createRequest hangs with php microsoft graph

Question

I'm using the php SDK for microsoft graph to upload files to sharepoint. From time to time, the createRequest command hangs, and I'm not sure how to debug it. When I make a simple request, (e.g GET /me) it works.

        $graph = new Graph();
        $graph->setAccessToken($access_token);

        $user = $graph->createRequest("GET", "/me")
                      ->setReturnType(Model\User::class)
                      ->execute();

        // This works. $user is correct.

        /** @var Model\UploadSession $uploadSession */
        $uploadSession = $graph->createRequest("POST", "/drives/$drive_id/items/root:/$saveAsFileName:/createUploadSession")
            ->addHeaders(["Content-Type" => "application/json"])
            ->attachBody([
                "item" => [
                    "@microsoft.graph.conflictBehavior" => "rename",
                    "description" => $fileDescription
                ]
            ])
            ->setReturnType(Model\UploadSession::class)
            ->execute();

            // This line hangs

Your sample code works when I change from `POST` to `PUT`. With POST it returns an error when `name` is not provided. Do you get an error or the request never goes through? — Danstan, May 24 '21 at 20:43

I have tested this out using PHP SDK "microsoft/microsoft-graph": "^1.31" and I see that the create upload session works with PUT with your sample as is. For POST, the name field has to be provided. See below.

$drive_id = "drive-id";
$saveAsFileName = "sample.dat";

$body = [  
          "item" => [
              "@microsoft.graph.conflictBehavior" => "rename",
              "name" =>  $saveAsFileName
              ]
        ];

$response = $graph->createRequest("PUT", "/drives/$drive_id/items/root:/$saveAsFileName:/createUploadSession")
      ->addHeaders(["Content-Type" => "application/json"])
      ->attachBody($body)
      ->setReturnType(Model\UploadSession::class)
      ->execute();

both the `$drive_id` and `$saveAsFilename` were defined. Also, if the url was incorrect, I would expect an error (e.g. malformed request), but I receive nothing back. The process just hangs. – mankowitz May 25 '21 at 11:57
Have you tried adding the name field to the body too? – Danstan May 25 '21 at 19:59
