About this tag
Exchange Web Services (EWS) is a SOAP-based API that provides programmatic access to Exchange mailboxes, including mail, calendar, and contacts. Microsoft is enforcing a deprecation plan: starting March 1, 2026, EWS calls against mailboxes with frontline or kiosk licenses will be blocked with HTTP 403 errors, with a global EWS cutoff in October 2026.
