GrooveSpaces.Read Operation

The Read operation reads the visible workspaces for the Groove identity. (See Accessing Workspaces Exclusively Through Web Services for information on visible and invisible workspaces.) If you specify a workspace type, the operation returns only workspaces of that type. If you do not specify a type, the operation returns information about all workspaces except for Groove File Sharing workspaces. To access both visible and invisible workspaces, use the Read2 operation.

HTTP Post URL

The HTTP Post URL targets the service for the identity. This URI is provided by the GrooveAccounts.Read2 operation in the Identity.Spaces element.

Input Message Header

GrooveRequestHeader specifies information common to all Groove Web Services, including the Groove Identity URL and the Groove Request key.
