Comments not displaying in graph API calendar event forwarded

Like (0) ShareShare

Posted on 19 Apr 2023 21:22:34 by 8

I am trying to forward a calendar invitation so that people who have already been invited to the event are not notified each time a new individual RSVPs via a Power App that patches to a SharePoint list. I used a Graph API following this page:

 

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/event-forward?view=graph-rest-1.0&tabs=http

 

The fowarding works, but the comments do not appear. Right now it is a blank email with the event as an attachment, but ideally we would include text in the body so our employees don't think it is spam. Can someone help me figure out what I am doing wrong?

    Have a look at this: https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/General-Power-Automate/Forward-Outlook-Event-to-users-using-Update-Event-V3/td-p/320932

    Could you try to reproduce the workaround of Manoelpachecojr?

    I don't think the calendar ID will work in that instance and I couldn't find an article online to resolve the issue.

    I hadn't thought of that! Would I use the dynamic content of the Calendar ID as the field in attachments?

    Can you send an email with attachment using "Send an email" action?

    I would like to have a message in the email body when forwarding the calendar invite. So if I were doing this manually, I would open the calendar invitation, press "forward" and then type in the email message so there would be text to provide context to the attached calendar invitation.

     

    At the moment, there is an attached calendar invitation but no context inside the email body, which we think may be confusing/make people delete the email without looking at what the invitation is for.

    Thanks for the info. I've re-read you initial message and looks I cannot understand what do you want to achieve.

    Let's forget about flows for a while.

    Can you do what you want manually,  using Outlook for Windows or OWA? If so, how exactly?
