I've been trying to switch between SharePoint REST API and Graph API and I can't find an equivalent of breakroleinheritance()

_api/web/GetFileByServerRelativeUrl('/sites/sitename/Shared%20Documents/foldername')/ListItemAllFields/breakroleinheritance(true)

doesn't seem to have a matching functionality in graph.

I tried listing all permissions via /drives/${driveId}/items/${someFolderId}/permissions and deleting them one by one, but it silently fails on one permission that's the main owners group and I can't delete it.

Tried looking for role management in Graph API but there's role management only for devices.

How do I break role inheritance through Graph API?

I think MS Graph API has not exposed such an endpoint that could break role inheritance. You may have to continue using the old rest API.

In case anybody's looking for this, according to the docs you can break inheritance by sending a sharing invite and setting retainInheritedPermissions to false

Unfortunately for the moment it forms a bad request. An issue has been logged here - hopefully it will be fixed soon. For now, as @Baker_Kong says, the old API seems to be the only working way to do this
