Get message

Namespace: microsoft.graph

Important

APIs under the /beta version in Microsoft Graph are subject to change. Use of these APIs in production applications is not supported. To determine whether an API is available in v1.0, use the Version selector.

Retrieve the properties and relationships of the message object.

For example, you can get a message and expand all the mention instances in the message. For an example, see Example 2.

You can use the $value parameter to get the MIME content of a message. For an example, see Example 5.

An app can get a message in another user's mail folder under two conditions:

Because the message resource supports extensions, you can also use the GET operation to get custom properties and extension data in a message instance.

This API is available in the following national cloud deployments.

Global service US Government L4 US Government L5 (DOD) China operated by 21Vianet

Permissions

One of the following permissions is required to call this API. To learn more, including how to choose permissions, see Permissions.

Permission type Permissions (from least to most privileged)
Delegated (work or school account) Mail.ReadBasic, Mail.Read
Delegated (personal Microsoft account) Mail.ReadBasic, Mail.Read
Application Mail.ReadBasic.All, Mail.Read

HTTP request

To get the specified message:

GET /me/messages/{id}
GET /users/{id | userPrincipalName}/messages/{id}
GET /me/mailFolders/{id}/messages/{id}
GET /users/{id | userPrincipalName}/mailFolders/{id}/messages/{id}

To get the MIME content of the specified message:

GET /me/messages/{id}/$value
GET /users/{id | userPrincipalName}/messages/{id}/$value
GET /me/mailFolders/{id}/messages/{id}/$value
GET /users/{id | userPrincipalName}/mailFolders/{id}/messages/{id}/$value

To get a message and expand all mentions in the message:

GET /me/messages/{id}?$expand=mentions
GET /users/{id | userPrincipalName}/messages/{id}?$expand=mentions
GET /me/mailFolders/{id}/messages/{id}?$expand=mentions
GET /users/{id | userPrincipalName}/mailFolders/{id}/messages/{id}?$expand=mentions

Optional query parameters

This method supports the OData query parameters to help customize the response.

Use the $value parameter to get the MIME content of a message.

Use the $expand query parameter on the mentions navigation property to get a message with the details of each mention in the message expanded.

Request headers

Name Type Description
Authorization string Bearer {token}. Required. Learn more about authentication and authorization.
Prefer: outlook.body-content-type string The format of the body and uniqueBody properties to be returned in. Values can be "text" or "html". A Preference-Applied header is returned as confirmation if this Prefer header is specified. If the header is not specified, the body and uniqueBody properties are returned in HTML format. Optional.

Request body

Don't supply a request body for this method.

Response

If successful, this method returns a 200 OK response code and message object in the response body.

Specifying the $value parameter returns the message content in MIME format, and not a message resource.
