Frequently asked questions
Where are cached files stored?
Cached files are stored locally in the `./src/mcp_m365_filesearch/.local/downloads` directory relative to the project root.
What inputs does `get_file_content` require?
It requires a `driveid` (string, unique parent drive identifier) and a `fileid` (string, unique file identifier).
How does the cache work?
When a file is requested via `get_file_content`, the server first checks the local cache. If found, it returns the file from disk without making a new API call.
What runtime is needed to run the server?
The server is run using `uv` and Python; the command references `server.py` in the source directory.
