ONE DRIVE CLIENT FOR LINUX
We need a official solution from microsoft to sync our onedrive account with the distros of linux available like Ubuntu, Fedora, Elementary OS, Pop! OS, Red Hat, Debian, Arch Linux, Linux Mint and etc. We've go a Skype, a Microsoft Teams app and a Visual Studio Code app for linux, a onedrive client would be essential to sync our files with the microsoft's cloud. I hope microsoft continues to pay attention to the linux users, because often they are developers or professionals who lay on their softwares solutions on the web too, to get work done.

Please add the OData $skip query option to allow for Random Access Data Virtualization support
Though the current server paging capability can support an incremental loading capability, this doesn't support at all the case of user quickly scrolling through their photos or data in a virtual list, because scrolling can be done so quickly that any incremental loading queue can get saturated.
Random access data virtualization is what is required to support the quick scrolling scenario. Unfortunately, it looks as if the SDK and the OneDrive API don't support the OData query options (namely $skip) which would enable that.
Hopefully $skip is in the near range plan, so that we'll be able to create awesome…

Javascript SDK for new OneDrive Api
Currently there are only pickers and savers available for the new OneDrive Api.
If you now say, I should use the Javascript Live SDK, why you created a new api, which is less impressiv than the old?

File appending/concatenation
It would be nice to be able to upload multiple files to OneDrive and then, once they're uploaded, join them together into one file.
On Windows, this can be achieved through the following command:
copy /b 1.txt + 2.txt + 3.txt all.txt
It would be great for this functionality to be available on OneDrive too. Amongst other uses, this could be useful for working around issues with uploading large files.
As there isn't a method for extending the expiry date of an upload session, the user is given a deadline by which they must complete the uploading of their file.

Allow basic user to view shared folder from business user on mobile apps!!!
I have an Onedrive business account and a basic one. I discover that the shared folders from business account to basic account cannot be shown on current ios apps. They can only be viewed on browser.
Can MS development team allow the shared folders from business to be view on current mobile apps? It definitely helps us to share the information to clients who don't have the business account but can view the folders on apps with basic account.
Many related topics have been posted in past several years. I wish MS can take a look to the issue. Thanks…

Webhook support for (non-root) Drive Items Microsoft Graph API
I'm wondering if Webhook subscriptions for non-root Drive Items will be added. Specifically I'm asking of subscriptions to Group Drive items, so that functionality like SharePoint's 'Alert me' when file changes can be implemented.

Allow a file to be streamed to the cloud without requiring the file's size to be known in advance.
We develop backup/restore software. Our technology is able, with FTP, DropBox, GoogleDrive, and other cloud storage providers, to stream a backup directly to an archive file in the cloud - without needing to write any data locally. We consider this "backup-directly-to-the-cloud". Unfortunately, OneDrive falls short of capability for this feature. The upload REST APIs (upload sessions) appear to require that a file size must be specified. We would require that the API allow us to begin streaming data to a file before we know the total amount of data that will be included.
