I know that how to expend detail from an email group, but may I know any method to revert to check the email is belong to which group? I see that Outlook 2010 can show "Member Of" tab when highlighted a contact, but how I can do similar thing by API?
Thanks
A similar question was posted on the MSDN Exchange Server Development forum and here's what Glen Scales said:
"EWS wont give you details about group membership of a users (it also wont return extra properties from Active Directory like you could in Mapi). A few things that you can do in EWS is expand a group using the expandGroup operation http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/exchange/microsoft.exchange.webservices.data.exchangeservice.expandgroup%28v=exchg.80%29.aspx.
The other thing you can do with Groups if you have Exchange 2010 is take advantage of any of the MailTip operations.
For what you want to do you would be better to use LDAP directory to lookup Active directory and get the group membership or if you really wanted to use an Exchange API look at using the Exchange Management Shell cmdlets."
The link he provided doesn't work - I assume he was pointing here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/microsoft.exchange.webservices.data.exchangeservice.expandgroup(v=exchg.80).aspx.

I'm trying to integrate LinkedIn API v2 to the app I'm developing for my client and I need help with it. Basically, I need to allow users to fetch some of their LinkedIn profile data and save it to the platform. As I understood, the first version of the API will no longer be supported. https://developer.linkedin.com/docs
So, the problem is that the default field set I was able to retrieve is extremely limited. And it seems like I should apply for the Developer Program here to gain additional API access
https://business.linkedin.com/marketing-solutions/marketing-partners/become-a-partner/marketing-developer-program
I already submitted the application but haven't yet received any response. The frustrating part is that I'm not even sure if this is what I should do to get access.
Here's what I already discovered
Here it's said that the partner's program isn't available
https://www.linkedin.com/help/linkedin/answer/97491
Here it sends me to the partner program
https://developer.linkedin.com/support/faq
Should I choose marketing? https://developer.linkedin.com/partner-programs
I suppose so because other options seem to be irrelevant. So I already applied here
https://business.linkedin.com/marketing-solutions/marketing-partners/become-a-partner/marketing-developer-program
But still no answer
Here are the developers facing the same issues with no answer as well

Here seems to be the answer to a similar question but still, no specific link or steps to apply for a partner's program
LinkedIn API V2 - Can't get summary, skills and headline
Here they also tell about some partner's program but again without specifics
Linkedin oauth2 r_liteprofile not being returned from api
Here in the official doc, it's also said that I should apply to the program (which I did)
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/linkedin/consumer/integrations/self-serve/migration-faq?context=linkedin/consumer/context
I applied on the 23rd of January and I'm still waiting for the approval without even knowing if this program will give me the API access I need
So I need to know one of the following
If my application will be approved it'll give me the extended access to the API v2 (r_fullprofile permission)
If the application I submitted isn't enough what else should I do in order to get the extended access to the API v2 (r_fullprofile permission)
It feels to be a simple process and I don't really understand why it has to involve the Marketing Developer Program when I only need to access some of the fields. I'm sure there is a reason for that. Could anybody from support provide some steps that I or my client should take on order to get the API access?
I already created the app as a developer here and successfully tested it
https://www.linkedin.com/developers/apps
So, just to be clear, the problem is not in something not working technically. It's just that I receive a very limited set of field of a user's profile and I need to expand it
I used Windows 10 email app to connect to my exchange server, i.e. I have instance of UserDataAccount for my exchange server already set up.
I want to write another app that will use this account to talk to Exchange, and I would like to use only WinRT API.
First I need to get Exchange info from UserDataAccount. if it's hosted in cloud, I think I will need URL, tenant ID and username. The problem is that UserDataAccount does not have this info. There is class DeviceAccountConfiguration that seems to have it all, but I cannot find a way to get instance of this class.
Once I can get info about Exchange connection, I can use Office356 REST to talk to Exchange. The reason I want to talk to Exchange directly is because I did not find WinRT API that can use UserDataAccount to retrieve Exchange specific info, for example full info from Exchange about Contact.
So I have UserDataAcccount, and from this data account I need to get credentials and info about Exchange API (EWS, or REST). After that it should be easy, see Adam's answer with link to office356 sample code.
I spent some time poking around WinRT API, but it's poorely documented, and it's hard to discover relationships between different objects, and some methods throw NotImplemented exceptions.
Is WintRT API ready to be used? It looks like a lot of things are disconnected and missing.
Please help!
Thank you
We have sample code for WinRT to access contact.
See:
https://github.com/OfficeDev/O365-Windows-Start
**Contacts**
Get contacts
Create contacts
Update contacts
Delete contacts
Change contact photo
Also we have just plain REST api examples including calling into a test sandbox at https://dev.outlook.com/RestGettingStarted
Ok so that title is not the most informative, but I'm having a hard time describing whats going on.
The Context:
I have a C# application that manages a bunch of contacts. Using the Outlook/exchange web service (EWS) managed API I am able to create an exchange contact with the email addresses and phone numbers and all that.
This is as a replacement of a service based Active-Directory based person list (that was then linked to in outlook) also developed by us.
The Problem:
After removing the old active directory list this started happening.
Whenever you select a contact from my new (ews based) list (in a to: field in ta new email) it would look liked it started to auto resolve. Then it displays the message that the mail cannot be sent because the email doenst exist anymore or is not valid.
If you check the autocomplete dropdown for that contact it now displays something like this: peter keutels <8b620d77d1df4bf0b7aad23f4632a503-peterkeutels#email.adres>
and in the NDA it lists the recipient as Exchange+20Administrative+20Group+20+28FYDIBOHF23SPDLT+29_cn=Recipients_cn=8b620d77d1df4bf0b7aad23f4632a503-Peter+20Keutels#COMPANY.OFFICE
instead of just peterkeutels#email.adress
We tried clearing autocomplete, disabling auto-resolve. recreating outlook accounts...
I am totaly lost with this. I feel like this might just be an outlook problem. And in that case I probably should post this in another website. But I created the problem by using EWS. I hope I can fix it with EWS as well..
After removing the old active directory list this started happening.
The first thing I would check is the contacts themselves if you look at the contacts with a MAPI editor like OutlookSpy of MFCMapi and take a look at the EmailAddress properties for the Contact you may find these Contacts have the Ex address of the List your removed. (In that case you need to fix the contacts).
We tried clearing autocomplete
What method did you use and what version of Outlook are you using ? on later versions of Outlook this gets stored as an FAI item in the Mailbox so you might want delete that Item eg http://www.msoutlook.info/question/backup-and-restore-autocomplete
(There also the suggested contacts folder and OWA also has a seperate AutoComplete)
Cheers

