Exchange Webservice Managed API - Find items by ex

问题:

I have tried to use extended properties on appointments with EWS, but I can not seem to find the appointments again. The set property part is equal to the one shown in this question:

How to Update an Appointment from Exchange Web Service Managed API 2.0 in ASP.NET

When I try to retrieve the appointment, I have followed these examples:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/uc14trainingcourse_5l_topic3#_Toc254008129 http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/exchange/dd633697(v=exchg.80).aspx

But I never get any appointments returned when I make a lookup.

Here is the code for the lookup:

        ItemView view = new ItemView(10);

        // Get the GUID for the property set.
        Guid MyPropertySetId = new Guid("{" + cGuid + "}");

        // Create a definition for the extended property.
        ExtendedPropertyDefinition extendedPropertyDefinition =
          new ExtendedPropertyDefinition(MyPropertySetId, "AppointmentID", MapiPropertyType.String);

        view.PropertySet =
         new PropertySet(
               BasePropertySet.IdOnly,
               ItemSchema.Subject,
               AppointmentSchema.Start,
               AppointmentSchema.End, extendedPropertyDefinition);

        SearchFilter filter = new SearchFilter.Exists(extendedPropertyDefinition);

        FindItemsResults<Item> findResults = service.FindItems(WellKnownFolderName.Inbox, filter,
            view);

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Edit: When I try to create the property like the documentation shows:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/exchange/dd633654(v=exchg.80).aspx

It fails because its a Guid im adding as property value. :-/

Edit again: Just tried getting all appointments for today, and getting the property from the appointment I just created, and it says the same as I stored, without the {}, so it must be somthing with the filter.

Edit once again* It has somthing to do with

 ExtendedPropertyDefinition extendedProperty = new ExtendedPropertyDefinition(

if I use:

 new ExtendedPropertyDefinition(
                DefaultExtendedPropertySet.Appointment,
                "AppointmentID",
                MapiPropertyType.String);

It finds all the appointments with properties, but if I search for a specific one:

 Guid MyPropertySetId = new Guid("{" + cGuid + "}");

 ExtendedPropertyDefinition extendedProperty =
            new ExtendedPropertyDefinition(
                MyPropertySetId,
                "AppointmentID",
                MapiPropertyType.String);

Then nothing is found.

here's a samplecode how to create an appointment with the customid and find it after saving:

ExchangeService service = new ExchangeService(ExchangeVersion.Exchange2007_SP1);
        service.AutodiscoverUrl("[e-mail]");

        ExtendedPropertyDefinition def = new ExtendedPropertyDefinition(DefaultExtendedPropertySet.PublicStrings, "AppointmenId", MapiPropertyType.String);

        Guid testid = Guid.NewGuid ();

        Appointment appointment = new Appointment(service);
        appointment.Subject = "Test";
        appointment.Start = DateTime.Now.AddHours(1);
        appointment.End = DateTime.Now.AddHours(2);
        appointment.SetExtendedProperty(def, testid.ToString());
        appointment.Save(WellKnownFolderName.Calendar);

        SearchFilter filter = new SearchFilter.IsEqualTo(def, testid.ToString());

        FindItemsResults<Item> fir = service.FindItems(WellKnownFolderName.Calendar, filter, new ItemView(10));

hope this helps you...

You search the inbox for appointments. There you will never find them. Try to search in the Calendar instead.

Here is an example of putting the guid as extension property and getting the appointment based on the guid.

private static readonly PropertyDefinitionBase AppointementIdPropertyDefinition = new ExtendedPropertyDefinition(DefaultExtendedPropertySet.PublicStrings, "AppointmentID", MapiPropertyType.String);
public static PropertySet PropertySet = new PropertySet(BasePropertySet.FirstClassProperties, AppointementIdPropertyDefinition);


//Setting the property for the appointment 
 public static void SetGuidForAppointement(Appointment appointment)
{
    try
    {
        appointment.SetExtendedProperty((ExtendedPropertyDefinition)AppointementIdPropertyDefinition, Guid.NewGuid().ToString());
        appointment.Update(ConflictResolutionMode.AlwaysOverwrite, SendInvitationsOrCancellationsMode.SendToNone);
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        // logging the exception
    }
}

//Getting the property for the appointment
 public static string GetGuidForAppointement(Appointment appointment)
{
    var result = "";
    try
    {
        appointment.Load(PropertySet);
        foreach (var extendedProperty in appointment.ExtendedProperties)
        {
            if (extendedProperty.PropertyDefinition.Name == "AppointmentID")
            {
                result = extendedProperty.Value.ToString();
            }
        }
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
     // logging the exception
    }
    return result;
}
