OneDrive Automation via Rube MCP

Automate OneDrive operations including file upload/download, search, folder management, sharing links, permissions management, and drive browsing through Composio's OneDrive toolkit.

Prerequisites

• Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available)
• Active OneDrive connection via RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit one_drive
• Always call RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS first to get current tool schemas

Setup

Get Rube MCP: Add https://rube.app/mcp as an MCP server in your client configuration. No API keys needed — just add the endpoint and it works.

1. Verify Rube MCP is available by confirming RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS responds
2. Call RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS with toolkit one_drive
3. If connection is not ACTIVE, follow the returned auth link to complete Microsoft OAuth
4. Confirm connection status shows ACTIVE before running any workflows

Core Workflows

1. Search and Browse Files

When to use: User wants to find files or browse folder contents in OneDrive

Tool sequence:

1. ONE_DRIVE_GET_DRIVE - Verify drive access and get drive details [Prerequisite]
2. ONE_DRIVE_SEARCH_ITEMS - Keyword search across filenames, metadata, and content [Required]
3. ONE_DRIVE_ONEDRIVE_LIST_ITEMS - List all items in the root of a drive [Optional]
4. ONE_DRIVE_GET_ITEM - Get detailed metadata for a specific item, expand children [Optional]
5. ONE_DRIVE_ONEDRIVE_FIND_FILE - Find a specific file by exact name in a folder [Optional]
6. ONE_DRIVE_ONEDRIVE_FIND_FOLDER - Find a specific folder by name [Optional]
7. ONE_DRIVE_LIST_DRIVES - List all accessible drives [Optional]

Key parameters:

• q: Search query (plain keywords only, NOT KQL syntax)
• search_scope: "root" (folder hierarchy) or "drive" (includes shared items)
• top: Max items per page (default 200)
• skip_token: Pagination token from @odata.nextLink
• select: Comma-separated fields to return (e.g., "id,name,webUrl,size")
• orderby: Sort order (e.g., "name asc", "name desc")
• item_id: Item ID for GET_ITEM
• expand_relations: Array like ["children"] or ["thumbnails"] for GET_ITEM
• user_id: "me" (default) or specific user ID/email

Pitfalls:

• ONE_DRIVE_SEARCH_ITEMS does NOT support KQL operators (folder:, file:, filetype:, path:); these are treated as literal text
• Wildcard characters (*, ?) are NOT supported and are auto-removed; use file extension keywords instead (e.g., "pdf" not "*.pdf")
• ONE_DRIVE_ONEDRIVE_LIST_ITEMS returns only root-level contents; use recursive ONE_DRIVE_GET_ITEM with expand_relations: ["children"] for deeper levels
• Large folders paginate; always follow skip_token / @odata.nextLink until exhausted
• Some drive ID formats may return "ObjectHandle is Invalid" errors due to Microsoft Graph API limitations

2. Upload and Download Files

When to use: User wants to upload files to OneDrive or download files from it

Tool sequence:

1. ONE_DRIVE_ONEDRIVE_FIND_FOLDER - Locate the target folder [Prerequisite]
2. ONE_DRIVE_ONEDRIVE_UPLOAD_FILE - Upload a file to a specified folder [Required for upload]
3. ONE_DRIVE_DOWNLOAD_FILE - Download a file by item ID [Required for download]
4. ONE_DRIVE_GET_ITEM - Get file details before download [Optional]

Key parameters:

• file: FileUploadable object with s3key, mimetype, and name for uploads
• folder: Destination path (e.g., "/Documents/Reports") or folder ID for uploads
• item_id: File's unique identifier for downloads
• file_name: Desired filename with extension for downloads
• drive_id: Specific drive ID (for SharePoint or OneDrive for Business)
• user_id: "me" (default) or specific user identifier

Pitfalls:

• Upload automatically renames on conflict (no overwrite option by default)
• Large files are automatically handled via chunking
• drive_id overrides user_id when both are provided
• Item IDs vary by platform: OneDrive for Business uses 01... prefix, OneDrive Personal uses HASH!NUMBER format
• Item IDs are case-sensitive; use exactly as returned from API

3. Share Files and Manage Permissions

When to use: User wants to share files/folders or manage who has access

Tool sequence:

1. ONE_DRIVE_ONEDRIVE_FIND_FILE or ONE_DRIVE_ONEDRIVE_FIND_FOLDER - Locate the item [Prerequisite]
2. ONE_DRIVE_GET_ITEM_PERMISSIONS - Check current permissions [Prerequisite]
3. ONE_DRIVE_INVITE_USER_TO_DRIVE_ITEM - Grant access to specific users [Required]
4. ONE_DRIVE_CREATE_LINK - Create a shareable link [Optional]
5. ONE_DRIVE_UPDATE_DRIVE_ITEM_METADATA - Update item metadata [Optional]

Key parameters:

• item_id: The file or folder to share
• recipients: Array of objects with email or object_id
• roles: Array with "read" or "write"
• send_invitation: true to send notification email, false for silent permission grant
• require_sign_in: true to require au
