Hello,

We have some issues with tasks that have been created from a client (e.g Outlook) with HTML content.

These tasks can be retrieved in our app, but then it's not possible to update any field of the task (status, subject, dueDate, ...).

The following code reproduce the issue :

// Retrieve a task with HTML content created from Outlook
EWSTaskDTO ewsHtmlTask = connector.getFullTask(idVersion[0]);
ewsHtmlTask.setSubject("Edited subject");
                                  
// Fail
connector.updateTask(ewsHtmlTask);

It's also impossible to create a task with HTML content :

EWSTaskDTO ewsTask = new EWSTaskDTO();
ewsTask.setSubject("Test");
ewsTask.setBody("<html>my body</html>");

// Fail
String[] idVersion = connector.createTask(ewsTask);

Both issues produce the following error :

jec.ExchangeGeneralException: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><s:Envelope xmlns:s="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"><s:Body><s:Fault><faultcode xmlns:a="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/types">a:ErrorSchemaValidation</faultcode><faultstring xml:lang="en-US">The request failed schema validation: The element 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/types:Body' cannot contain child element 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/messages:html' because the parent element's content model is text only.</faultstring><detail><e:ResponseCode xmlns:e="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/errors">ErrorSchemaValidation</e:ResponseCode><e:Message xmlns:e="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/errors">The request failed schema validation.</e:Message><t:MessageXml xmlns:t="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/types"><t:LineNumber>1</t:LineNumber><t:LinePosition>614</t:LinePosition><t:Violation>The element 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/types:Body' cannot contain child element 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/services/2006/messages:html' because the parent element's content model is text only.</t:Violation></t:MessageXml></detail></s:Fault></s:Body></s:Envelope>

If the second issue is not important yet (it's possible to force our text editor to plain text for a first version), the first one is more critical : tasks created in HTML cannot be completed or modified in our apps.

Thank you,

Noé

Hi,

EWS support only text body for Tasks, so, no HTML option here.
