I need a quick help. How can I use Exchange Streaming API to intercept New Mail Arrival Event every time and fetch it content.
This article talks about PowerSHell and this talks about Console APP. How do I automate it? One way is Windows Service but is there any other and easy way??
Thanks
You Need some Kind of host which receives the notifications. Whether this is a console application or a Windows Service is up to you.

I need advice after looking a lot about receive push/toast notifications regardless of the status of the application (closed or open).
The application communicates with a NodeJS API.
The idea is that a user logs in once to the application and then can receive notifications (depending on his account): i the user restarts his system for example, at startup he receives notifications without having to open the application (like the Mail application for example).
Most tutorials on MSDN use Azure and I don' use this. I would like to know if you have tips or links (tutorials, ...) for doing this in an UWP (or WinRT) application.
Thanks in advance for your help.

You can send push notifications from your NodeJS api via Windows Notification Service. This service has nothing to do with azure but when using Azure Notifications Hub it will be easier to get it implemented, but again this is not required;
In essence:
- register your app in dev center
- obtain a client id and client secret to use WNS in the dev center
- When your app launch it obtains a push notification channel uri and sends this to your backend. Your backend need to save all the URI's for the different devices
- When you have a notification select the uri's of the devices you want to send the push notification to
- post a xml message (based on what you want to update, tile, toast, badge or raw) to the URI's. To be able to post you need to authenticatie with the client id and client secret

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
I have a general comprehension question about OAuth access token retrieval for a Google Chrome Extension.
I have a popup HTML window in the browser that uses Jquery to request data from the server (a LAMP stack on AWS). The data is presented by PHP scripts which access a MySQL database. All very basic stuff.
I now want to implement a push messaging system using Google Cloud Messaging to alert users of new content that they can check. However I don't really understand where I should request the access token and how to listen for the response. I figure it should be in the PHP scripts but all the Google documentation that I've read states the user has to be present in order to allow access to push messaging. That tells me I should put it in the JavaScript but I feel this is a bad idea because every user could potentially request an access token when I think I only need one every 3000 seconds or so. If my app was completely implemented in PHP I'm sure this would be possible and now I'm worried that splitting it up like this leaves push messaging out of the question. Am I missing a crucial detail or just out of luck?
If the data access you need isn't user-specific, then you're right, there's no good reason to get a separate token for each user. Check out https://developers.google.com/accounts/cookbook/roles/Apps which discusses some options.
Currently I am running an ASP.NET web application and my web page needs to provide a button to get the Lync Meeting URL just like the Outlook does:
Please see the screenshot here: Lync Meeting Address in Outlook
The behavior of this button is when it is clicked, the Lync Meeting URL is retrieved (maybe from the Exchange server) and is shown on a asp:Label control on the web page.
I googled but I have been told that there are three SDKs can be considered for this scenario:
Lync SDK - seems the Lync client must be running while the SDK is in use
Microsoft Unified Communications Managed API (UCMA)
Microsoft Exchange Web Services (EWS)
I am really confused on these three SDKs, and don't know how to achieve my goal by utilizing these SDKs, could someone please help me? It would be much appreciate if you can post some sample code here.
Thank you!
I have implemented a similar solution(winform application) on UCMA. But you need a trusted application server to run such program.
Connect to Exchange and retrieve the user's meeting schedule using Exchange WebServices (like you said with EWS), there is a property that hold the meeting URL in each meeting object, here is a good overview https://mohamedasakr.wordpress.com/2012/05/16/get-lync-online-meetings-information-using-the-ews-managed-api-2/
Make sure you are connected to the Lync Server and signed in. there are a bunch of good tutorials in the "How To" tab on the MSDN Lync 2013 guide
Once you have an instance of LyncClient initialized, call
yourLyncClientInstanceConversationManager.AddConversation();
In your Conversation added event handler, use
yourLyncClientInstance.ConversationManager.JoinConference(exchangeUrl);
Hi I have an HTML5 app which has a User Login. The app has a Notes option. I am looking for a service which would help me to sync the notes for that user account. So the same user can login in a different device and see the Notes in their device. I cannot use iCloud as Android doesnt support it.
We tried to store the notes in the user db using jsonp but still had some issues.
Someone mentioned about Pusher.com but looks like the service is expensive for a starter like us. Is there any more reliable and cheap options for us? W
Parse is probably more in line with what you are looking for. Pusher provides a service for sending push notifications, but you mentioned the need to store data in the cloud. Parse can accomplish this and does have a free basic plan that you can get started with.
