contact.Save not working properly || email adresses, phonenumbers etc. not saved

[davidLeimroth]

I'm trying to create a new Contact, but as far as I can tell, only names (GivenName, MiddleName, Surname) and CompanyName are sent to server.

Did I skip any step?

This might be somehow related to:

• Contact Update for Dictionaries not working #123
• Error on EmailMessage.ToRecipients.Add() #106

Underneath is a simplified version of my code

import * as ews from 'ews-javascript-api';

/* ... */
let exch = new ews.ExchangeService(exchVersion)
exch.Url = //...

let folderId = /* folder id of folder somewhere in public folders */

let c = {
      GivenName: 'Max',
      Surname: 'Mustermann',
      EmailAddress: 'max@mustermmann.muster',
      HomePhone: '000/1111111',
      Street: 'SampleStreet',
      City: 'SampleCity',
      PostalCode: '12345',
      CompanyName: 'SampleCompany'
    };

/* ... */

      let contact = new ews.Contact(exch);

      contact.PhoneNumbers[ews.PhoneNumberKey.HomePhone] = c.HomePhone;

      // Specify two email addresses.
      contact.EmailAddresses[ews.EmailAddressKey.EmailAddress1] = new ews.EmailAddress(c.EmailAddress);
      
      /* Does not work */
      // Email adresses as specified in https://github.com/gautamsi/ews-javascript-api/issues/123
      // let email = "new@email.com";
      // let emailEntry1 = new ews.EmailAddressEntry('EmailAddress1', new ews.EmailAddress('home', email));
      // contact.EmailAddresses._setItem(ews.EmailAddressKey.EmailAddress1, emailEntry1);

      contact.GivenName = c.GivenName;
      contact.MiddleName = c.MiddleName;
      contact.Surname = c.Surname;
      contact.CompanyName = c.CompanyName;

      /* Does't work */
      // Specify two IM addresses.
      contact.ImAddresses[ews.ImAddressKey.ImAddress1] = "brianIM1@contoso.com";
      contact.ImAddresses[ews.ImAddressKey.ImAddress2] = " brianIM2@contoso.com";

      // Specify the home address.
      let privateAdress = new ews.PhysicalAddressEntry();
      privateAdress.Street = c.Street;
      privateAdress.City = c.City;
      privateAdress.PostalCode = c.PostalCode;
      contact.PhysicalAddresses[ews.PhysicalAddressKey.Home] = privateAdress;

/* ... */

      contact.Save(folderId)

Console output

/* ... */
[ComplexProperty.Changed] OnChange events not fired due to circular calling, todo: fix needed
/* ... */

Edit 1:
Emailaddresses etc. are not added to contact.PropertyBag.addedProperties

The sent xml is the following:

<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:m="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/messages" xmlns:t="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/types">

        </t:Contact>

    </m:CreateItem>

</soap:Envelope>

It looks like there are a few things missing.

[gautamsi]

can you try installing dev version and provide feedback. npm i ews-javascript-api@next.

there is a caveat in removing/replacing these entries, see the blog for more details

[davidLeimroth]

Going to try it next weekend

[gautamsi]

@davidLeimroth were you able to test this?

[gautamsi]

should be fixed, please reopen if still facing issue.

I am having the same issue. My newly created test contact only holds values for display name and Id. Everything else is either empty or throws exception 'Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.ServiceObjectPropertyException'.

[gautamsi]

@chigivigi it seems like different issue, please open another issue for tracking release bugs.
