Filtering out `MailboxNotEnabledForRESTAPI`

Question

I often receive a "mailbox not enabled" MailboxNotEnabledForRESTAPI because many users have not made their first/initial login attempt.

What filter can I apply when selecting users...to exclude all users who have not yet initialized their Exchange Online mailbox?

I see an AccountEnabled property I could filter on, except this property is read/write...which tells me it is not really what I'm looking for.

Hi @Brent Arias ,

Yes. we often receive a "mailbox not enabled" MailboxNotEnabledForRESTAPI because many users have not made their first/initial login attempt.

Please refer below Microsoft article to get more details on this case.

Please refer below Microsoft article to get all details of "user resource type"

user

So accountEnabled property is of "Boolean" type and if it is true then account is enabled; otherwise, if false then account is disabled. This property is required when a user is created. It Returned only on $select and it supports $filter(eq, ne, not, and in).

Hope this helps.
