appears now to be the de facto branding under which all MS office APIs are being grouped. Seems like an odd name to me but hey it's Microsoft. MS advice appears to be to drop the original API infomation sources.
Me? I'm still stuck trying to get the old interface to talk back.

Useless trivia for the day:
Yes, axes is also the plural of ax and axe, but it is also the plural of axis. Axes has the distinction of being the only word in English that is the plural of three different singular nouns.

Yeah, FB's API has been known as the "Graph API" pretty much since its inception, because it views each user's connections as a graph of connected nodes. (See https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/)

I own the box set and have yet to watch it. I bought the box set because I kept getting one or other Matrix movie on planes and falling asleep. One day...

The underlying mechanics of Office365 API at least seem to differ from what was in place when you wrote Office365Test.wo per the error messages I'm seeing. eg: 'resource' isn't needed, 'scope' is. Trying to seek information from the Graph API there seems to be a ton of documentation, though with MS' usual inconsistent level of detail. For instance despite it insisting on a valid scope there doesn't appear to be a list of all the possible values for scope. GRRRRR!
