According to the docs CustomProperties.saveAsync saves item-specific custom properties to the server. Does it also internally perform the same logic as MessageCompose.saveAsync ? We have business logic that requires the draft to be saved and a custom property to be set with a single button action. I am trying to understand if both calls are necessary or if the order matters. Option 1: Call MessageCompose.saveAsync() then set the custom property and save with CustomProperties.saveAsync() Option 2: Set the custom property, call CustomProperties.saveAsync() , and then call MessageCompose.saveAsync() Option 3: Set the custom property, call CustomProperties.saveAsync() , (dont call MessageCompose.saveAsync()` since the draft automatically is saved and this is redundant).

OfficeJS does CustomProperties.saveAsync save the entire item?

According to the docs

Option 1: Call MessageCompose.saveAsync() then set the custom property and save with CustomProperties.saveAsync()
Option 2: Set the custom property, call CustomProperties.saveAsync(), and then call MessageCompose.saveAsync()
Option 3: Set the custom property, call CustomProperties.saveAsync(), (dont call MessageCompose.saveAsync()` since the draft automatically is saved and this is redundant).

From playing around with it, it seems to me the following is true:

CustomProperties.saveAsync() will save the item as a draft when it has not yet been saved

CustomProperties.saveAsync() will not save the item again if it has already been saved

This is just an observation, but i am hoping someone can tell me that i am wrong (or right).

For now I am assuming the correct order is:

Option 1: Call MessageCompose.saveAsync() then set the custom property and save with CustomProperties.saveAsync()
