Exchange EWS: class "DistinguishedFolderIdType" not defined

I'm using Exchange web services, trying to create a calendar entry in another user's mailbox. My account in EWS has rights to do this, and I can successfully use Impersonation to create thes appointment in any mailbox.

However, some examples I've seen of doing this, use an instance of DistinguishedFolderIdType, not impersonation, to set the mailbox for the appointment.

Problem is, this class simply isn't appearing in my installation of the EWS SDK for Visual Studio. It's v1.1, obtained here, but can't be found in Object Explorer. What am I missing?

The type DistinguishedFolderIdType is not part of the EWS Managed API.

If you do not use the EWS Managed API but generate your own SOAP client proxy manually from Visual Studio by adding a reference to the EWS .asmx service, the generated proxy will contain DistinguishedFolderIdType.

However, depending on what you are trying to accomplish, you should be able to do it using the classes provided på EWS Managed API 1.1 and you won't need DistinguishedFolderIdType.
