Description

Cannot make a PUT request to upload file into OneDrive. The API returns Unable to read JSON request payload error. The docs here say to use text/plain content type, but the library here has it hardcoded to JSON.

Steps to Reproduce

const filename = 'file.csv';
const content = 'content';
await.client.api(`/drives/${this.driveId}/items/${this.folderId}:/${filename}:/content`).put(content);

Actual behavior: PUT was sent with invalid content type

Usage Information

I've changed my code so that it sets content type explicitly:

const filename = 'file.csv';
const content = 'content';
await.client.api(`/drives/${this.driveId}/items/${this.folderId}:/${filename}:/content`)
    .headers({'Content-Type': 'text/plain'})
    .put(content);

The request now matches documentation, but I still get an error:

  statusCode: 400,
  code: 'BadRequest',

@koros, can you have a look?

[vladtsit]

Hi @jakubriegel have you solved the problem?

[jakubriegel]

@vladtsit No, as this issue needs to be resolved on library level. But I have a workaround.

I used https://learn.microsoft.com/pl-pl/onedrive/developer/rest-api/api/driveitem_createuploadsession?view=odsp-graph-online. I create an upload url with the Client provided by Microsoft and then use received upload url to PUT the file with Axios.
