Support to Suppress Webhook Notifications During File Upload in ChunkedUploadRequest

I've used Microsoft-Graph version 2.3.2 in my Java application.

When using the Microsoft Graph API to upload files to SharePoint using the ChunkedUploadRequest class, webhook notifications are triggered for the same file upload, as SharePoint treats it as an Add event.

This causes redundant webhook notifications to the application, which leads to unnecessary processing for files already uploaded by the application itself.

To address this, can we have a feature setting a flag, custom metadata, or a parameter in the ChunkedUploadRequest call to suppress webhook notifications for specific files?

    Currently, the Microsoft Graph API doesn’t support suppressing webhook notifications during chunked uploads. Here are some workarounds:

    1. Filter Notifications: Add logic to ignore notifications for files your app just uploaded.
    2. Batch Processing: Aggregate notifications to reduce processing.
    3. Custom Metadata: Tag files during upload and check this metadata in your webhook handler.

    For a permanent solution, consider submitting a feature request to the Microsoft Graph team.
