
  }
}

JavaScript

const options = {
	authProvider,
};

const client = Client.init(options);

const permission = {
  roles: ['owner'],
  grantedToV2: {
    user: {
      id: '11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111'
    }
  }
};

await client.api('/storage/fileStorage/containerTypes/de988700-d700-020e-0a00-0831f3042f00/permissions')
	.version('beta')
	.post(permission);

Important

Microsoft Graph SDKs use the v1.0 version of the API by default, and do not support all the types, properties, and APIs available in the beta version. For details about accessing the beta API with the SDK, see Use the Microsoft Graph SDKs with the beta API.

For details about how to add the SDK to your project and create an authProvider instance, see the SDK documentation.
