Microsoft Graph SDK for Java
Get started with the Microsoft Graph SDK for Java by integrating the Microsoft Graph API into your Java application!
Note: this SDK allows you to build applications using the v1.0 of Microsoft Graph. If you want to try the latest Microsoft Graph APIs under beta, use our beta SDK instead.
1. Installation
1.1 Install via Gradle
Add the repository and a compile dependency for microsoft-graph
to your project's build.gradle
:
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
// Include the sdk as a dependency
implementation 'com.microsoft.graph:microsoft-graph:5.59.0'
// Uncomment the line below if you are building an android application
//implementation 'com.google.guava:guava:30.1.1-android'
// This dependency is only needed if you are using the TokenCrendentialAuthProvider
implementation 'com.azure:azure-identity:1.2.5'
}
1.2 Install via Maven
Add the dependency in dependencies
in pom.xml
<dependency>
<!-- Include the sdk as a dependency -->
<groupId>com.microsoft.graph</groupId>
<artifactId>microsoft-graph</artifactId>
<version>5.59.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<!-- This dependency is only needed if you are using the TokenCredentialAuthProvider -->
<groupId>com.azure</groupId>
<artifactId>azure-identity</artifactId>
<version>1.2.5</version>
</dependency>
1.3 Enable ProGuard (Android)
The nature of the Graph API is such that the SDK needs quite a large set of classes to describe its functionality. You need to ensure that ProGuard is enabled on your project. Otherwise, you will incur long build times for functionality that is not necessarily relevant to your particular application. If you are still hitting the 64K method limit, you can also enable multidexing. Checkout the recommended rules.
2. Getting started
2.1 Register your application
Register your application by following the steps at Register your app with the Microsoft Identity Platform.
2.2 Create an IAuthenticationProvider object
An instance of the GraphServiceClient class handles building requests, sending them to the Microsoft Graph API, and processing the responses. To create a new instance of this class, you need to provide an instance of IAuthenticationProvider
, which can authenticate requests to Microsoft Graph.
For an example of how to get an authentication provider, see choose a Microsoft Graph authentication provider.
2.3 Get a GraphServiceClient object
After you have set the correct application ID and URL, you must get a GraphServiceClient object to make requests against the service. The SDK stores the account information for you, but when a user signs in for the first time, it invokes the UI to get the user's account information.
GraphServiceClient<Request> graphClient =
GraphServiceClient
.builder()
.authenticationProvider(authenticationProvider)
.buildClient();
3. Make requests against the service
After you have a GraphServiceClient that is authenticated, you can begin making calls against the service. The requests against the service look like our REST API.
3.1 Get the user's drive
To retrieve the user's drive:
final Drive result = graphClient
.me()
.drive()
.buildRequest()
.get();
System.out.println("Found Drive " + result.id);
Or with the asynchronous API.
graphClient
.me()
.drive()
.buildRequest()
.futureGet()
.thenApply(result -> {
System.out.println("Found Drive " + result.id);
});
