Research direction

Start with src/msgraph_core/requests/batch_request_builder.py around line 70 and src/msgraph_core/tasks/large_file_upload.py around line 133, then inspect how their loggers are created. Reproduce the bad batch request with logging.basicConfig(). Done means log messages from both modules go to module- or package-specific loggers rather than the root logger.

Description

status:waiting-for-triage type:bug
Describe the bug

The library logs to the root logger. As that's a widely-accepted bad practice, I guess it qualifies as a bug.

Expected behavior

All log messages should go to module- or package-specific loggers.
