This article provides the properties and schema for Microsoft Outlook events that the Microsoft Graph API publishes. For an introduction to event schemas, see CloudEvents schema.
| Event name | Description |
|---|---|
| Microsoft.Graph.EventCreated | Triggered when an event in Outlook is created. |
| Microsoft.Graph.EventUpdated | Triggered when an event in Outlook is updated. |
| Microsoft.Graph.EventDeleted | Triggered when an event in Outlook is deleted. |
| Microsoft.Graph.ContactCreated | Triggered when a contact in Outlook is created. |
| Microsoft.Graph.ContactUpdated | Triggered when a contact in Outlook is updated. |
| Microsoft.Graph.ContactDeleted | Triggered when a contact in Outlook is deleted. |
| Microsoft.Graph.MessageCreated | Triggered when a message in Outlook is created. |
| Microsoft.Graph.MessageUpdated | Triggered when a message in Outlook is updated. |
| Microsoft.Graph.MessageDeleted | Triggered when a message in Outlook is deleted. |
When an event is triggered, the Event Grid service sends data about that event to subscribing destinations. This section contains an example of what that data would look like for each Outlook event.
