Example: Import Outlook 365 Events

This example demonstrates how to import events from all Outlook 365 calendars to the WinForms Scheduler control.

C#

using DevExpress.XtraScheduler.Microsoft365Calendar;

DXOutlook365Sync dxOutlook365Sync1;
public Form1() {
    InitializeComponent();
    dxOutlook365Sync1 = new DXOutlook365Sync(schedulerDataStorage1);
    dxOutlook365Sync1.InitComplete += DxOutlook365Sync1_InitComplete;
}
private async Task<bool> InitOutlook365Sync(DXOutlook365Sync outlook365sync) {
    // Initializes the 'dxOutlook365Sync1' component.
    string tenantId = "..."; // Enter your tenant (directory) ID.
    string clientId = "..."; // Enter your client (application) ID.
    InitStatus status = await outlook365sync.InitAsync(tenantId, clientId);
    // Returns false and displays a message box if the initialization of 'dxOutlook365Sync1' failed.
    if(status == InitStatus.Error) {
        XtraMessageBox.Show("Initialization of DXOutlook365Sync failed.", "Error", MessageBoxButtons.OK);
        return false;
    }
    return true;
}
private async void importEventsButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) {
    // Checks whether the initialization of 'dxOutlook365Sync1' failed.
    if(!await InitOutlook365Sync(dxOutlook365Sync1)) return;
    // Displays the wait form.
    splashScreenManager1.ShowWaitForm();
    // Imports Outlook 365 events to the Scheduler control.
    await dxOutlook365Sync1.ImportOutlookToSchedulerAsync(false);
    // Hides the wait form.
    splashScreenManager1.CloseWaitForm();
}
