Microsoft365R 2.0.0

Major user-facing changes

• Add list_teams() and get_team() client functions for working with Microsoft Teams. You can get a team by name or ID. The following Teams functionality is supported:
  • Get, list, create and delete channels
  • List messages and replies
  • Send messages to channels, send replies to messages
  • Upload and download files
  • In this version only Teams channels are supported; chats between individuals may come later.
• Move implementations for file and folder methods to the ms_drive_item class.
  • This includes the following: list_files/list_items(), get_item(), create_folder(), upload() and download().
  • This facilitates managing files for Teams channels, which have associated folders in a shared document library (drive)
  • The existing methods for the ms_drive class now call down to the ms_drive_item methods, with appropriate arguments; their behaviour should be unchanged
• Rename the client functions to allow for listing teams and sites. The original clients are still available, but are deprecated and simply redirect to the new functions. They will be removed in a future version of the package.
  • get_sharepoint_site() is now get_sharepoint_site()
  • get_personal_onedrive() is now get_personal_onedrive()
  • get_business_onedrive() is now get_business_onedrive()
• The first argument to get_sharepoint_site() is site_name to get a site by name, for consistency with get_team(). To get a site by URL, specify the site_url argument explicitly: get_sharepoint_site(site_url="https://my-site-url").
• Add list_sharepoint_sites() function to list the sites you follow.

Other changes

• Add bulk_import() method for lists, for creating multiple items at once. Supply a data frame as the argument.
• The various client functions can now share the same underlying Graph login, which should reduce the incidence of token refreshing.
