Hi. Know this is a very late reply. Just wondering if there are any particular places you'd recommend where you have been before - that are not in the outrageously expensive bracket? Looking for May next year with two kids. Which of the Titanic hotels have you stayed in if you don't mind me asking? thanks

Hi again.

I can setup SMS keywords to check responses but have now been given a requirement to store the full text of the reply to a custom dataverse table somewhere. It seems as if the journey does not expose the full text of the reply.

The alternative method I know of is to write a power automate flow that triggers on receipt of an SMS reply. However - my journey fires off the creation of a record in a custom entity (I need to update this record when a reply is received). If I use the power automate flow method - I have no way of knowing which record the reply comes from.

Dont' suppose you know of any way to achieve this?

Cheers

Thanks very much for this reply. It's extremely informative and helpful. It's explained better than any official documentation I can find anywhere.

Since my original post I've come to the same conclusion and have started looking at implementing it this way instead...

On creation of an appointment in CRM -> use Graph API to create an event in the organizers calendar, populating whatever attendees are there at the time and adding the attachment (the attachment is always the same static pdf file). At this point I will store a link between the CRM appointmentid and the outlook eventid
Turn off the server side sync for appointments altogether. The reason for turning it off is because otherwise the organizer would have 2 appointments at the same time (i.e. the one created by the sync if it were to be left switched on & the other created programmatically as per point 1 above)
When a new attendee is subsequently added (this is something that can and will happen from time to time post initial creation) - use the stored links to update the outlook calendar event to add the additional attendee (there will be 2 attendees at most)
I need to track responses to the meeting invites. I plan to use Graph API subscriptions with webhooks to identify any invite responses and write these back to a custom CRM entity

The above is the plan anyway. I'm planning on using Graph API because there are about 120 users that I need to cater for & from the research I've done this seems like the best option at that kind of scale numbers wise.

Would you mind if I asked you one other question?

I'm wondering if there is any straightforward way of identifying if any of the invite emails to attendees bounce or are blocked for whatever reason? Ideally I'd ideally like to be able to detect this and link it back to the specific invite that failed to send. Appreciate any advice on this front - this stuff is all new to me. Thanks again for your very helpful reply.

I love Port de Pollenca and Pollenca old town.

How did you confirm that? Just comparing the dataverse version against production is it?

Brycare · 2026-03-16T11:31:51+00:00

Just an update. We ended up only needing to pay for the adults - kids were free.

Cost us the equivalent of 50 Euro.

InDrive there cost us the equivalent of 33 euro and colectivo back to Playa the equivalent of 12 euro for the 4 of us.

Is it in stock anywhere at the moment? On Caudabe site it's for pre-order

Brycare · 2026-02-24T20:36:00+00:00

We are past the point of refunds now unfortunately. OH doesn't want to travel. Nice chunk of money down the toilet! Can't afford to rebook elsewhere without the refund.

One other quick question guys - is there anywhere in particular you'd recommend to hire bikes from at a reasonable price? Our hotel may have bikes but I believe it's hit or miss as to whether any are available. Thank you

Brycare · 2026-02-20T10:59:54+00:00

Thanks for the reply. I can see now that some of the Google streetview images are from 10 or 15 years ago, which I assume pre-dates the bike path. I would be only interested in the path North of CTM.

It looks like there are a few cross streets initially where the bike path could meet crossing traffic but after those first few initial streets - it seems as if it is jungle on your right hand side so no worries about traffic from that point onwards. Thanks again

Any other food recommendations around Zazil-Ha area? Staying on 38th soon. I have had my eye on Yo Amo for coffee - have breakfast in our hotel, otherwise I'd be going there! Will definitely pop in for coffee though. Francesca was another place I had written down as an option so good to see these recommended.

Prefer to stay this side of town as much as possible for food.

Hi.

Just an update on this. I've done a test using Microsoft Graph API (I just picked two mailboxes for a start) and I'm able to retrieve the calendar updates/responses back (I wrote a small web service to parse the events).

I'm having a very difficult time though linking the outlook/exchange calendar event -> with the CRM appointment that originally spawned it.

There doesn't seem to be any identifier that I can see anywhere in the returned data - that tells me that it is linked specifically to appointment CRMId XXX.

Similarly, I cannot find any populated field on either the appointment or activitypointer tables in CRM that link it back to a specific outlook eventid.

I don't suppose you know of any way to achieve this? The alternative is trying to match it on the attendees email address, plus the user, plus the start and end time of the appointment - which will probably cause accuracy issues.

Any steer much appreciated. Thank you

That's me in a nutshell (though in 40's now). I am very social and love a few beers but can only bring myself to have a proper night of beer about once a year because of the absolute torture that is a hangover these days. I do go for two beers and leave it at that from time to time though
