Exchange Online REST API
Hello,
I tried it with:
iwr "https://outlook.office.com/api/v2.0/me/calendarview?startDateTime=2018-05-01T01:00:00&endDateTime=2018-10-31T23:00:00" -Credential $(Get-Credential)
And the result is:
iwr : The remote server returned an error: (403) Forbidden.
At line:1 char:1
+ iwr "https://outlook.office.com/api/v2.0/me/calendarview?startDateTim ...

eption
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : WebCmdletWebResponseException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.InvokeWebRequestCommand

You cannot pass credentials directly. You need to get a token and pass that token via an auth header. The documentation on that is here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/rest/get-started
Hi i am trying to access a functional email box messages using the outlook API 2.0 using my credentials using the below line. i get a Forbidden 403 error. my intention is to search for a certain subject in the functional email box and download the attachment. Pls let me know what should i check from my side.
$mail =
Invoke-RestMethod -Headers @{Authorization =("Bearer "+ $Authorization.access_token)}`
-Uri https://outlook.office.com/api/v2.0/users/retailoperations@domain.com/messages `
-Method GetThe below one works for accessing my email inbox.
$mail =
Invoke-RestMethod -Headers @{Authorization =("Bearer "+ $Authorization.access_token)}`
-Uri https://outlook.office.com/api/v2.0/me/messages `
-Method GetSince you are accessing other people's messages, you need the relevant permissions - either Full Access permissions on their mailbox, or a corresponding API-level permissions via the app you are getting the token for.
