I am listing the children in the root of a document library with custom columns. When I make the following call with the MS graph REST API, no custom column data is returned for the child items.

https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/sites/<site-id>/drive/root/children

I have tried using ?expand=... without success. Is this possible with either the v1 or beta endpoints?

Endpoint GET https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/sites/<site-id>/drive/root/children returns the collection of files metadata (DriveItem resource) in the root of the drive.

The associated document library list items could be retrieved via DriveItem.listItem property including the values of the columns set on this list item (via ListItem.fields property) like this: 

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/root/drive/root/children?$expand=listItem($expand=fields)

Alternatively, SharePoint Library list items and column values (including custom ones) could be retrieved instead:

GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/root/drive/list/items?$expand=fields

or list items along with files metadata:

GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/sites/root/drive/list/items?$expand=fields,driveItem

Thanks. Could you help me understand how I could have figured this out from the documentation? I felt it wasn't clear.
Basically, Relationships properties contains the list of all the associated entities that could be retrieved along with DriveItem resource
I see. Thanks again!
