Title: Admins may see incomplete usage reports for SharePoint Online and OneDrive for Business

User impact: Admins may see incomplete usage reports for SharePoint Online and OneDrive for Business.

More info: SharePoint and OneDrive URLs may not be displayed in some usage reports. The following report types may be impacted:

– SharePoint site usage reports
– OneDrive for Business site usage reports
– Data Access Governance (DAG) impact was remediated on Saturday, October 21, 2023, reports created during the impact timeframe can be re-generated to include URLs.

As a workaround, admins with appropriate access can use the SharePoint REST API or Microsoft Graph API to retrieve information about site IDs referenced in the affected reports.

Here is an example SharePoint REST API request that retrieves information about the Contoso site with site ID 15d43f38-ce4e-4f6b-bac6-766ece1fbcb4: https://contoso.sharepoint.com/_api/v2.1/sites/contoso.sharepoint.com,15d43f38-ce4e-4f6b-bac6-766ece1fbcb4

The Microsoft Graph API can be used to list SharePoint sites or retrieve information about a specific site ID: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/resources/site?view=graph-rest-1.0

Examples:
– https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites?search=*&$select=sharepointIds
– https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/{siteId}

The Microsoft Graph API can be used to retrieve information about a given user’s OneDrive for Business site: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/resources/drive?view=graph-rest-1.0

Example:
– https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/{userId}/drives?$select=sharepointIds

Current status: We’re finalizing the necessary information to provide an additional mitigation path to display the URLs of the affected site usage reports. We anticipate providing further resources and guidance by our next update. Please continue to utilize the workarounds described in this communication, as appropriate.

Scope of impact: Your organization is affected by this event, and admins attempting to access affected usage reports may be unable to view URLs within the reports.
