The packages above add MS Graph and MSAL libraries as well as a standard. Open the command prompt of choice and type the following to create the console app and add the appropriate dependencies/NuGet packages: mkdir OneDriveWithMsGraphĭotnet add package -version 3.1.2ĭotnet add package -version 4.10.0ĭotnet add package Microsoft.Graph -version 3.0.1 The device code flow is a type of authentication flow that is designed for native applications (desktop, mobile…) which are by nature considered “insecure” (in the sense that you do not have direct control over the execution context). MSAL (Microsoft Authentication Library)Īnd since I'm using a console app, I am going with Device Code Flow for the authentication.For this project, we have the following components: Now that I have a good grasp of what I can do with with MS Graph, I'm ready to start playing with the code. And it took a little bit of experimentation and looking up the Graph API documentation to find out how to make calls to my OneDrive via the MS Graph Files API.īut before we even touch the code, we can get a feel of what it looks like to work with the Graph API for OneDrive via the Graph Explorer - I truly love this tool as it allows me to get a quick glance into the possibilities of MS Graph. The code for this project is loosely based on this.

The nice thing is that I didn't have to start from scratch and I was able to get the project off the ground quickly using one of the existing MS Graph tutorials. Especially since MS Graph now allows you to interact with your OneDrive data programmatically using.
