Note

The CreateFolderType class does not add managed folders to a mailbox.

For a sample that shows you how to implement managed folders, see Managed Folder Selector Sample.

Examples

The following example shows you how to create a set of folders in the Inbox. The example creates a regular folder, a contacts folder, and a tasks folder.

static void CreateFolder(ExchangeServiceBinding esb)
{
    // Identify the folders to create.
    FolderType folder1 = new FolderType();
    ContactsFolderType folder2 = new ContactsFolderType();
    TasksFolderType folder3 = new TasksFolderType();
    folder1.DisplayName = "MyNewRegularFolder";
    folder2.DisplayName = "MyNewContactsFolder";
    folder3.DisplayName = "MyNewTasksFolder";

    // Identify where the new folders are created.
    DistinguishedFolderIdType distFolder = new DistinguishedFolderIdType();
    distFolder.Id = DistinguishedFolderIdNameType.inbox;
    TargetFolderIdType targetID = new TargetFolderIdType();
    targetID.Item = distFolder;

    // Create the request.
    CreateFolderType createFolder = new CreateFolderType();
    createFolder.Folders = new BaseFolderType[] { folder1, folder2, folder3 };
    createFolder.ParentFolderId = targetID;

    try
    {
        // Send the request and get the response.
        CreateFolderResponseType response = esb.CreateFolder(createFolder);

        // Get the response messages.
        ResponseMessageType[] rmta = response.ResponseMessages.Items;

        foreach (ResponseMessageType responseMessage in rmta)
        {
            // Perform error checks in production code.
            FolderInfoResponseMessageType firmt = (responseMessage as FolderInfoResponseMessageType);
            BaseFolderType[] folders = firmt.Folders;

            foreach (BaseFolderType folder in folders)
            {
                if (folder is TasksFolderType)
                {
                    TasksFolderType tft = (folder as TasksFolderType);
                    //TODO: Handle the task folder.
                }

                else if (folder is CalendarFolderType)
                {
                    CalendarFolderType cft = (folder as CalendarFolderType);
                    // TODO: Handle the calendar folder.
                }

                else
                {
                    //TODO: Handle the SearchFolderType, ContactsFolderType, and FolderType folders.
                }
            }
        }
    }
    catch (Exception e)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
    }
}
