We have problem on Exchange 2013, response of attendee for other attendees is not retrieved from Exchange server, via EWS and also in OWA.
In Office 365 it works.
Of course - all replies only go to the organizer, the attendees never see the updated responses.
It is a recent Office 365 feature that allows the attendees to see the responses as well. See https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/attendees-can-see-others-responses-to-a-meeting-invitation-f51437e5-352c-4223-b7d8-7020cd71f3c8
I am working with the Exchange Web Service and am able to retrieve calendar events using the FindItem function. I have the function returning the IDOnly and making an additional call to GetItem to get all the properties. I am able to get everything I need with the exception of Attendees who are outside of the firm.
For example, if my company has john#abc.com and joe#abc.com email accounts and I have a calendar item with both, the EWS API is correctly returning both those are attendees.
However, if I create an event with john#abc.com and johnsmithxxxxx#gmail.com, the gmail address does not get returned in the API response even though it shows up within Outlook. Is this by design or do I need to specify some additional parameter to have the EWS API return ALL attendees regardless if they have a mailbox on the exchange server or not?
Is there a way to subscribe to all NEW calendar entries create by all users in my organization? Basically, whenever anyone in my organization creates a meeting invite, my app needs to be notified.
Our app needs this to work for both Exchange Online and On-premise.
Is there a way to subscribe to all NEW calendar entries create by all users in my organization?
No Subscriptions and always in the context of a Mailbox or Mailbox Folder (you need to consider your mailboxes will be spread across different servers in different data-centers)
As a workaround you could create a Transport Rule that catches any Meeting invitations and redirect them to a particular mailbox. Then just subscribe to events on that mailbox.
I am sync my outlook calender with my application through ews and also other appointments that are not created by me.
The issue is , I am updating outlook calendar from my application. When I try to update other appointments that are not created by me are throwing error.
Is there way in ews to update those appointments? Since outlook have an option to update(save & close ) the appointments ?
Please advice on this
No as that breaks the business logic eg an attendee can't update a Meeting organised by somebody else. You need to create a Meeting update from the Organiser copy of the appointment and then accept that on the user behalf https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dd633648(v=exchg.80).aspx if you want to maintain the attendees Calendars integrity.
I have been trying to do some operations via EWS API (for Java) by using credentials of the account marked as a conference room, with no success so far. Each call ends with The SMTP address has no mailbox associated with it. I have been searching through EWS API reference but found no entry that Conference Room account or Resource account cannot be used to check its own calendar, schedule a meetings etc.
When I use my own credentials (personal, not conference room) same code works fine.
The question
Is it possible to read appointments using EWS using only Conference Room credentials?
