@philipwhiuk we read your comment on OfficeDev/ews-java-api#692 "If I don't get any feedback by November, I'll probably just create the org and start this process."

Can this issue OfficeDev/ews-java-api#713 not fix immediately? Our work stuck on the conversation API.

@philipwhiuk

I don’t work for Microsoft at all - any EWS work I do is a hobby.
Even if I did spend time to fix it for you nobody could merge it or release it.

If you’re actually blocked on it for a customer I suggest you fork the library and make the fixes yourself.

@philipwhiuk thank you for quick answer. Actually we didn't know that you do not work for Microsoft so I mentioned you in every question.

My understanding is @MIchaelMainer who commented on #661 here: https://github.com/OfficeDev/ews-java-api/issues/661#issuecomment-407595656 is the only Microsoft employee who has looked at the repo in the last 18 months or so.

Any help on this error:
List of possible elements expected: 'SortOrder, ParentFolderId' in namespace 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/messages'.

SearchFilter.IsEqualTo idFilter =
new SearchFilter.IsEqualTo(ConversationSchema.Id, conversationId);
FindConversationRequest request = new FindConversationRequest(exchangeService);
request.setIndexedItemView(new ConversationIndexedItemView(1, 0, OffsetBasePoint.Beginning));
request.setConversationViewFilter(idFilter);
request.setFolderId(new FolderIdWrapper(folderId));
Collection<Conversation> singleConversation = request.execute().getConversations();

@girishghoda57

Any help on above issue?

Girish Ghoda

@girishghoda57

Can any one answer that search filter is support in findconversation method in ews-java-api?
Its threw exception every time. I want to fetch conversation by id so I set SearchFilter.IsEqualTo(ConversationSchema.Id, conversationId); but got exception "has invalid child element 'Restriction' in namespace".

@pkropachev any suggestion?

Girish Ghoda

@girishghoda57

I think restriction not supported for conversation requests. I resolve OfficeDev/ews-java-api#713 but now I want find a conversation by id. So any suggestion or a hint for that I really need help. (Stuck from last week).

@philipwhiuk any suggestion?

Hi all

Will EWS JAVA API work after Basic Authentication decommission?

https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Exchange-Team-Blog/Upcoming-changes-to-Exchange-Web-Services-EWS-API-for-Office-365/ba-p/608055

Also, can someone please let me know on how to authenticate with OAuth 2.0 for Exchange online servers (myexchangedomain.com).

Also, can someone tell me difference btw Outlook Office365, Exchange online and on-premise Exchange.

I’ve only very briefly used this library. I was trying to build an open source Android app that could use EWS to communicate with Office 365 and benefit from the additional functionality that allowed. I didn’t get very far beyond fixing the library so it actually built because I ended up moving away from Android entirely. I believe I did see none Basic Auth when I looked at the code but I don’t recall precisely. I’m afraid you’ll have to look into the code itself and work it out yourself, probably a tonne of trial and error.

In terms of the types of Exchange - it changes how much you can configure Exchange and how it gets updates - with on premises you’ll have almost complete control - with Office 365 you have near none. With Exchange Online you can enable per business config like custom Auth but it’ll be using the latest version so be affected by the deprecation above I guess.

If you have a long term need for the library I suggest improving the docs to help yourself and other contributors.

Hi ,
When we send messages, the disclaimer defined in Mail flow rule will always be at the bottom of the entire body content, the original content will also be considered as part of body content.
It there feasible to take the disclaimer to the bottom of the most recent content?
This is very important for most users and customers if could help. Thanks

Regards,

This is about Office 365 exchange admin, mail flow “Organization Disclaimer in office 365 “

What is the daily limit for ews java api to make calls?

Pavel Kropachev

@pkropachev

@lokeshk307
EWS Java API as the library doesn't have any limits for requests. Check Exchange (on-premises and online) throttling policy.
