Outlook Deeplink opens a email compose window in draft state only for the first time
Meghana-MSFT, This is the url deeplink I am passing to window.open(url)
url = "https://outlook.office.com/mail/deeplink/compose/{your-itemid}?ItemID={your-itemid}&exvsurl=1"
Meghana-MSFT none of these links work anymore. Outlook 365 opens and just shows the loading icon.
maheshkumaryu - Could you please check the below samples that show how to call the compose deeplink
this is a good and expected Compose deeplink
this is a good and expected Read deeplink
this is a little bit of a mix-and-match and ... not quite right. you're likely to run into some unexpectedness with this link
Could you please use the correct compose deeplink syntax and confirm if that helps?- Meghana-MSFT - Thanks for the confirmation from the Outlook team.
Can you please provide an example to perform this in the SDK approach if I have an ItemID that I can pass to an API and let the browser open the Outlook window in Compose mode ? maheshkumaryu - We got the below response from the Outlook team.
"This is using a pre-Teams app web URL format that deep links into OWA. It is recommended to use “Mail” capability in the JS SDK, which is the most structured/strongly typed way to support this scenario."
Thanks
