How to add O.DataType in request with Microsoft Graph API SDK?-CodePudding

I'm trying to use the Graph API to get information about user's permissions. I'm able to retrieve everything I want in a good format on the graph explorer using this request:

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/{{UserId}}/transitiveMemberOf/microsoft.graph.group?$select=displayName,description

However I don't know how to translate the /microsoft.graph.group in a Graph API SDK request. This is what I have now:

await this._graphServiceClient.Users[userId].TransitiveMemberOf.Request().Select(this.GetQuery()).GetAsync();

Is there a way to specify I only want the groups as OdataType?

I know I could filter on this type once the request is done, but if I don't have to do this it is better.

CodePudding user response：

There is no support for OData casting in Graph API dotnet sdk but some inspiration how to append microsoft.graph.group to request url can be found in msgraph-sdk-dotnet-contrib repository.

There is a WithODataCastMethod which applies an OData cast filter to the returned collection.

Example of usage of that method

await this._graphServiceClient.Users[userId]
    .TransitiveMemberOf
    .WithODataCastMethod("microsoft.graph.group")
    .Request()
    .Select(this.GetQuery())
    .GetAsync();
