How to determine if the current outlook user is the creator(organizer) of a given appointment

Hello,

Can you please recommend the best way to find out if an appointment item is opened(in an inspector) or edited(eg drag& drop) by the appointment creator? I did not find a reliable way. I have a routine executed when the creator of the appointment edits it, and I want it to be prevented for when a participant/normal recipient edits it(accept or decline meeting seems to trigger an item changed event).

What I tried is getting the organizer recipient object, and compare the entry id with the entry id of the CurrentUser property, but they are not identical.

Did not find a reliable way to do this.

Thank you!

Regards from Romania(GMT+2),

Hello Horatiu,

For me, the organizer user is missing in the AppointmentItem.Recipients collection if the organizer user opens/selects the AppointmentItem.
