RE: Should Microsoft Graph API support SharePoint List Views?

Yes, Microsoft Graph API should ideally support SharePoint List Views natively. Currently, developers often need to fall back on the SharePoint REST API to manage or retrieve list views, which adds complexity and disrupts the goal of a unified API.

Native support in Graph would:

  • Simplify development by providing a single API for both data and views.
  • Reduce integration overhead, eliminating the need to mix Graph and REST calls.
  • Improve maintainability and consistency across enterprise applications.

Until full support exists, using SharePoint REST for view-level operations remains practical. However, extending Graph to handle list views would make it far more developer-friendly and aligned with its promise as a unified Microsoft 365 API layer.
