Graph API Presence should support Application permissions

AnnieWang Very much appreciate your update in Jan regarding this being worked on this year. As it is now May, is there any further clarity on when we may see this come through into production?

Without the ability to read permissions trough Application permission, we have implemented the feature using delegated permissions, but users are not happy about having to log in to see presence.

What I forgot to mention to everyone following this post:
Please up vote the feature request at the https://feedbackportal.microsoft.com/feedback/idea/33600439-5124-ed11-a81b-6045bd864d4f!

We need to display the availability of a 'user' on a customer's website (showing a batch with a telephone number when the user is logged in). Due to the description on the permission of Presence.ReadWrite.All that explicitly says that it gives the app access to read all presence info without logged in user, we where telling the customer that it is possible and we started developing a dummy app. 

Now it turns out that the API does not support it in application context. Why? 

When will this feature be released?

See https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/1180351/how-to-get-users-presence-by-an-application please, too.

Upvote this as well, it is really frustrating to have to implement both Application and Delegated permission just because Application Permission doesn't support Presence.Read.All not to mention the Presence.ReadWrite.All in Application Permission is misleading since there is literally no support for read.

I too would like to upvote this.  I have spent the last few weeks trying to get the users presence API to work.  In our case we only need to the read option to know if the user is in a meeting or not.  It seems to me to be something so simple and obvious to offer.  I hope this gets resolved soon.

Hi Valerie, I'm from the engineering team at Microsoft. Thanks for your feedback and this feature is on our backlog! We are working on it this calendar year. 

@Darrel Miller 
Our team is looking forward to the "Set presence" feature. Is it being worked on for app-only scenarios lately? Is it still in your road map?

DaveHmp Ah, sorry, and thank you.

The late November preview looks to be associated with the Planner API, not presence, unless I'm missing something. Got my hopes up then!
