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.

Caution

The Outlook tasks API is deprecated and stopped returning data on August 20, 2022. Use the To Do API instead.

Use this API to add an attachment to an outlookTask. The attachment can be a file (of fileAttachment type) or Outlook item (itemAttachment type).

This API is available in the following national cloud deployments.

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

Permissions

Choose the permission or permissions marked as least privileged for this API. Use a higher privileged permission or permissions only if your app requires it. For details about delegated and application permissions, see Permission types. To learn more about these permissions, see the permissions reference.

Permission type	Least privileged permissions	Higher privileged permissions
Delegated (work or school account)	Tasks.ReadWrite	Not available.
Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Tasks.ReadWrite	Not available.
Application	Not supported.	Not supported.

HTTP request

POST /me/outlook/tasks/{id}/attachments
POST /users/{id|userPrincipalName}/outlook/tasks/{id}/attachments

Request headers

Name	Description
Authorization	Bearer {token}. Required. Learn more about authentication and authorization.
Content-Type	A string that represents the type of data in the body of an entity. Required.

Request body

In the request body, supply a JSON representation of attachment object.

Response

If successful, this method returns 201 Created response code and attachment object in the response body.

Examples

Example 1: Add file attachment

Request

The following example shows a request.

POST https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/me/outlook/tasks/AAMkADAAAANXbdnAAA=/attachments
Content-type: application/json

{
    "@odata.type": "#microsoft.graph.fileAttachment",
    "name": "menu.txt",
    "contentBytes": "bWFjIGFuZCBjaGVlc2UgdG9kYXk="
}


// Code snippets are only available for the latest version. Current version is 5.x

// Dependencies
using Microsoft.Graph.Beta.Models;

var requestBody = new FileAttachment
{
	OdataType = "#microsoft.graph.fileAttachment",
	Name = "menu.txt",
	ContentBytes = Convert.FromBase64String("bWFjIGFuZCBjaGVlc2UgdG9kYXk="),

var result = await graphClient.Me.Outlook.Tasks["{outlookTask-id}"].Attachments.PostAsync(requestBody);

Important

Microsoft Graph SDKs use the v1.0 version of the API by default, and do not support all the types, properties, and APIs available in the beta version. For details about accessing the beta API with the SDK, see Use the Microsoft Graph SDKs with the beta API.

For details about how to add the SDK to your project and create an authProvider instance, see the SDK documentation.
