[Exchange-Online][EWS][Android]Is it possible to reach Exchange room resource mailbox through Office 365 API for Java/Android

Hi guys,

Title covers largely what I'm trying to do. I'm trying to create an app in Android Studio that uses the Office365 for Android API (https://github.com/OfficeDev/O365-Android-Start).
In this app i want to bind calander events to Locations that i create in Exchange online. Is this possible? If so, how? Have not been succesful in finding in any information on the issue so far.

At the moment when the user wants to create an event, the user just types in the "location", but this is just a string and not bound to anything. I would prefer to get a dropdown of all the room resources I have on Exchange and that this will make that the location. This to prevent 2 seperate meetings happening in the same room at the same time.

(Was sent here from the O365-forums, so sorry if this is a misplaced post)

Thanks for any and all help.

What do you mean by getting a dropdown? In your app, or in Outlook?

A dropdown in my app, populated with room resources which are created in Exchange Online.

So then I'm guessing you want to be able to retrieve the list of resources in the address book? If the Exchange admins have configured room lists, you could use those: https://msdn.microsoft.com/EN-US/library/office/dn643730(v=exchg.150).aspx.
