Demonstrates how to list the messages in a particular Outlook mailbox folder.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.67 or greater.

Go Package for Windows, MacOS, Linux, Alpine Linux, Solaris

    // This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    http := chilkat.NewHttp()

    // Use your previously obtained access token here:
    // See the following examples for getting an access token:
    //    Get Microsoft Graph OAuth2 Access Token (Azure AD v2.0 Endpoint).
    //    Get Microsoft Graph OAuth2 Access Token (Azure AD Endpoint).
    //    Refresh Access Token (Azure AD v2.0 Endpoint).
    //    Refresh Access Token (Azure AD Endpoint).

    http.SetAuthToken("MICROSOFT_GRAPH_ACCESS_TOKEN")

    // Sends:  GET /users/{user_id | userPrincipalName}/mailFolders/{folder_id}/messages
    // Note: It is also possible to use the literal string "me" for the current logged-on user.
    // For example: GET /me/mailFolders/{folder_id}/messages

    // In this example, we'd like to get the messages in the folder "/Inbox/abc",
    // but we must specify the corresponding folder_id.  The best way to do this is to create
    // a local map of folderPaths-to-folderIds.
    // This example does it:  Create Outlook Folder Map)
