list-mail-child-folders
list-mail-child-foldersList child folders under a specified mail folder. Supports filtering, searching, and pagination to navigate mailbox hierarchy.
Instructions
Get the folder collection under the specified folder. You can use the .../me/mailFolders shortcut to get the top-level folder collection and navigate to another folder. By default, this operation doesn't return hidden folders. Use a query parameter includeHiddenFolders to include them in the response.
Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| top | No | Page size (Graph $top). Start small (e.g. 5–15) so responses fit the model context; raise only if needed. Use $select to return fewer fields per item. For more rows, use @odata.nextLink from the response instead of a very large $top. | |
| skip | No | Items to skip for pagination. Not supported with $search. | |
| count | No | Set true to enable advanced query mode (ConsistencyLevel: eventual). Required for complex $filter on flag/flagStatus or contains(). | |
| expand | No | Navigation properties to inline, e.g. attachments on a message or event. Only navigation properties can be expanded: expanding a non-navigation property such as a message body fails with "Parsing OData Select and Expand failed", and an unsupported value may be ignored rather than reported. Request ordinary fields with $select instead. | |
| filter | No | OData filter expression. Add $count=true for advanced filters (flag/flagStatus, contains()). Cannot combine with $search. | |
| search | No | KQL search query — wrap value in double quotes. Cannot combine with $filter. | |
| select | No | Comma-separated fields to return, e.g. id,subject,from,receivedDateTime | |
| orderby | No | Sort expression, e.g. receivedDateTime desc | |
| mailFolderId | Yes | Value for the 'mailFolderId' path segment. Pass it under the name 'mailFolderId', not as 'id'. Use the 'id' field of the mail folder object as returned by Microsoft Graph. | |
| fetchAllPages | No | Follow @odata.nextLink and merge up to 100 pages into one response. Can return enormous payloads—only when the user explicitly needs a full export. Prefer a small $top first, then paginate or narrow with $filter/$search. | |
| includeHeaders | No | Include response headers (including ETag) in the response metadata | |
| excludeResponse | No | Exclude the full response body and only return success or failure indication | |
| includeHiddenFolders | No | Include Hidden Folders |
