Outlook: Message move events

Opened this issue · 0 comments

It would be great if there was support for hooking into message move events (between mail folders) in the client, without having to manage change notification subscriptions in MS Graph.

We are working on a plugin that files email away to projects when they are moved to a folder with a specific naming convention. It works at the moment using change notifications, but it's complicated and we are hitting throttling limits on MS Graph (sometimes just on translating office item Ids to Immutable REST Ids) when doing things in bulk. Rich change notifications with immutable Ids are also buggy, for example delete notification will not give you the parent folder Id of the folder it was deleted from - it will give the parent Id of the folder it was moved to!

It really should be possible to track email movements without having to make backend calls to MS Graph!
