Large (> 4mb) File Attachments

问题:

Using the Microsoft Graph API, it is possible to add file attachments to messages as described here. However, since REST requests have a total size limit of 4mb this does not allow for very large attachments.

A resumable upload session allows for larger uploads that may be referenced by reference attachments providing a download link. However, these links are obviously short-lived and we would like to clean up the files at some point.

Is there any way to create a message with persistent file attachments larger than 4mb? Thinking along the lines of a DriveItem->FileAttachment conversion here, but could not find anything on the topic. Help is very much appreciated!

As of May 2017 you can use the referenceAttachment resource type. This allows you to attach a DriveItem from the OneDrive to a message:

POST https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/me/messages/AAMkAGE1M88AADUv0uFAAA=/attachments
Content-type: application/json
Content-length: 319

{ 
    "@odata.type": "#microsoft.graph.referenceAttachment", 
    "name": "Personal pictures", 
    "sourceUrl": "https://contoso.com/personal/mario_contoso_net/Documents/Pics", 
    "providerType": "oneDriveConsumer", 
    "permission": "Edit", 
    "isFolder": "True" 
}
