hey @reshmee011 , instead of this CSOM based API request , let's use the graph based one:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/driveitem-lockorunlockrecord?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http

Can you modify the PR to do that ?

[reshmee011]

@gautamdsheth : Sure I can do that, I will make the changes soon.

@gautamdsheth : Is there any existing function to retrieve the driveid of the list or library from Graph?
The graph endpoint requires the drive id, if there is already functionality for it, it will help.

Hi @reshmee011 , we use PnP Core for this.

Check this :

powershell/src/Commands/Files/ConvertFile.cs

Line 67 in 1b8af72

IFile sourceFile = Connection.PnPContext.Web.GetFileByServerRelativeUrl(serverRelativeUrl, p => p.VroomDriveID, p => p.VroomItemID);

Maybe we can use the VroomDriveId I think. Also, I think the value is same as list GUID value AFAIK, need to check , so list.ID or list.GUID might work

@gautamdsheth : Thanks for the guidance. I have not tested it yet, will Connection.PnPContext.Web.GetFileByServerRelativeUrl work for list item as well? Is there a method to just get List/library driveid within PnP Core?

[reshmee011]

@gautamdsheth : I have used the REST API endpoint /_api/SP.CompliancePolicy.SPPolicyStoreProxy.UnlockRecordItem() which works for both a file and list item. The Graph endpoint works against a driveitem which from my understanding is applicable only to a file. I bet another cmdlet Unlock-PnPFile would work for the Graph endpoint https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/driveitem-lockorunlockrecord?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http

Hmm, need to check this a bit about how to fetch driveId via PnP Core.
We want to avoid CSOM moving forward and use Graph where possible especially for new cmdlets. If it's not possible (list item) via Graph, lets not do it.

Will get back to you asap.
