Inheritance Hierarchy

System.Object
  ExchangeWebServices.BaseRequestType
    ExchangeWebServices.FindFolderType

Namespace:  ExchangeWebServices
Assembly:  EWS (in EWS.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
<SerializableAttribute> _
Public Class FindFolderType _
    Inherits BaseRequestType
'Usage
Dim instance As FindFolderType
[SerializableAttribute]
public class FindFolderType : BaseRequestType

Remarks

The FindFolder operation finds subfolders of an identified folder. The FindFolder operation returns only the first 512 bytes of any streamable property. For Unicode, the FindFolder operation returns the first 255 characters by using a null-terminated Unicode string. Use the GetFolder operation to get additional folder properties.

Restrictions on folder properties, but not item properties, are permitted. Sorting functionality is not available for FindFolder responses. Grouped queries are not available for FindFolder queries.

Examples

The following example shows a FindFolder query that returns the following results:

  1. A deep traversal search of the Inbox.

  2. All the properties that are defined for the Default FolderShape in a FindFolder operation.

  3. All folders that have a display name of SentOnlyToMe. The case does not have to match.

  4. A fractional paging scheme that returns at most a single folder that starts after the first folder.
