Hello i try to write an application for a club that makes it easier for older member to use outlook and to send emails. Just a friendly way so elderly People can easy write and see the stuff on screen. But i am a novice programmer and never used the EWS managed API before. What i want is to Synchronice the Global Address List to my programm so i can assign them to an object and do more stuff. But i dont have any clues anymore.
What i tried:
For my own local Contact List (works)
private void AsignValuetoClass(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
//For the connection
es.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
es.AutodiscoverUrl("max.mustermann@muster.at", RedirectionUrlValidationCallback);
//How many Contacts are in the folder
ContactsFolder contactsfolder = ContactsFolder.Bind(es, WellKnownFolderName.Contacts);
//To get a specific number of contacts
int numItems = contactsfolder.TotalCount < 50 ? contactsfolder.TotalCount : 50;
//object of the Itemview
ItemView view = new ItemView(numItems);
//return the stuff
FindItemsResults<Item> contactIds = es.FindItems(WellKnownFolderName.Contacts, view);
//loop throug the item
foreach (Item item in contactIds)
{
if (item is Contact)
{
//assign of the contact items
Contact contact = item as Contact;
//new list
List<Contact> testlist = new List<Contact>();
//Add the contacts
testlist.Add(contact);
//loop through contact list
foreach (Contact Liste in testlist)
{
//new object on every run
TestKlasse test = new TestKlasse();
//assign
test.id = Convert.ToString(contact.Id);
test.Vorname = contact.GivenName;
test.Nachname = contact.Surname;
}
Console.WriteLine("Some stupid Text");
}
}
}
To get the contacts from the GAL (dont work).
private void SearchContacts(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//For the connection
es.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
es.AutodiscoverUrl("max.mustermann@muster.at", RedirectionUrlValidationCallback);
NameResolutionCollection nameResolutions = es.ResolveName(
"Contacts",
ResolveNameSearchLocation.DirectoryThenContacts,
true);
foreach (NameResolution nameResolution in nameResolutions)
{
ExpandGroupResults groupResults = es.ExpandGroup(nameResolution.Mailbox.Address);
foreach (EmailAddress member in groupResults.Members)
{
Console.WriteLine(member.Name + " <" + member.Address + ">");
}
}
}
I tried also the resolvename() stuff but its only for one contact or matching contacts. I need every Contact. Here is the code: private void SearchContacts(object sender, EventArgs e) {
//For the connection
es.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
es.AutodiscoverUrl("max.mustermann@muster.at", RedirectionUrlValidationCallback);
// Identify the mailbox folders to search for potential name resolution matches.
List<FolderId> folders = new List<FolderId>() { new FolderId(WellKnownFolderName.Contacts) };
// Search for all contact entries in the default mailbox contacts folder and in Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS). This results in a call to EWS.
NameResolutionCollection coll = es.ResolveName("Anderl", folders, ResolveNameSearchLocation.ContactsThenDirectory, false);
foreach (NameResolution nameRes in coll)
{
Console.WriteLine("Contact name: " + nameRes.Mailbox.Name);
Console.WriteLine("Contact e-mail address: " + nameRes.Mailbox.Address);
Console.WriteLine("Mailbox type: " + nameRes.Mailbox.MailboxType);
}
}
Any help would be great so thx for your time. And sorry for my bad english.
This might come a bit late but one way to overcome the 100 user limit would be to simply append each character of the alphabet to "SMTP:" within a loop like this:
private _exchangeSvc = new ExchangeService();
const string SMTP_PREFIX = "SMTP:";
const string ABC = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz";
public List<NameResolution> GetGAL()
{
var gal = new List<NameResolution>();
foreach (char c in ABC)
{
string ambiguousName = SMTP_PREFIX + c;
var nameResCollection = _exchangeSvc.ResolveName(
ambiguousName,
ResolveNameSearchLocation.DirectoryOnly,
false);
gal.AddRange(nameResCollection);
}
//Uncomment the line below if you find duplicates.
// gal = gal.Distict().ToList()
return gal;
}
This worked for me when I needed the GAL via EWS, I only had to retrieve ~400 users though.
