get-drive-item
Retrieve metadata for a file or folder in a Microsoft 365 drive, including name, size, timestamps, creator, and download URL.
Instructions
All items contained in the drive. Read-only. Nullable.
💡 TIP: Gets metadata for a file or folder: name, size, lastModifiedDateTime, createdBy, webUrl, file (mimeType, hashes), folder (childCount), parentReference, and @microsoft.graph.downloadUrl. For the bytes, call download-bytes with target=/drives/{drive-id}/items/{driveItem-id}/content (Graph redirects to the same downloadUrl).
