New Pluralsight Course - Office 365 APIs - Contacts

Pluralsight

This is the second in a series of courses I am publishing to the Pluralsight catalog on the the Microsoft Office 365 APIs. The Office 365 APIs are a collection of multiple endpoints for different types of data within the Office 365 platform. These endpoints include Contacts, Calendar, Mail and Files (for OneDrive).

Building off my first course in the series, Office 365 APIs - Overview, Authentication and the Discovery Service, in this course you will learn how you can use the Office 365 Contacts API to do all the typical CRUD-Q operations on your contacts in your Exchange Online mailbox in Office 365. You will also see how to work with contact folders within your mailbox. This demonstration heavy course will show you how to be productive with the Office 365 Contacts API using either the raw REST API or the .NET native SDKs. Be sure to checkout the predecessor to this course, “Office 365 APIs - Overview, Authentication and the Discovery Service”, as it demonstrates the authentication, Microsoft Entra ID application set up and Office 365 API Discovery Service, all things that apply to the Contacts API.

This course is now available to all Pluralsight subscribers: Office 365 APIs - Contacts
