Has anyone worked with the new Microsoft Office 365 API? Not sure why they chose to name it what they did, but they call it Microsoft Graph. Do not be confused by the name. It is an office 365 API. Looks powerful if it does what they say.

I am wanting to revisit a process where we read the MS Office calendar entries of various users in our company and match them up to a CRM type application. Will probably eventually have it being a two way sync process and also pull entries out of the CRM and put them in the users calendar. I was hoping to avoid starting from scratch on it if someone has something they would share.
I have an older approach for doing this but it uses OCX controls and requires outlook to be installed and even active on the machine it is running on. Does not work very well as an automated task. Right now, we sync the calendars a couple times a day but with the new API, may be a way we could do it in a more real-time method.
Thanks everyone!
