We're following this document: webhooks to setup webhook notifications to subscribe to any new emails in mailbox of a specific user. But we don't want to get notifications for new emails in certain folders e.g. Sent, Drafts. So, can we specify a filter to only give us notifications for certain folders by giving their IDs as shown below: 

{  
  "changeType": "updated",  
  "notificationUrl": "https://webhook.azurewebsites.net/notificationClient",  
  "resource": "users/34efd5d6-e729-44b8-b109-4f3e5274cdda/messages$filter=parentFolderId eq 'AQMkADY4N2YwYmQwLWQyNTEtNGFhAGItYWVmYi0zNDZmOGFjZTljNGIALgAAA_5PEj-ru5tEoSQhNZMolB0BANwG7UKC_KZBtlthtZP2hSQAAAIBCQAAAA=='",  
  "expirationDateTime": "2016-03-20T11:00:00.0000000Z",  
  "clientState": "SecretClientState"  
}

    Hi @Umair Ahmed ,

    To receive change notification subscription for particular folder in your outlook you can create a subscription for a specific Outlook folder using the below query.

    API Inbox: me/mailFolders('inbox')/messages

    This will help you to create notification for particular folder from your mailbox so that you can receive the notification only for the required folder.

    You can refer to this link for further details .
