Replacement for active x object



I am working on developing Outlook appointment. I have a requirement where
I have to create a file and download it . When I open that file it has to open in outlook and create meeting request pop up without using active x . Is there any api developed by Microsoft. Its better if the snippet is from java script



Right now I am able to open pop up with Meeting request in Outlook from the web browser. I am able to do this by enabling Active x controls But it works in IE only. Moreover active x will not be supported by Microsoft in near future.



Current code


var outlookAppObj = new ActiveXObject("Outlook.Application");

var objNS = outlookAppObj.GetNameSpace("MAPI");

var theMailItemObj

=outlookAppObj.CreateItem(0);

theMailItemObj.display();

Your code above creates and displays a regular message. You can achieve the same result using a mailto: link.


mailto:



For an appointment, create an ICS file and the user download it - Outlook will be happy to open it. the user can then click Save.


Prepare ics file as var finalAttachedData = "ATTACH;FMTTYE= application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document;ENCODING=BASE64;VALUE=BINARY;X-FILENAME=test.docx:"+base+"n";
var icsMSG = ["BEGIN:VCALENDARnVERSION:2.0nPRODID:-//Our Company//NONSGML v1.0//ENnBEGIN:VEVENTn" + finalAttachedData + "nUID:me@google.comnDTSTAMP:20120315T170000ZnATTENDEE;CN=My Self ;RSVP=TRUE:MAILTO:me@gmail.comnORGANIZER;CN=Me:MAILTO::testmailnDTSTART:" + Date.now() +"nDTEND:" + Date.now() +"nLOCATION:" + "hyd" + "nSUMMARY:Our Meeting OfficenEND:VEVENTnEND:VCALENDAR"];





base is the data read as byte array. stackoverflow.com/a/52060543/5588679
