How can I upload a file to a personal OneDrive account?

Hi, I'm working on a service that will automatically upload files that a user has requested periodically to their OneDrive. While I've managed to get this working for users with a Microsoft 365 account, I haven't been able to successfully upload a file for users with a personal Microsoft account / to their personal OneDrive.

Does the this SDK support uploading files to a personal OneDrive, and if so how would I do that?

A short example of what I have working for a Microsoft 365 account is in this repository - https://github.com/chriswilding/upload-file-to-onedrive.

The same technique does not work for a personal OneDrive. With a Microsoft 365 OneDrive account I was only able to upload a file in a two step process, first PUTing the file, and the POSTing the content. With a personal OneDrive account both setting and not setting the content results in an error.

         name := "example.txt"
	contentType := "text/csv"
	data := []byte("Hello,World!")

	newFile := models.NewFile()
	newFile.SetMimeType(&contentType)

	fileItem := models.NewDriveItem()
	fileItem.SetName(&name)
	fileItem.SetAdditionalData(map[string]interface{}{
		"@microsoft.graph.conflictBehavior": "replace",
	})
	fileItem.SetFile(newFile)

	// When trying to upload to a personal OneDrive account, if the content is set the a error is returned -
	// Error creating file item: [child] A stream property 'content' has a value in the payload. In OData, stream property must not have a value, it must only use property annotations.
	// error: invalidRequest
	// error: [child] A stream property 'content' has a value in the payload. In OData, stream property must not have a value, it must only use property annotations.
	//
	// However, if the content is not set then a different error is returned -
	// Error creating file item: Cannot create a file without content
	// error: invalidRequest
	// error: Cannot create a file without content
	// fileItem.SetContent(data)

	createdFileItem, err := client.Drives().ByDriveId("aDriveID").Items().
		ByDriveItemId("aParentDriveItem").Children().
		Post(context.Background(), fileItem, nil)

If OneDrive is the only thing you are interested in, try this module: https://github.com/goh-chunlin/go-onedrive

This "SDK" is just a trash pile of generated Go files.

This solution worked for me.

name := "example.txt"
data := []byte("Hello,World!")
c, err := client.Drives().ByDriveId("aDriveID").Items().ByDriveItemId("aParentDriveItem").Children().ByDriveItemId1(name).Content().Put(context.Background(), data, nil)
if err != nil {
	fmt.Printf("error creating file: %v\n", err)
	return
}
