A Python package to interact with Exchange Web Services

**py-ews** is a cross platform python package to interact with both Exchange 2010 to 2019 on-premises and Exchange Online (Office 365).  This package will wrap all Exchange Web Service endpoints, but currently is focused on providing eDiscovery endpoints. 



**py-ews** has the following notable features in it's current release:

* Autodiscover support
* Delegation support
* Impersonation support
* Retrieve all mailboxes that can be searched based on credentials provided
* Search a list of (or single) mailboxes in your Exchange environment using all supported search attributes
* Delete email items from mailboxes in your Exchange environment
* Retrieve mailbox inbox rules for a specific account

Currently this package supports the following ServiceEndpoints:

* Autodiscover
* DeleteItem
* GetInboxRules
* GetSearchableMailboxes
* ResolveNames
* SearchMailboxes


## Installation

OS X & Linux:

```sh
pip install py-ews
```

Windows:

```sh
pip install py-ews
```

## Usage example

The first step in using **py-ews** is that you need to create a `UserConfiguration` object.  Think of this as all the connection information for Exchange Web Services.  An example of creating a `UserConfiguration object` using Office 365 `Autodiscover` is:

```python
from pyews import UserConfiguration

userconfig = UserConfiguration(
      'myaccount@company.com',
      'Password1234'
)
```


If you would like to use an alternative `Autodiscover` endpoint (or any alternative endpoint) then please provide one using the `endpoint` named parameter:

```python
from pyews import UserConfiguration

userconfig = UserConfiguration(
   'myaccount@company.com',
   'Password1234',
   endpoint='https://outlook.office365.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.svc'
)
```

For more information about creating a `UserConfiguration` object, please see the full documentation on our ReadTheDocs page.

Now that you have a `UserConfiguration` object, we can now use a `ServiceEndpoint`.  This example will demonstrate how you can identify which mailboxes you have access to by using the `GetSearchableMailboxes` EWS endpoint.

Once you have identified a list of mailbox reference ids, then you can begin searching all of those mailboxes by using the `SearchMailboxes` EWS endpoint.

The returned results will then be deleted (moved to Deleted Items folder) from Exchange using the `DeleteItem` EWS endpoint.

```python

from pyews import UserConfiguration

userconfig = UserConfiguration(
      'myaccount@company.com',
      'Password1234'
)

# get searchable mailboxes based on your accounts permissions
referenceid_list = []
for mailbox in GetSearchableMailboxes(userconfig).response:
      referenceid_list.append(mailbox['ReferenceId'])

# let's search all the referenceid_list items
messages_found = []
for search in SearchMailboxes('subject:account', userconfig, referenceid_list).response:
      messages_found.append(search['MessageId'])
      # we can print the results first if we want
      print(search['Subject'])
      print(search['MessageId'])
      print(search['Sender'])
      print(search['ToRecipients'])
      print(search['CreatedTime'])
      print(search['ReceivedTime'])
      #etc.

# if we wanted to now delete a specific message then we would call the DeleteItem 
# class like this but we can also pass in the entire messages_found list
deleted_message_response = DeleteItem(messages_found[2], userconfig).response

print(deleted_message_response)
```

The following is an example of the output returned when calling the above code:

```output

## Development setup

I have provided a [Dockerfile](Dockerfile) with all the dependencies and it is currently calling `bin\pyews_test.py`.  If you want to test new features, I recommend that you use this Dockerfile instead of a virtualenv.  You can call the following to build a new container, but keep the dependencies unless they have changed in your requirements.txt or any other changes to the Dockerfile.

```sh
docker build --force-rm -t pyews .
```

To run the container, use the following:

```sh
docker run pyews
```
