🔍 Code Extractor

Explores and displays the complete structure of a SharePoint site using Microsoft Graph API, including drives, document libraries, lists, and alternative API endpoints.

Purpose

This diagnostic function provides a comprehensive overview of a SharePoint site's structure by querying various Graph API endpoints. It's designed for site exploration, debugging, and understanding the available resources within a SharePoint site. The function prints detailed information about all drives, document libraries, site lists, and tests alternative API endpoints to help developers understand the site's organization and available data access points.

    try:
        from sharepoint_graph_client import SharePointGraphClient
        from config import Config
        
        client = SharePointGraphClient(
            Config.SHAREPOINT_SITE_URL,
            Config.AZURE_CLIENT_ID,
            Config.AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET
        )
        
        headers = {

            'Accept': 'application/json'

        print("-" * 30)
        explore_all_drives(client.site_id, headers)

        print("\n📚 DOCUMENT LIBRARIES:")
        print("-" * 30)
        explore_document_libraries(client.site_id, headers)
        
        # 3. Explore lists in the site
        print("\n📋 SITE LISTS:")
        print("-" * 30)
        explore_site_lists(client.site_id, headers)
        
        # 4. Try different API endpoints for the current drive
        print("\n🔄 ALTERNATIVE API ENDPOINTS:")
        print("-" * 30)
        explore_alternative_endpoints(client, headers)
        
        return True
        
    except Exception as e:
        print(f"❌ Site exploration failed: {e}")
        import traceback
        traceback.print_exc()
        return False

Return Value

Returns a boolean value: True if the site exploration completes successfully, False if any exception occurs during the exploration process. The primary output is printed to console rather than returned as data.

Dependencies

• requests
• sharepoint_graph_client
• config

Required Imports

from sharepoint_graph_client import SharePointGraphClient
from config import Config
import traceback

Conditional/Optional Imports

These imports are only needed under specific conditions:

from sharepoint_graph_client import SharePointGraphClient

from config import Config

import traceback

Usage Example

# Ensure config.py has required settings:
# Config.SHAREPOINT_SITE_URL = 'https://yourtenant.sharepoint.com/sites/yoursite'
# Config.AZURE_CLIENT_ID = 'your-client-id'
# Config.AZURE_CLIENT_SECRET = 'your-client-secret'

# Ensure SharePointGraphClient is available
# Ensure helper functions are defined: explore_all_drives, explore_document_libraries, explore_site_lists, explore_alternative_endpoints

# Run the exploration
success = explore_site_structure()

if success:
    print('Site exploration completed successfully')
else:
    print('Site exploration failed')

Best Practices

• Ensure all required helper functions (explore_all_drives, explore_document_libraries, explore_site_lists, explore_alternative_endpoints) are defined before calling this function
• Verify that the Azure AD application has appropriate Microsoft Graph API permissions (Sites.Read.All minimum)
• This function is primarily for diagnostic/exploration purposes and prints output to console rather than returning structured data
• The function catches all exceptions and prints stack traces, making it suitable for debugging but not for production error handling
• Ensure the SharePointGraphClient class properly handles authentication and token management
• The access token from SharePointGraphClient must be valid and not expired when the function executes
• Consider rate limiting when exploring large SharePoint sites to avoid Graph API throttling
