Get a list of fileStorageContainer objects that are accessible to a caller. The containerTypeId filter parameter is required.
Important
- Requests made on behalf of a user fail if the user doesn't have a OneDrive. This requirement doesn't apply when you call the endpoint without a user context (app-only authentication). The endpoint also only returns containers that the user is a direct member of. Containers that the user is a member of via a group aren't returned.
- Requests made without a user context (app-only authentication) aren't currently supported for multi-geo tenants.

GET /storage/fileStorage/containers?$filter=containerTypeId eq {containerTypeId}
GET /storage/fileStorage/containers?$filter=containerTypeId eq {containerTypeId} and viewpoint/effectiveRole eq 'principalOwner'This method requires the containerTypeId parameter. It supports the $expand OData query parameter, except for the drive, permissions, and customProperties properties. If other $filter conditions are used, the endpoint might return intermediate pages with partial results or even no results, and the caller must continue to read all pages to get all applicable results. For more information, see OData query parameters.