I'm facing an issue with an application I'm developing using Google Drive.
I have a Google group with some users inside, and I share a collection with this group.
When I try to find this collection using Google Drive API (files().list()), as one of the users of this group, the collection shows up properly.
However, if I add another user to the group (either using API or Google CPanel), and try to find the collection using Google Drive API as this user, the collection doesn't show up, as if the user is not able to see it even though he is in a group allowed to see the collection.
If I manually open once the collection through my browser, then the collection is showing through Drive API.
Is this a normal behaviour ? In my use case I cannot expect from the users to open in their browser each and every collection shared with them in order for the application to work.
Any insight?
I opened a Google Support case about this and apparently this behavior is "expected". Here are some excerpts from my exchange with "Angel" from
Google Enterprise Support (typos corrected and emphasis mine):
After reviewing the stackoverflow question, we need to clarify to you that the behavior shown is expected. When adding a user to a group, this group must be added again for any files that it has been shared with.
and
All information previously provided is from internal documentation for Drive UI; however the functionality is the same for SDK, therefore, group must be deleted and added back to the list of users that have access to files/folders after adding a new member.
So, there you have it. Not sure if #Burcu will ever come back and confirm.
<EDIT> It gets worse. According to this Google document, groups with more than 200 members will never see files shared with them, even if you delete and add the group back. </EDIT>
Useless post-answer rant follows:
This behavior, even if it is "expected" by Google, does not seem to be properly documented, and it is neither expected nor usable by clients of the service. How are we supposed to know when a user has been added to a group that has items shared with it? Are we supposed to constantly monitor group memberships as well as maintain a list of all things shared with the group and then *re*share them with the group when the membership changes, just to get consistent behavior? It makes me wonder why Google doesn't already do this on the back end; it can't be that expensive to register a list of callbacks with a group that are triggered upon membership changes. And the requirement that we actually unshare is even more bizarre, since it necessitates a short period of time during which nobody in the group can access the resource.
Trying to figure out if I can do the following via the box-api.
authenticate as an enterprise admin
lookup a user (in our case a special box user named "group_xxx" where this account will serve as a non-person shared group like "group_math_dept", "group_engineering_dept", etc...).
query for the root folder info for a given user-id (perhaps "GET /users//folders/0"
(tried that it doesn't work).
View the list of enterprise users with whom the given folder has been shared.
Modify the list of enterprise users with whom the given folder has been shared.
What I'd like to do is develop an app to delegate admin of these special group accounts to an appropriate individual in the given group. We can maintain who admins what locally. I can authenticate as one of our Box Admins (i.e. I have working code for steps 1 and 2). However, I don't see support in the API v2.0 doc for steps 3, 4, and 5.
Am I missing anything?
Unfortunately my understanding is the same as what you've found; that account and meta operations like steps 3 through 5 are not currently supported through the API.
UPDATE:
Looking at Box's developers blog it looks like functionality for steps 4 and 5 were actually just added, but are not yet in the documentation.
http://developers.blog.box.com/2012/09/10/v2-api-updates-keep-rolling/
Box actually has some more enterprise/admin API methods in private beta. Those are made accessible to early testers for a controlled environment, and include methods to perform operations on behalf of other users with administrative privileges.
If you're interested, feel free to email api [at] box [dot] com to discuss the testing of beta methods.
