Retrieve folder favorites with EWS
Not sure if this is the correct place to ask, the old Exchange Development Forum is no longer available.
We are trying to retrieve favorite folders (shown in Outlook as "Favorites") with EWS.
To do that we open the associated items of the "common views" folder.
Using MFCMapi and EWSEditor we have identified/guessed the PidTagWlinkSection flag to indicate an active favorite if it has the value 1.
We do not know how to retrieve the folder that has to be associated with this favorite though.
Any tips how we could identify this?

EWS gets the associated items in the common views folder with a PidTagWlinkSection value of 1, extracts the PidTagWlinkEntryId from it, converts the format, and then finds the associated file with the ConvertId and GetFolder operations.
