Working with SharePoint sites in Microsoft Graph

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/resources/sharepoint?view=graph-rest-1.0

API supports core activities:

  • Access to SharePoint sites, lists, and drives (document libraries)
  • Read-only support for site resources (no ability to create new sites)
  • Read-write support for lists, listItems, and driveItems
  • Read-write support for tenant-level SharePointSettings
  • Address resources by SharePoint ID, URL, or relative path

The SharePoint API exposes three major resource types:

  1. Site (top-level object)
  2. List
  3. ListItem
# Install the Microsoft Graph PowerShell SDK
Install-Module Microsoft.Graph
 
# Connect to Microsoft Graph
Connect-MgGraph -Scopes "Sites.ReadWrite.All"
 
# Create a new SharePoint site
$site = New-MgSite -DisplayName "New Site" -WebUrl "https://yourtenant.sharepoint.com/sites/newsite" -SiteCollection @{Hostname="yourtenant.sharepoint.com"; SiteCollectionType="TeamSite"}
