Remarks
To address a driveItem from an itemReference resource, construct a URL of the format:
GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/drives/{driveId}/items/{id}
The path value is a percent-encoded API path relative to the target drive, for example: /drive/root:/Documents/my%20file.docx.
To retrieve the human-readable path for a breadcrumb, you can safely ignore everything up to the first : in the path string.
