Fetching iCalUId for an appointment object using office js

Question

I'm trying to fetch iCalUId for a specific appointment object using office js (for an outlook add-in)

The only ids for an appointment object seems to be itemId which can also be converted to what Microsoft calls the Rest Identifier

is there any way to fetch the iCalUid as well?

Answer 1

Unfortunately we don't have an Office JS API to retrieve the iCalUId. You can, however, make a REST call to retrieve the item from the server and obtain the iCalUId from the JSON response. See this documentation for more details.
