Get the event message body in HTML or text format

Event message bodies can be in HTML or text format.

  • Specify Prefer: outlook.body-content-type="text" to get a event message body returned in text format.
  • Specify Prefer: outlook.body-content-type="html", or just skip the header, to return the event message body in HTML format.

If you specify either header, the response will include the corresponding Preference-Applied header as confirmation:

  • For text format requests: Preference-Applied: outlook.body-content-type="text"
  • For HTML format requests: Preference-Applied: outlook.body-content-type="html"
