What is the maximum elapse time limit for using the Live SDK API: Reading calendar events

Question

I use the Reading calendar events  API in the Live SDK 5.1.

The following is the code fragment reading events from a hotmail calendar:

readEvents.GetAsync((LoadState("CalendarID") + "/events?start_time=" + start + "&end_time=" + end));

Are there any limit in the API to return events when (start & end elapse time for 1 months, 1 years , 2 years, .. ,10 years)?

Thanks

Answer 1

Without any parameters specified you'll only get events occurring within the next 30 days.  

When you do specify start/end times, there seems to be a limit of several months (if I create a new event on 5/27/2042, then do something like "/me/events?start_time=2040-04-01T00:00:00Z&end_time=2042-08-03T00:00:00Z", I only see events from 4/2040 to about 7/2040).

Hi JOshiro,

I perform a test sending a events reading search from 2011-12-28 to 2012-04-28

"/me/events?start_time=2011-12-28T00:00:00Z&end_time=2012-04-28T00:00:00Z"

Only events up to "2012-04-26" are retrieved. The limit seems to be 120 days.

So, what is the items limit for a single search?

Thanks

This seems to be changed now, i can not get any events that are more than one week in the future.

/me/events?start_time=2012-08-23T00:00:00Z&end_time=2012-08-25T00:00:00Z

this returns all events from now to one week in the future, but ignores the one on the 24th.

/me/events?start_time=2012-08-23T00:00:00Z&end_time=2012-08-25T00:00:00Z

this returns all events from now to one week in the future, but ignores the one on the 24th.

Today, I cannot download pat events.

This is same problem.

Is this Live Connect API bug?
