I have a Sharepoint Online sitecollection http://tenant.sharepoint.com/sites/test and I have set up an app to be able to get the authentication tokens in Azure AD (Sites.FullControl.All for Sharepoint).

I set up Postman to test the API calls and I'm getting expected results when I call https://tenant.sharepoint.com/sites/test/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle('Documents'), so the authorization is working (token is also not expired). As expected I can see "ItemCount": 1 among other information in the request.

However, when I want to list the items with https://tenant.sharepoint.com/sites/test/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle('Documents')/items I'm getting an empty array returned: "results": []. I then added app permissions to the sharepoint site with the following permissions (exactly this string):

<AppPermissionRequests>
    <AppPermissionRequest Scope="http://sharepoint/content/sitecollection" Right="FullControl" />
</AppPermissionRequests>

I have also tried it with /sitecollection/web/list as the scope and then choosing Documents in the next step, it didn't work either.

Unfortunately, I'm still getting an empty array. What could be the error here? Did I forget to set something up?

Can you try adding your permission like this.

<AppPermissionRequests AllowOnAppPolicy="true">
    <AppPermissionRequest Scope="http://sharepoint/content/sitecollection" Right="FullControl" />
</AppPermissionRequests>

AllowOnAppPolicy lets SharePoint check the permissions of the add-in instead of on user level. (More info)
