Overview

Use this Snap to modify the Share Permissions defined for a driveItem in your OneDrive or Shared Library (Document Library), at a given point in time.

Image Added

Prerequisites

  • A valid application in Azure Portal with appropriate permissions.
  • A valid Microsoft OneDrive license.
  • Write access to the folder/file mentioned in the Source Relative Path/ID.

Support for Ultra Pipelines

Works in Ultra Pipelines.

Limitations

You can update share permissions for only Share type invite defined in Share Item Snap.

Known Issues

Snaps in the Microsoft OneDrive Snap Pack have an in-built retry mechanism for failing connections and requests; but, a high volume of requests from a client might reach the throttling threshold. In such scenarios, the Microsoft Graph limits further requests from that client for a period of time and returns an HTTP status code 429 (Too many requests), thereby causing the requests to fail. Hence, we recommend you to keep a check on the number of requests emanating from your client instance.

Examples

Working with Share Permissions in OneDrive

Image Added

This Pipeline demonstrates how you can share an item and how we can get/update/delete the share permissions existing on a drive item. It assumes that you have configured your Azure application and the Snap accounts already. The Pipeline uses the following parameters. 

Image Added

We start with creating a new folder using the Create Folder Snap and then, share it with a recipient using Share Item Snap. Next, we update the share permissions for the item and delete them after use.

To share the item, we need to define the type of share, the recipients, roles, scope of share, expiry period, and so on, depending on our need. If you have selected the Share Type as Invite, you can update the share permissions on the item later.

After sharing the item, we use a Mapper to extract the Permission ID and the path of the shared item.

We pass this information to the Get Share Permissions Snap to fetch all the existing shared permissions on this folder (including the inherited share permissions).

Now, we pass these permission Ids retrieved to Update Shared Permissions Snap to change the permissions from read to write.

Using the Update Share Permissions Snap, we have updated all the existing share permissions to write access on the driveItem. We can now retrieve these permissions and delete them as and when needed. To do this, we use another Mapper Snap to capture the updated permission IDs, relative paths and delete them using the Delete Share Permissions Snap.
