OneNote's create page endpoint not returning any links to the page

Prakash Verma 55

We are utilizing Microsoft Graph's Create OneNote Page API to generate a page in a user's OneNote through our application. This endpoint typically creates the page successfully and returns the links to the newly created page in the response.

However, for some customers, the links to the page are not being returned even though the call succeeded with a 201 status code.

Below are the endpoint and request IDs for reference:

Endpoint:

POST: https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/onenote/sections/{SectionId}/pages

Response headers:


{
    "cache-control": "no-cache",
    "client-request-id": "0c0c1c4b-39e4-44b8-9003-48c8f4c728aa",

Hi Prakash,
Can you please provide us with the request body for calls for which links are not being returned.

Hi @Rohit Raghuwanshi - MSFT
Request body for post call contains the content of page. That was confidential so we could not share that but same thing is also happening with GET call too. So I am providing you the request and response of GET call here:

Endpoint:
GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/onenote/pages/1-a8d315e2f262406ebc5556412b7221af!131-3c62425a-f936-434b-b927-609495fb06f5

Response headers:

{
    "cache-control": "no-cache",
    "client-request-id": "4f9c0170-e4a0-418c-9e10-e4c32b64ca1f",
    "content-type": "application/json;odata.metadata=minimal;odata.streaming=true;IEEE754Compatible=false;charset=utf-8",

Hi @Prakash Verma

When tested, the endpoint works well, returns a 201 status code after a successful call, and returns a link to the page in the response body instead of the response header.

My test results are as follows:

@Yakun Huang-MSFT
Yes, this is generally how it works and for many of our users it is returning links correctly. But as I mentioned in the question that for some customer endpoint is not returning the links.
