I'm trying to figure out a way to check if a file already exists in Teams.

In my search I came across the following post:
If File Exists, WITHOUT VBA

This works fine for files that are local, but not when I search for files in teams.

Does anyone have an idea?

Waterfall charts in Excel?
Office 365 customers have access to Waterfall charts since late 2016. They were added to Excel 2019.

To check if a file exists in a Teams channel, I think the most efficient and reliable solution would be using Microsoft Graph API.
Make a HTTP request to the Get filesFolder method, and it will return the metadata for the location where the files of a channel are stored, then loop through files in the Teams channel folder to check the existence of a file.
