what filtering options are supported MS graph api (List used) - Javascript?

Question

I'm working on a script and I can call the below Graph API endpoint.

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/insights/used

without any issue. But I would like to use filter like so:

var srchStr = "ABC" - Name of site
     
graphEndPoint: "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/insights/used?$filter=ResourceVisualization/containerDisplayName eq '"+ srchStr + "'"

graphEndPoint:"https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/insights/used?$filter=substringof('"+ srchStr + "', ResourceVisualization/containerDisplayName)"

But I keep getting error:

{"error":{"code":"BadRequest","message":"Invalid filter clause","innerError

My goal is to list the documents that a user has viewed or modified for a specific document library.

Is this possible?

Answer 1

You cannot apply filter query based on the ContainerDisplayName property.

Also, ContainerDisplayName property does not provide the name of specific document library. It is:

A string describing where the item is stored. For example, the name of a SharePoint site or the user name identifying the owner of the OneDrive storing the item.

Source: resourceVisualization resource type

---

Also, The contains or substringof string operator is currently not supported on any Microsoft Graph resources.

Source: Use query parameters to customize responses

---

Currently, you can filter on containerType property, but it will only tell you if the file is stored in SharePoint site or OneDrive for Business.

Example:

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/insights/used?$filter=ResourceVisualization/containerType eq 'Site'

Answer 2

We cannot filter on the property 'ContainerDisplayName'.

I did a test in Graph explorer and got this error: "The property 'ContainerDisplayName' does not support filtering."
