There was no problem when I first created the microsoft account. After some time passed, when I tried to request again, I got an error.

I send a request to this endpoint and the following error is returned.

"https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/drive/items/{drive-item-id}/workbook/worksheets"

{"error":{"code":"FileOpenUserUnauthorized","message":"You do not have permissions to open this file in the browser.","innerError":{"code":"unauthorizedUncategorized","message":"Required authentication information for the resource is either missing or invalid.","innerError":{"code":"FileOpenUserUnauthorized","message":"You do not have permissions to open this file in the browser."},"date":"2024-05-13T14:34:36","request-id":"f6e36068-3345-4a70-88f2-22aeb0fd1c23","client-request-id":"f6e36068-3345-4a70-88f2-22aeb0fd1c23"}}}

I gave all the necessary permissions.

I don't know what is the problem. Please, help me :(

    Hi @developeruser

    It is only available in a delegated context. Try assigning the Files.ReadWrite delegated permission to the calling app, and then request an access token using a delegated authentication flow with user participation.

    Or log in to Graph Explorer with your user and call this API directly.
