Question

MS Graph API-Send mail-short url in message body delivered as longer in recipient mail

B Jayachithra 51

Hi Team,

Short url in message body is delivered as longer url in recipients mail. The url is appearing a long text when its delivered to user inbox. But the same email in sent items of mailbox is showing original text. This is creating issue while message is forwarded and url is not working as expected.

Hi,

API Code is written in Java and request is made from eclipse like below.We use client credentials application type

String messagebody_text_or_path_to_file_with_text = "https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/user-sendmail?view=graph-rest-1.0";

message.body.content = messagebody_text_or_path_to_file_with_text ;

_appClient.users(user) .sendMail(UserSendMailParameterSet .newBuilder() .withMessage(message) .withSaveToSentItems(null) .build()) .buildRequest() .post();

What we receive in mail body as:

Can you please share a screenshot of the request made from MS Graph Explorer?
Following is working fine for me:

POST https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/sendMail
Content-type: application/json

{
  "message": {
    "subject": "Meet for lunch?",
    "body": {
      "contentType": "Text",
      "content": "ENTER_URL_HERE"
    },
    "toRecipients": [
      {
        "emailAddress": {
          "address": "******@contoso.onmicrosoft.com"
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}

Hello,

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/sendMail will not work as our mailbox is using client credential flow instead delegated. Please provide sample POST URL for this type to test from Graph Explorer.

Akash Jadav 85 Microsoft External Staff

Please find the attached POST request as well as JAVA generated code from Graph Explorer as well.

GraphServiceClient graphClient = GraphServiceClient.builder().authenticationProvider( authProvider ).buildClient();  

Message message = new Message(); 
message.subject = "Meet for lunch?"; 
ItemBody body = new ItemBody(); 
body.contentType = BodyType.TEXT; 
body.content = "ENTER_URL_HERE"; 
message.body = body; 
LinkedList<Recipient> toRecipientsList = new LinkedList<Recipient>(); 
Recipient toRecipients = new Recipient(); EmailAddress emailAddress = new EmailAddress(); emailAddress.address = "{emailId}"; 
toRecipients.emailAddress = emailAddress; 
toRecipientsList.add(toRecipients); 
message.toRecipients = toRecipientsList;  

graphClient.users("{UserId}")     
	.sendMail(UserSendMailParameterSet         
		.newBuilder()         
		.withMessage(message)         
		.withSaveToSentItems(null)         
		.build())     
	.buildRequest()     
	.post();

POST https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/{userId}/sendMail 
Content-type: application/json  

{
  "message": {
    "subject": "Meet for lunch?",
    "body": {
      "contentType": "Text",
      "content": "ENTER_URL_HERE"
    },
    "toRecipients": [
      {
        "emailAddress": {
          "address": "******@contoso.onmicrosoft.com"
        }
      }
    ]
  }
}

You can provide your authentication in respective programming language and test the scenario. I suggest testing it first over graph explorer and then implementing it over solution.

I am getting below msg

Forbidden - 403 - 170ms. Either the signed-in user does not have sufficient privileges, or you need to consent to one of the permissions on the Modify permissions tab. Attached snapshot. I cannot modify permission for this mailbox. How to test otherwise?

Can you click on Modify Permission tab visible in screenshot and consent the relevant permission and re-try?
