Get change notifications for Microsoft Teams virtual event updates

Change notifications in Microsoft Graph support subscriptions to virtual events. Change notifications provide a low-latency model by allowing you to maintain a webhook to Microsoft Teams virtual events. Virtual event subscriptions have a maximum period of a day. To extend the lifetime of a subscription, the subscription must be renewed before the expiry period. Alternatively, a user might decide to create a new subscription for the resource after the expiry of an existing subscription. For more information, see Use the Microsoft Graph API to get change notifications.

Subscribe to all events created in a tenant

You can specify subscriptions for all events of a unique app and tenant in the subscription payload by using the following syntax: solutions/virtualEvents/events. The subscription designates the notification URL to receive all event-created notifications in a tenant for virtual events. Only event-created notifications are supported for this subscription. A tenant can only have one type of subscription per application. User-delegated virtual event permissions are restricted from creating this type of subscription.

POST https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/subscriptions
Content-Type: application/json

{
  "changeType": "created",
  "notificationUrl": "https://webhook.contoso.com/api",
  "lifecycleNotificationUrl": "https://webhook.contoso.com/api",

}

Subscribe to all events created in a tenant with relevant organizers

You can subscribe to all events that include any members of a set of organizers or co-organizers by using the following resource: solutions/virtualEvents/events/getEventsFromOrganizers(organizerIds=['id1', 'id2']). These subscriptions receive any created notifications for all virtual events for a set of organizer or co-organizer IDs. This subscription is considered a subscription to all events created in a tenant. User-delegated virtual event permissions are restricted from creating this type of subscription.

Subscribe to updated events of a specific webinar

To receive updated notifications for a particular webinar, you need to create a subscription for that unique webinar by using the following resource: solutions/virtualEvents/webinars/{webinarId}.

An application can have only one subscription per webinar inside a tenant. A user-delegated token allows you to set up one subscription for receiving webinar update notifications within a tenant, but the subscription is only available for users who organized or co-organized webinars in the same tenant as the event host.

POST https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/subscriptions
Content-Type: application/json

{
  "changeType": "updated",
  "notificationUrl": "https://webhook.contoso.com/api",
  "lifecycleNotificationUrl": "https://webhook.contoso.com/api",

}
