Here is an example of how to use the Office 365 API to download an XML file attachment:
using Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data;
// Set up your Office 365 API credentials
string clientId = "your_client_id";
string clientSecret = "your_client_secret";
string tenantId = "your_tenant_id";
// Create a new ExchangeService object
ExchangeService service = new ExchangeService(ExchangeVersion.Exchange2013);
// Set the credentials
service.Credentials = new WebCredentials(clientId, clientSecret, tenantId);
// Set the email ID
string emailId = "your_email_id";
// Get the email
EmailMessage email = EmailMessage.Bind(service, emailId);

Attachment attachment = email.Attachments.Find("your_attachment_name.xml");
// Download the XML file attachment
byte[] attachmentBytes = attachment.Load();
// Save the XML file attachment to a file
File.WriteAllBytes("path_to_save_file.xml", attachmentBytes);
Note: You need to replace the placeholders (your_client_id
, your_client_secret
, your_tenant_id
, your_email_id
, and your_attachment_name.xml
) with your actual Office 365 API credentials and email information.
