Issue with renew operation in Microsoft Graph Webhook Java SDK

Question

Official Webhook documentation says that in the patch request only expirationDateTime is required to be set in subscription object to renew the subscription.

long with ExpirationDateTime, NotificationUrl is also required in new subscription object which is used in patch request to renew a subscription. When a patch request is made without a notificationUrl in subscription object, the patch request gets failed with message :

Subscription must contain either the 'expirationDateTime' or 'notificationUrl' property and its value.

Although the message states that the subscription must include either 'expirationDateTime' or 'notificationUrl', the patch request succeeds only when both fields are populated in the subscription object. This issue occurs when using the Java SDK for the request, but not when using curl or Postman.

Im not sure whether this issue exists in other languages. If this is not a bug in SDK side, it would be helpful if the solution to this issue is addressed in the documentation.

Answer 1

Hi @yusvanth Subramanian,

Thanks for reaching out to Microsoft!

As mentioned in the documentation,

The following table specifies the properties that can be updated.

The request body must include either expirationDateTime or notificationUrl for updating subscription.

Since it works fine with curl or postman, we suggest you approach GitHub repository for the Java SDK. This will bring it to the attention of the maintainers who can investigate and potentially fix the issue.

Microsoft Graph - Java SDK

As a temporary solution, ensure that both expirationDateTime and notificationUrl are included in your patch requests.

Hope this helps.
