I need to send data (body, location and etc.) from the appointment to my server after the user clicks on Send and Delete button.
I find solution for "Send" event in documentation.
Are there any other hooks for Send event and can I catch Delete event in Outlook web add in?
Thanks.
The only hook for the Send event is the On-Send feature you linked above. Currently, we don't have a hook for the Delete event. We track Outlook Add-in feature requests on our user-voice page. Please add a request there. Feature requests on user-voice are considered when we go through our planning process.

I am writing a script to reply to AppointmentItem in outlook. The AppointmentItem does not expose ReplyAll (or Reply) method, and that is only available for MeetingItems. However, all the events on a user's calendar are stored as AppointmentItem class, even if there are multiple attendees. I am wondering how I can ReplyAll to an AppointmentItem? Is there any way to get the associated MeetingItem?
PS: When I right click on an AppointmentItem in Calendar it does enable ReplyAll, so there should be a way to do this.

Currently I am developing an Add in for Outlook and I have implemented onSend event. Since it is UI-less and it is always triggered, I was wondering is there a way to only trigger it for Appointments not emails? This is because user experience, for them not to have "Add in" triggered when messages are created and sent out.
There isn't a way to restrict On-send to just appointments. One workaround, which I'm sure you are aware of, is to no-op the event handler if the item is a message. This doesn't solve the problem of the add-in running on messages.

I can access Message (mail) and Appointment objects via the office-js library and show the add-in button within these objects to show the pane.
Is there any way how to show the pane in the Task object window?
In Appointment it is possible
Thank you for any hint. I suppose it is not just supported now and I will have to manage Tasks via Graph API.

Currently, add-ins are not supported on Task items, only appointments and mail messages. We track Outlook add-in feature requests on our user-voice page. Please add your request there. Feature requests on user-voice are considered, when we go through our planning process.
I'm trying to implement an add-in for Outlook which has some fields and a button that once clicked does some validations and sends an appointment to inform the attendees.
I am using the function below to achieve my goal:
Office.context.mailbox.item.saveAsync()
Office.context.mailbox.item.close() (as a callback for the function above)
It works for office365, but it doesn't work for office365 thick client.
I found in the Microsoft docs that with the function 'saveAsync' in Outlook in cached mode, the item is saved to the local cache. I disabled this option and still getting the same result.
I was using OnSend functionality, but this feature is not supported for Outlook client.
Any advice or tips of how could I have the functionality of sending the appointment through my Add-in in both, client and web version of Outlook? Basically I need to trigger the existing button 'Send' in the calendar.
It sounds like the ItemSend Event (OnSend) you are using in Outlook on the Web handles your scenario. We are working to bring this functionality to Outlook on Windows soon.
I want to detect an event in Mail Add-in. In Outlook, thick/desktop version, we can detect the mail event, such as MailItem.Send and MailItem.AttachmentAdd.
Is it possible to listen to these events in Outlook online?
Unfortunately there are almost no events of any kind in the Mailbox API, other than asynchronous callbacks that are only fired when you initiate them. There is nothing that I'm aware of that can be used to detect item send or attachment modification events.
The closest option is to use the Outlook Notifications REST API (https://msdn.microsoft.com/office/office365/APi/notify-rest-operations), but these are more suitable to monitoring item/folder level changes. Perhaps you can hook into a notification for the Sent Items folder to approximate a MailItem.Send operation, or watch changes to a draft item to detect a newly added attachment.
nop. you can't do this. Office Apps can't interact with buttons or actions on the client apps such as: Outlook.
