For the last several months, Microsoft Graph engineering teams in Redmond and around the world have worked to prepare for Ignite 2018. That moment has finally arrived. We have 58 sessions across Ignite 2018 that highlight the ways in which the Microsoft Graph is changing our products and ecosystem. We’re pleased to provide an overview of the all work we’ve done to create a richer, deeper, more powerful tool for our developer communities and the customers they serve.
In the coming weeks, we're rolling out a new feature designed to make it easier to work with Outlook item IDs: Immutable ID. With this feature, Microsoft Graph will provide an identifier in the id property that will not change over the lifetime of the item, so long as the item stays in the same mailbox.
Across the Office platform, we’ve seen an amazing set of new applications developed, spanning from Office-integrated mobile applications, to new SharePoint web parts, to bots and integrations. We’d love to feature some of the best applications and integrations you’ve seen, but we need your help.
Over the last few years, we have been investing in services that help developers access information in Office 365 in a simple and intuitive way. As we make progress on this journey , some technologies become obsolete and they no longer provide the best way to interact with Office 365 data. Today we are sharing our plans for the roadmap of Exchange Web Services (EWS) and the planned deprecation of Basic Auth access for EWS in October 13th, 2020.
Today we are releasing a Timesheet Tool developer template to create your own applications which can give intelligent work insights with the Microsoft Graph and demonstrate how Office extensibility can support local compliance efforts.
Microsoft Graph is the unified API endpoint that offers developers a gateway to the rich data and powerful insights behind a large and growing set of Microsoft products. Based on consistent REST-based standards, tools, and features, the set of scenarios you can power with the Microsoft Graph grows exponentially as new products, datasets and capabilities are added to the endpoint.
At Build 2018, we’ve announced several technologies to help developers enrich emails with new interactive capabilities. These capabilities allow developers to engage with their users more deeply, right in context within the email, thereby reducing the friction between intent and action.
Today we are excited to announce the availability of enhanced Office Add-in analytics within the Universal Store Dev Center. The new Usage report shows how customers are using your add-in across Windows (2016), Mac (2016), iOS, and Web apps.
Developers all around the world are creating code samples and snippets using the Microsoft Graph with all sorts of languages in very different ways every day. Each of these community contributions can be found in blogs, different GitHub repositories and various other places.
