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.

Create an online meeting on behalf of a user by using the object ID (OID) in the user token (delegated permission) or request path (application permission).

Tip

The meeting does not show up on the user's calendar.

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)	OnlineMeetings.ReadWrite
Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Not supported.
Application	OnlineMeetings.ReadWrite.All*

Important

* Administrators must create an application access policy and grant it to a user, authorizing the app configured in the policy to create an online meeting on behalf of that user (user ID specified in the request path).

HTTP request

Request when using a delegated token:

POST /me/onlineMeetings

Request when using an application token:

POST /users/{userId}/onlineMeetings

Note

userId is the object ID of a user in Azure user management portal. See more details in application access policy.

Request headers

Name	Description
Authorization	Bearer {token}. Required.
Content-type	application/json. Required.
Accept-Language	Language. Optional.

If the request contains an Accept-Language HTTP header, the content of joinInformation will be in the language and locale variant specified in the Accept-Language header. The default content will be in English.

Request body

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

Response

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

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.

Read the SDK documentation for details about how to add the SDK to your project and create an authProvider instance.
