Help to fix onedrive is full

At time of writing, onedrive really sucks saying it is full, and provide no way to identify where your folder grows.

This python script permits to identify problems in your onedrive folder when it says it is full (but apparently not)

This script will list your onedrive folder content and computes size of each file, including size of versioned files Once you identified the biggest files in your onedrive folder (including their revisions taking disk size), you will be able to remove some versions of these files.

I quickly made this script from scratch, to identify problems in my onedrive.Then, any improvements are welcomed :-)

Allowing the script to access your onedrive folder

To use this script, it will need to login to your onedrive account. That's a bit tricky... The login process uses interactivebrowser credential with help of your browser . refs https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/python/api/azure-identity/azure.identity.interactivebrowsercredential?view=azure-python0

To achieve it , you will need to create an app in azure portal (now microsoft entra) to allow to login with your microsoft account to access your onedrive

Define the auth reply as http://localhost:8400 when creating the application

When your app is created , you MUST fill in these variables in the script:

• tenant_id : tenant id of your business id
• client_id : (app id) in the script

You will need to allow these authorizations to the application: "User.Read","Files.Read","Files.Read.All"
