Getting user information with GRAPH API

ReemaKasliwal1 — Tue, 15 Nov 2022 16:14:13 GMT

Hi,

We have recently shifted to OAuth for SharePoint file upload and download and doing it via GRAPH APIs
I am trying to upload a file to share point folder and if the file is locked/opened by some other user , it gets error message "resource locked", as shown below.

Error Message: {"error":{"code":"notAllowed","innerError":{"code":"resourceLocked"},"message":"The resource you are attempting to access is locked"}}

however it does not return which user has locked the file/resource in HTTP error response.
is there any way to get this information ?

we are using the VBO 'Microsoft Graph - SharePoint Upload Session'

Thanks in Advance.

Hi @ReemaKasliwal1,

There's no action for this in the current Graph connectors on the DX, but as I understand it this capability does exist within the Graph API. From what I've read, you can use the OData capabilities of Graph to get a list of the activities that have been performed on a file. If the file is locked, that will include information about who locked it and when. See the following Stack Overflow thread for more details:
