The server is not required to send an individual response for every operation that is sent by the client. The client only receives responses for successful additions, successful fetches, successful changes that include an attachment being added, and failed changes and deletions. When the client does not receive a response, the client MUST assume that the operation succeeded unless informed otherwise.
Protocol Versions
The following table specifies the protocol versions that support this element. The client indicates the protocol version being used by setting either the MS-ASProtocolVersion header, as specified in [MS-ASHTTP] section 2.2.1.1.2.6, or the Protocol version field, as specified in [MS-ASHTTP] section 2.2.1.1.1.1, in the request.

The Delete element is not returned in the Sync response for an SMS deletion when protocol version 14.0 is used.
When protocol version 16.0 or 16.1 is used and the object is a recurrence instance, the object is identified by both the ServerId element of the master item as well as the airsyncbase:InstanceId element of the specific occurrence.
