Example for updating an existing file is missing colons?

[jamesncl]

I'm just getting started with Graph API so apologies if I'm mistaken here, but I was struggling to update the contents of an existing file on OneDrive using the example:

PUT /me/drive/items/{item-id}/content
Content-Type: text/plain

The contents of the file goes here.

In my case I'm using an app folder. The only way I could get this to work was to use colons, in the same way as the example furhter up the page for uploading new files.

So in my case, following the example format, this was not working:

PUT "v1.0/me/drive/special/approot/items/{existingFileId}/content"

But this worked:

PUT "v1.0/me/drive/special/approot:/items/{existingFileId}:/content"

So I think maybe the example code is incorrect
