My meeting created successfully with the attachment in organiser account but receiver getting same meeting request without attachment in his calendar. I think I am missing something in my script please have a look script and suggest me where I can improve

public static void sendRecurringDailyAppointmentswithAttachment(String
appSubject, String appBody, int count, String recipient, String[] 
attachment) {
    ExchangeService sv = service();

    try {

        Appointment app = 
prepareRecurringDailyAppointmentwithAttachment(appSubject, appBody, count, 
sv, attachment );
            app.getRequiredAttendees().add(recipient);
            app.save();

    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
}


private static Appointment 
prepareRecurringDailyAppointmentwithAttachment(String appSubject, String 
appBody, int count, ExchangeService sv, String[] attachment) throws   {
    Appointment app = new Appointment(sv);
    app.setSubject(appSubject);
    app.setBody(MessageBody.getMessageBodyFromText(appBody));

    app.setStart(getNextHourDate());
    app.setEnd(getDateWithHourDelta(2));
    app.getAttachments();

    if (attachment != null){
        for (String fileName : attachment){
              System.out.println("... adding attachment " + fileName);
              app.getAttachments().addFileAttachment(fileName);

        }
 }

    app.setRecurrence(new Recurrence.DailyPattern(app.getStart(), 1));

    app.getRecurrence().setStartDate(app.getStart());
    app.getRecurrence().setNumberOfOccurrences(count);
    return app;
}

Answer 1

I think you need to save the appointment with the attachment first:

if (attachment != null){
    for (String fileName : attachment){
          System.out.println("... adding attachment " + fileName);
          app.getAttachments().addFileAttachment(fileName);
    }
app.save();

Then add attendees and make an update:

app.getRequiredAttendees().add(recipient);
app.update(ConflictResolutionMode.AutoResolve, SendInvitationsOrCancellationsMode.SendOnlyToAll);

    Appointment app = 
prepareRecurringDailyAppointmentwithAttachment(appSubject, appBody, count, 
sv, attachment );
        app.getRequiredAttendees().add(recipient);
        app.update(ConflictResolutionMode.AutoResolve);

    e.printStackTrace();

app.setSubject(appSubject);

app.setStart(getNextHourDate());
app.setEnd(getDateWithHourDelta(2));
app.getAttachments();

    }
app.save();
}

app.setRecurrence(new Recurrence.DailyPattern(app.getStart(), 1));

app.getRecurrence().setStartDate(app.getStart());
app.getRecurrence().setNumberOfOccurrences(count);
return app;
}
