How to download a file shared with me from SharePoint or OneDrive?
Hello @vgrem, I was able to download a file from my personal SharePoint following the ReadMe (create credential client_id and client_secret), but now I need to download a file shared with me by another account. The file is shared within my organization (so it's not public). Is that possible?
My current code is the following
class SharePoint:
def auth(self):
cred = ClientCredential(CLIENT_ID, CLIENT_SECRET)
ctx = ClientContext(URL_SITE).with_credentials(cred)
return ctx
def downloadFile(self, fileName, folderName):
conn = self.auth()
file = conn.web.get_file_by_guest_url(SHAREPOINT_URL).execute_query()
print(file.name)
with open(f"{LOCAL_FOLDER}/{file.name}", "wb") as f:
file.download(f).execute_query()
If SHAREPOINT_URL is generated from a file in my drive, the code works fine. If it comes from a file shared with me, it doesn't work. The following exception arise:
ClientRequestException ('-2130575338, Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException', 'The file |0 does not exist.', '404 Client Error: Not Found for url: https://xxx.sharepoint.com/personal/pietro_galvagni_xxx_com/_api/Web/GetFileByGuestUrl')
Do you know a way to get the file? Thank you
