Research direction

Reproduce the issue through client.graph_client.drives.by_drive_id(drive_id).items.by_drive_item_id(item_path).content.get() using SDK 1.63.0, then compare behavior with 1.62.0 and the requests workaround. The change is done when a valid SharePoint file request returns its file content instead of None.

Description

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

Trying to get the content of a sharepoint file returns None. Example code:

content = await ( client.graph_client.drives.by_drive_id(drive_id).items.by_drive_item_id(item_path).content.get() )

This has started happening a couple days ago

Expected behavior

The api call should return the content of the file

How to reproduce

execute

drive_id = drive_id
item_path = f"root:/{file_path}:"
content = await ( client.graph_client.drives.by_drive_id(drive_id).items.by_drive_item_id(item_path).content.get() )

on a relevant drive_id and item_path and check content. The function executes successfully, but content will be None.
Even though it used to work a couple days ago, using msgraph-sdk==1.62.0 did not work either.

SDK Version

1.63.0

Latest version known to work for scenario above?
