  • The root of the Cisco Unity Connection Messaging Interface (CUMI) API is the Mailbox resource that is associated with each user.
  • Doing a GET on the Mailbox returns properties of the mailbox 

    • GET /vmrest/mailbox

  • Doing a GET on the Folders returns the fixed list of folders:

    • GET /vmrest/mailbox/folders

  • A Folder consists of a small set of properties (DisplayName and MessageCount) and a collection of Messages.
    • Doing a GET on a Folder returns a small folder resource object and a reference to its list of Messages:

    • <Folder> 
      <DisplayName></DisplayName>
      <MessageCount></MessageCount>
      </Folder>
      

  • Doing a GET on <folder>/messages returns a message list:

    • <Messages>
      <Message> 
      ... 
      </Message> 
      <Message> 
      ... 
      </Message> 
      ...</Messages>
