Using createLink to share with specific users

I am trying to create a link to share a document with createLink from Microsoft Graph for specific users without using an invite but it is creating a link with Anyone with the link can edit this document permission.

I'm calling this endpoint:

POST /me/drive/items/{itemId}/createLink

With this request body:

{
  "type": "edit",
  "scope": "anonymous"
}

Am I missing something?

Please refer this link https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/onedrive/developer/rest-api/api/driveitem_invite You can share the file with specific user by adding user's in "recipients":[{"@odata.type":"microsoft.graph.driveRecipient"}] parameter. You can set sendInvitation parameter like "sendInvitation":false to avoid sending the invitation mail.

You can't use createLink for sharing with a specific person, you need to use the invite endpoint for that.

The call you're making is responding exactly how you've asked it to and generating a link (createLink) that anyone (anonymous) can access.

If you don't want to send a physical invitation, you can tell OneDrive this by setting the sendInvitation property to false:

POST /me/drive/items/{item-id}/invite
Content-type: application/json

{
  "requireSignIn": true,
  "sendInvitation": false,
  "roles": [ "write", "read"],
  "recipients": [
    {
      "email": "[email protected]"
    }
  ]
}
