[DEPRECATED] Microsoft Graph SDK for Android

Microsoft Graph SDK for Android (preview)

This SDK is deprecated. Please see our latest Microsoft Graph SDK for Android.

Microsoft Graph (previously called Office 365 unified API) exposes multiple APIs from Microsoft cloud services through a single REST API endpoint (Microsoft Graph API endpoint v1.0). Using Microsoft Graph, you can turn formerly difficult or complex queries into simple navigations.

These libraries are generated from API metadata using Vipr and Vipr-T4TemplateWriter and use a shared client stack provided by orc-for-android.

For information on release cadence and how to access built binaries before release, see Releases.

Quick Start

To use these libraries in your project, follow these general steps, as described further below:

1. Configure dependencies in build.gradle.
2. Set up authentication.
3. Construct an API client.
4. Call methods to make REST calls and receive results.

Setup

1. From the Android Studio splash screen, click "Start a new Android Studio project" and set a name for your application.

2. Select "Phone and Tablet" and set Minimum SDK as API 18, then click Next. Choose "Blank Activity", then click Next. The defaults are fine for the activity name, so click Finish.

3. Open the Project view in the left-hand column if it's not open. From the list of Gradle Scripts, find the one title "build.gradle (Module: app)" and double-click to open it.

4. In the dependencies closure, add the following dependencies to the compile configuration:

   compile ('com.microsoft.services:graph-services:0.8.0'){
       transitive = true
   }

   You may want to click the "Sync Project with Gradle Files" button in the toolbar. This will download the dependencies so Android Studio can assist in coding with them.

5. Find AndroidManifest.xml and add the following line within the manifest section:

   <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

Authenticate and construct client

With your project prepared, the next step is to initialize the dependency manager and an API client.

❗ If you haven't yet registered your app in Azure AD, you'll need to do so before completing this step by following these instructions.

1. From the Project view in Android Studio, find app/src/main/res/values, right-click it, and choose New > Values resource file. Name your file adal_settings.

2. Fill in the file with values from your app registration, as in the following example. Be sure to paste in your app registration values for the Client ID and Redirect URL.

   <string name="AADAuthority">https://login.windows.net/common</string>
   <string name="AADResourceId">https://graph.microsoft.com</string>
   <string name="AADClientId">Paste your Client ID HERE</string>
   <string name="AADRedirectUrl">Paste your Redirect URI HERE</string>

3. Add an id to the "Hello World" TextView. Open app/src/main/res/layout/activity_main.xml. Use the following tag.

   android:id="@+id/messages"

4. Set up the DependencyResolver

   Open the MainActivity class and add the following imports:

   import android.content.Intent;
   import android.util.Log;
   import android.widget.TextView;
   import com.google.common.util.concurrent.FutureCallback;
   import com.google.common.util.concurrent.Futures;
   import com.google.common.util.concurrent.SettableFuture;
   import com.microsoft.aad.adal.AuthenticationCallback;
   import com.microsoft.aad.adal.AuthenticationContext;
   import com.microsoft.aad.adal.AuthenticationResult;
   import com.microsoft.aad.adal.PromptBehavior;
   import com.microsoft.services.graph.Message;
   import com.microsoft.services.graph.fetchers.GraphServiceClient;
   import com.microsoft.services.orc.auth.AuthenticationCredentials;
   import com.microsoft.services.orc.core.DependencyResolver;
   import com.microsoft.services.orc.http.Credentials;
   import com.microsoft.services.orc.http.impl.OAuthCredentials;
   import com.microsoft.services.orc.http.impl.OkHttpTransport;
   import com.microsoft.services.orc.serialization.impl.GsonSerializer;
   import java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException;
   import java.util.List;
   import javax.crypto.NoSuchPaddingException;
   import static com.microsoft.aad.adal.AuthenticationResult.AuthenticationStatus;

   Then, add these instance fields to the MainActivity class:

   private AuthenticationContext mAuthContext;
   private DependencyResolver mResolver;
   private TextView messagesTextView;

   Add the following method to the MainActivity class. The logon() method constructs and initializes ADAL's AuthenticationContext, carries out interactive logon, and constructs the DependencyResolver using the ready-to-use AuthenticationContext.

   protected SettableFuture<Boolean> logon() {
       final SettableFuture<Boolean> result = SettableFuture.create();
   
       try {
           mAuthContext = new AuthenticationContext(this, getString(R.string.AADAuthority), true);
           mAuthContext.acquireToken(
                   this,
                   getString(R.string.AADResourceId),
                   getString(R.string.AADClientId),
                   getString(R.string.AADRedirectUrl),
                   PromptBehavior.Auto,
                   new AuthenticationCallback<AuthenticationResult>() {
   
                       @Override
                       public void onSuccess(final AuthenticationResult authenticationResult) {
                           if (authenticationResult != null
                                   && authenticationResult.getStatus() == AuthenticationStatus.Succeeded) {
                               mResolver = new DependencyResolver.Builder(
                                               new OkHttpTransport(), new GsonSerializer(),
                                               new AuthenticationCredentials() {
                                               @Override
                                               public Credentials getCredentials() {
                                                   return new OAuthCredentials(authenticationResult.getAccessToken());
                                               }
                                           }).build();
                               result.set(true);
                           }
                       }
   
                       @Override
                       public void onError(Exception e) {
                           result.setException(e);
                       }
   
                   });
       } catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException | NoSuchPaddingException e) {
           e.printStackTrace();
           result.setException(e);
       }
       return result;
   }

   You also must configure MainActivity to pass the AuthenticationResult back to the AuthenticationContext by adding this method to its class:

   @Override
   protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
       mAuthContext.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
   }

   From MainActivity.onCreate(), cache the messages TextView, then call logon() and hook up to its completion using the following code:

      messagesTextView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.messages);
      Futures.addCallback(logon(), new FutureCallback<Boolean>() {
           @Override
           public void onSuccess(Boolean result) {
               // TODO Initialize your GraphServiceClient here
               // TODO call methods with the client.
           }
   
           @Override
           public void onFailure(Throwable t) {
               Log.e("logon", t.getMessage());
           }
       });

5. Now, add the necessary code to create an API client.

   Add a private static variable with the Graph base URL:

   private static final String graphBaseUrl = "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0";

   Add a private instance variable for the client:

   private GraphServiceClient mClient;

   And finally complete the unimplemented onSuccess() callback by constructing a client and using it. We'll define the getMessages() method in the next step.

   @Override
   public void onSuccess(Boolean result) {
       // Initialize your GraphServiceClient here
       mClient = new GraphServiceClient(graphBaseUrl, mResolver);
       getMessages()
       // TODO call methods with the client.
   }

6. Create a new method to get all messages from your inbox using the GraphServiceClient.

   protected void getMessages() {
       Futures.addCallback(
               mClient.getMe()
                       .getMailFolders()
                       .getById("Inbox")
                       .getMessages()
                       .top(20)
                       .read(),
               new FutureCallback<List<Message>>() {
                   @Override
                   public void onSuccess(final List<Message> result) {
                       runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
                           @Override
                           public void run() {
                               messagesTextView.setText("Messages: " + result.size());
                           }
                       });
                   }
   
                   @Override
                   public void onFailure(final Throwable t) {
                       Log.e("getMessages", t.getMessage());
                   }
               });
   }

If successful, the number of retrieved messages from your inbox will be displayed in the TextView. :)
