Using SDK to get file with known path

[leetheman]

Hi all, I'm really struggling here with the C# SDK.

Quite simply, I have a file path for an item I have uploaded in SharePoint e.g

https://xxxx.sharepoint.com/sites/zzzzzzz/Shared%20Documents/file.xlsb

Is there a way to use the C# SDK to retreive this file?

So far I've tried using:

var result = await graphClient.Drives[DRIVE_ID].Root.ItemWithPath(filePath).GetAsync();

but using the file path above, I get a "resource not found" error. Any ideas?

Just to add to this.

If I use the Graph Api endpoint:

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/{site-id}/drive/root/children

I can get all the files and their Ids easily.

I would assume that this maps to:

graphClient.Sites[{site-id}].Drive.Root.Children

HOWEVER, Drive does not have a Root item unless I GetAsync. Problem is, when I do, Drive.Root is null?

Thanks for raising this @leetheman

Any chance the guidance at the link below is helpful?

Also, note that drive/root/children is actually a shorthand for drive/items/root/children so the root can be replaced with items/root
