Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue through GraphServiceClient.sites().get().getValue() with UsernamePasswordCredentialBuilder, then compare it with ClientSecretCredential. Investigate how the SDK handles the empty or "*" site search query under each credential provider. Done means the username/password flow returns the expected site list without regressing the client-secret flow.

Description

Status: Needs Investigation

Describe the bug

Create GraphServiceClient with UsernamePasswordCredential provider

var provider = new UsernamePasswordCredentialBuilder()
                .clientId("client_id")
                .username("username")
                .password("password");
var graphClient = new GraphServiceClient(provider);

Call graphClient.sites().get().getValue()

Expected result: receive a list of the sites
Actual result: an empty list was returned without any error.

GraphServiceClient with ClientSecretCredential provider works as expected on graphClient.sites().get().getValue() call.
