GetSearchableMailboxes operation

Important

Starting on April 1, 2020, the GetSearchableMailboxes operation will no longer be available in Exchange Online. This operation won't be affected in on-premises versions of Exchange Server. For more information, see Retirement of legacy eDiscovery tools in Exchange Online.

Find information about the GetSearchableMailboxes EWS operation.

The GetSearchableMailboxes operation gets a scoped set of searchable mailboxes for discovery searches. The scope of searchable mailboxes returned in the response is determined by the search filter and whether distribution group membership is expanded.

Note

This operation is intended to be used with the search filter and to retrieve only the first few thousands; it's not intended for exhaustive retrieval.

This operation was introduced in Exchange Server 2013.

Using the GetSearchableMailboxes operation

The GetSearchableMailboxes operation gets information about searchable mailboxes. The following arguments can be passed in the request:

  • SearchFilter - Accepts a single email alias as an argument.

  • ExpandGroupMembership - Indicates whether the distribution group membership is expanded in the results returned in the response.

If the email alias set in the search filter is a distribution group and the distribution group membership is not expanded, the response will contain the mailbox information for the distribution group. If the email alias set in the search filter is a distribution group and the distribution group membership is expanded, the response will contain the mailbox information for each mailbox that is a member of the distribution group. If the search filter contains a single user's alias, the response will contain the mailbox information for the single user. The response will contain all searchable mailboxes if the GetSearchableMailboxes element is empty. This is the same as having an empty SearchFilter element and the ExpandGroupMembership element set to false.
