I'm trying to figure out a way to check if a file already exists in Teams.

In my search I came across the following post:
If File Exists, WITHOUT VBA

This works fine for files that are local, but not when I search for files in teams.

Does anyone have an idea?
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.

To check if a file exists in a Teams channel, I think the most efficient and reliable solution would be using Microsoft Graph API.
Make a HTTP request to the Get filesFolder method, and it will return the metadata for the location where the files of a channel are stored, then loop through files in the Teams channel folder to check the existence of a file.
