[DEPRECATED] Outlook People REST API reference

  • Статья

This topic is redirecting to Use the People API in Microsoft Graph to get information about the people most relevant to you.

Note

This documentation covers the People API. Preview features are subject to change prior to finalization, and may break code that uses them. Because of this, in general you should use only a production version of an API in your production code. If available, v2.0 is currently the preferred version.

The Outlook People API helps you get information about the people that are important to you from across mail, contacts, and social networks. You can combine information about a person from many sources in a single request to a single endpoint. You can use the API to access information secured by Azure Active Directory in Office 365. It also provides acces to Microsoft accounts in these domains: office.com, hotmail.com, live.com and office365.com.

Note

This article applies to all supported domains in the same way. For simplicity, the rest of this article uses Outlook.office.com to refer to accounts in all domains.

All People API operations

The People API returns relevent person entities with each request. A person aggregates information from across mail, contacts and social networks. The results are ordered by their relevance, which is determined by the criteria specified in the request and ranked based on multiple communication, collaboration and business relationships.

Use the People REST API

Authentication

Like other Outlook REST API, for every request to the People API, you include a valid access token. You must register and identify your app and obtain the appropriate authorization to get an access token.

You can find out more about some streamlined registration and authorization options for you.

Supported REST actions and endpoints

To interact with the People REST API, you send HTTP GET requests to a supported endpoint.

The path URL resource names and query parameters are case insensitive; however, values you assign, entity IDs, and base64-encoded values are case sensitive.

All People REST API requests use the following root URL format.

https://outlook.office.com/api/{version}/{user context}

Version of the API

{version} represents the version of the REST API in the specified root URL. The only version that you can specify is beta.

beta: This version is in preview and should not be used in production code. An example URL is https://outlook.office.com/api/beta/me/people. This version includes the latest APIs in GA, as well as additional API sets that are in preview and that may change prior to finalization.

Target user

{user_context} is the currently signed-in user; the People API performs all requests on behalf of the current user. You can specify the user context in REST requests in the following way.

  • With the me shortcut: /api/{version}/me. The root URL becomes https://outlook.office.com/api/{version}/me.

In server responses, the user context is identified in this format: users/{AAD_userId@AAD_tenantId}.

Browse people

Required scope

The following request gets the people most relevant to the user, based on communication, collaboration, and business relationships. By default, each response returns 10 records, but you can change this using the $top parameter.

https://outlook.office.com/api/beta/me/people/

The response to the request is the following.

Sort the response

By default the people in the response are sorted by their relevance to your query. You can change the order of the people in the response using the $orderby parameter. This query selects the people most relevant to you, sorts them by their display name, and then returns the first 10 people on the sorted list.
