How can I create an OneDrive folder?

[cywang16]

I cannot figure out the command creating a folder in OneDrive. Seems to be using New-MgDriveItem, but cannot figure out the right command line options.

Can anyone help? Thanks.

This is a bug on our end. It looks like all navigation properties of a driveItem entityType are not being translated into OpenAPI as paths. In this case, Children NavigationProperty is missing.

To create a folder, one needs to call /users/{user-id}/drive/items/{parent-item-id}/children. See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/driveitem-post-children?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http

@cywang16 A workaround for this would be to use Invoke-MgGraphRequest:

$Folder = @{
    "name" = "New Folder"
    "folder" = @{}
    "@microsoft.graph.conflictBehavior" = "rename"
}
Invoke-MgGraphRequest -Uri "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/$UserId/drive/root/children" -Method POST -Body $Folder

We are tracking the missing */children APIs in #813, and a fix will be provided in the upcoming release.

Closing as a duplicate of #813.
