I am using exchange calendar in my web application.Before inserting an event to a calendar from my web application to exchange server i would like to get the user permissions on that particular calendar on my c# side.I got the permission by executing the following powershell command .But stuck at getting the same using the c#.
Get-MailboxFolderPermission -Identity john@contoso.com:\Calendar -User "test@test.com"
I could not find any way to it without invoking powershell, but it can be done like this:
var runspace = RunspaceFactory.CreateRunspace();
runspace.Open();
object psSessionConnection;
// Create a powershell session for remote exchange server
using (var powershell = PowerShell.Create())
{
var command = new PSCommand();
command.AddCommand("Get-MailboxFolderPermission");
command.AddParameter("Identity", "john@contoso.com:\Calendar");
command.AddParameter("User", "test@test.com"));
powershell.Commands = command;
powershell.Runspace = runspace;
var result = powershell.Invoke();
psSessionConnection = result[0];
}
What you are doing, is to actually run the PS command from the code itself.
I also found the EWS api which probably contains what you are looking for.
Getting the current permissions for a folder by using the Bind method.
// Create a property set to use for folder binding.
PropertySet propSet = new PropertySet(BasePropertySet.FirstClassProperties, FolderSchema.Permissions);
// Bind to the folder and get the current permissions.
// This call results in a GetFolder call to EWS.
Folder sentItemsFolder = Folder.Bind(service, new FolderId(WellKnownFolderName.Calendar, "test@test.com"), propSet);
