Label	Prop	Type	Description
Microsoft OneDrive	`onedrive`	`app`	This component uses the Microsoft OneDrive app.
File ID	`fileId`	`string`	Select a value from the drop down menu.
File Path	`filePath`	`string`	The path to the file from the root folder, e.g., `Documents/My Subfolder/File 1.docx`. You can either provide this, or search for an existing file with the `File ID` prop.

Authentication#

Microsoft OneDrive uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Microsoft OneDrive account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Microsoft OneDrive and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Microsoft OneDrive API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:
