Hello Anne,

I'm using powershell to contact the service communication API's (connecting via the azure app)

Now i am able to get data from the API's but i want to set a filter that returns only data from a specific time. Do you have an idea how this filter should be built?

Get Messages

Description:

Returns the messages about the service over a certain time range. Use the type filter to filter for "Service Incident", "Planned Maintenance", or "Message Center" messages.

Service Description

Path

/Messages

Filters

StartTime

Filter by Start Time (DateTimeOffset, default: ge CurrentTime - 7 days).

I'm trying to create this uri with above filter:

"https://manage.office.com/api/v1.0/$tenant/ServiceComms/Messages?$filter=StartTime ge 'CurrentTime - 2 days'"
