I would like to retrieve specifically the shortcuts that users have in the root directory of their OneDrive. There are a few endpoints I've tried that I can use to search for files:

  • /me/drive/root/search(q='') - recursive, includes shortcuts
  • /me/drive/root/children - none recursive, no shortcuts
  • /me/drive/list/items?$expand=driveItem&select=driveItem - recursive, includes shortcuts

All of these have one of two problems: they don't include the shortcuts, or they are recursive.

What I really want is a way to find all of the shortcut files in a specific folder, non-recursively.

I've also tried using all of these endpoints with the $filter query param to no avail as I believe that none of these are build to handle that, according to the Microsoft docs.

Is there anything that I'm not aware of that I can do to accomplish this?

  • Could you explain what you mean by "shortcuts"? This isn't a property or collection of a DriveItem, so it's unclear which property/collection you are looking to retrieve. Commented Jun 23 at 19:50
  • @MarcLaFleur By shortcut I mean a shortcut to a folder in the user's OneDrive - as in you click on it and it leads you to the folder for which you created the respective shortcut. The DriveItem resource has a property called the RemoteItem, which is file that the shortcut leads to. I am trying to find a way to query for only those items in a user's OneDrive Commented Jun 26 at 16:02
