404 Not Found Error

qa.interviewer1 25

When I want to update or delete an event through the graph API https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/events/{event_id}
If the event is already deleted, then it will throw a 404 error code
If the mailbox is inactive, soft-deleted, then it will also throw a 404 error code

So here, I want to know when the event is already deleted from the API, as of now, I'm unable to know because it is throwing 404 in case of mailbox is inactive

Could anyone please help me here?

Stumbled on this blog that details how to check is mailbox is deleted or active-Monitor Mailbox Activity with Graph PowerShell and here is a link to the official Microsoft documentation- Get-MgReportMailboxUsageDetail (Microsoft.Graph.Reports) | Microsoft Learn

For the 404 error are there any more details that you are getting-specifically for MailboxNotEnabledForRESTAPI if the mailbox is deleted.

From the Microsoft Graph API documentation – does the disclaimer note at the beginning of the page possibly apply to your scenario-List events - Microsoft Graph v1.0 | Microsoft Learn
