Create RequestBuilders for structural properties that need to be accessed directly
e.g. mailboxsettings
and
https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/print/printers/{id}/jobs/{id}/configuration
Currently we don't know when this is possible and instead of generating RequestBuilders for every structural property we don't generate any. We should use a capability annotation to indicate that support is required. AB#7626
Would we want to support accessing arbitrary structural properties as the API supports this? I can't think of any reason other than slightly simplifying the scenario to update a single property in .NET.
For example, I can do the following:
GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/jobtitle
PATCH https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/jobtitle
{
"value":"Marketing Director2"
}
Instead of doing:
GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me?$select=jobtitle
PATCH https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/jobtitle
{
"jobTitle":"Marketing Director3"
}
We could enable scenarios like these for .NET:
// Get the type parameter for the property when the property is specified.
client.Me.GetProperty(u => u.MailboxSettings).Request().GetAsync<MailboxSettings>();
// Don't need to new up an object to update a single property.
client.Me.SetProperty(u => u.JobTitle, "Marketing Director2").Request().UpdateAsync();
closing since this is now supported by the conversion library and kiota https://github.com/microsoftgraph/msgraph-sdk-dotnet/blob/e3d59b67608b7496804ff007f2b2da59ce22bd2e/src/Microsoft.Graph/Generated/Users/Item/MailboxSettings/MailboxSettingsRequestBuilder.cs#L12
