Cannot create online meetings

[gbaso]

I'm trying to create a meeting with an autogenerated teams link. After searching for a bit (documentation was not very clear), including peeking at the outlook traffic while creating events with and without teams, it looks like I need to set the meeting as online (with Appointment#setIsOnlineMeeting), with onlineMeetingProvider set to Teams for Business. However, there is no option for setting the onlineMeetingProvider, and if I only set the online flag, I get an error on save ("Set action is invalid for property").

It seems to me that either:

• You can set the provider by some other way that I didn't found, and I'd argue that it's maybe kinda hidden and a convenience method on the Appointment class would be preferred
• You actually can't add a teams link with the EWS API, you need the Graph API for that, then maybe the online flag should not be writable
• I'm way off and it's done in a totally different way

Any insight?

Have you found a solution to this?

Moving to the Graph APIs solved the problem. I guess the EWS APIs are not maintained anymore.

Thanks, will have to do the same, hope my company will allow the OnlineMeetings.ReadWrite permission then.

BTW, yes it seems EWS is deprecated
