About Microsoft Office 365 People Adapter Use Cases

The Microsoft Office 365 People Adapter can be used in scenarios such as the following.

You can create two integrations that include a REST Adapter on the trigger (inbound) side and an Microsoft Office 365 People Adapter on the invoke (outbound) side.

  • When configuring the Microsoft Office 365 People Adapter in one integration, you can select the List Contacts API operation to list all contacts in a default or specific Microsoft Office 365 People folder. Appropriate data mapping between the REST Adapter and the Microsoft Office 365 People Adapter is performed in the mapper. The REST Adapter sends a GET request to the Microsoft Office 365 People Adapter, which returns the display names, given names, and surnames for all the contacts in the folder.

  • When configuring the Microsoft Office 365 People Adapter in the other integration, you can select the Create Contact API operation to create new contacts in a default or specific Microsoft Office 365 People folder. Appropriate data mapping between the REST Adapter and the Microsoft Office 365 People Adapter is performed in the mapper. The REST Adapter sends a POST request to the Microsoft Office 365 People Adapter, which adds the new contact to the contact list and returns the results.

Note:

Oracle Integration offers a number of prebuilt integrations, known as recipes, that provide you with a head start in building your integrations.
