byDriveItemId.patch() returns 204 No Content and fails on OneDrive Personal Accounts

Beginne mit dem im Reproduktionsbeispiel gezeigten item-ID PATCH-Aufruf von GraphServiceClient und vergleiche sein Verhalten mit dem dokumentierten pfadbasierten Workaround. Reproduziere die Aktualisierung mit einem OneDrive Personal-Konto und überprüfe anschließend, dass item-ID-Aktualisierungen das erwartete DriveItem statt einer unbrauchbaren 204-Antwort zurückgeben; es wird keine Repository-Datei und kein Test genannt.

Describe the bug

Using the graph sdk client I can't update (rename, move, or change any metadata) when I'm specifiying an itemId, instead of the path to the actual file.

Expected behavior

Works the same as on OneDrive Business.

How to reproduce

package com.microsoft;

import com.azure.core.credential.AccessToken;
import com.azure.core.credential.TokenCredential;
import com.azure.core.credential.TokenRequestContext;
import com.microsoft.graph.models.DriveItem;
import com.microsoft.graph.serviceclient.GraphServiceClient;
import java.time.OffsetDateTime;
import reactor.core.publisher.Mono;

public class App {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        final GraphServiceClient graphClient = new GraphServiceClient(
                new TokenCredential() {
                    @Override
                    public Mono<AccessToken> getToken(TokenRequestContext request) {
                        return Mono.just(new AccessToken(
                                "***",
                                OffsetDateTime.now().plusDays(1)));
                    }
                });
        final DriveItem newMetadata = new DriveItem();
        newMetadata.setName("000");
        final DriveItem result = graphClient
                .drives().byDriveId("097…")
                .items().byDriveItemId("97…!s0c…")
                .patch(newMetadata);
        if (result instanceof DriveItem) {
            System.out.println(result.getName());
        } else {
            System.out.println("Patch returned null");
        }
    }
}

SDK Version

No response

Latest version known to work for scenario above?

Microsoft Graph REST API before 2025-11-12.

Known Workarounds

Using drives/{driveId}/root:/path/to/file to patch, but according to the documentation page using Item IDs is preferred, also this option isn't exposed in the Java Sdk.
