Get event response message

Anshul Agrawal 0

Is there an API that can provide the response message for an event attendee's status? We are currently using the events API to read event responses, but it does not include the response message. We want to be able to read the message along with the declined/accepted status.

Hi @Anshul Agrawal

You can get the event with a GET request, containing the attendees attribute, which contains the status of all participants.

The test results are as follows:

Hi @Yakun Huang-MSFT ,

Thank you for the reponse.

With this api we only get the attendee status (which is whether they have accepted/declined, etc. the event).

What we need is the message they declined the event with.

For example: attendee declined the event saying "Please reschedule after next monday".

Is there a way we can get this message("Please reschedule after next monday") in the api resonse?

Yes, this is fine, as long as you suggest a new time when you decline the meeting.

The test results are as follows:

The detailed process is in this link, please check out:

Ok so just for clarification, we can only read the new proposed time if the attendee uses "Propose new time" feature. No way to read the exact message they responded with?

Example would be they accepted the meeting saying "please include XYZ user to the meeting or please be prepared with ABC presentation before the meeting". Any way to read these messages ?

If you need to get the specific mail content, which cannot be achieved through this endpoint, you can use the query mail endpoint, the request method is as follows:

GET /me/messages
