Gmail API .NET: Get full message

问题

How do I get the full message and not just the metadata using gmail api?

I have a service account and I am able to retrieve a message but only in the metadata, raw and minimal formats. How do I retrieve the full message in the full format? The following code works fine

var request = service.Users.Messages.Get(userId, messageId);
request.Format = UsersResource.MessagesResource.GetRequest.FormatEnum.Metadata;
Message message = request.Execute();

However, when I omit the format (hence I use the default format which is FULL) or I change the format to UsersResource.MessagesResource.GetRequest.FormatEnum.Full I get the error: Metadata scope doesn't allow format FULL

I have included the following scopes:

https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.readonly, 
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.metadata,
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.modify,
https://mail.google.com/

How do I get the full message?

回答1:

I had to remove the scope for the metadata to be able to get the full message format.

The user from the SO post have the same error.

Try this out first.

Go to https://security.google.com/settings/security/permissions
Choose the app you are working with.
Click Remove > OK
Next time, just request exactly which permissions you need.

Another thing, try to use gmailMessage.payload.parts[0].body.dataand to decode it into readable text, do the following from the SO post:

import org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64;
import org.apache.commons.codec.binary.StringUtils;

System.out.println(StringUtils.newStringUtf8(Base64.decodeBase64(gmailMessage.payload.parts[0].body.data)));

You can also check this for further reference.

try something like this

    public String getMessage(string user_id, string message_id)
    {
         Message temp =service.Users.Messages.Get(user_id,message_id).Execute();
         var parts = temp.Payload.Parts;
         string s = "";
         foreach (var part in parts) {
                byte[] data = FromBase64ForUrlString(part.Body.Data);
                s += Encoding.UTF8.GetString(data);
         }
        return s
       }

    public static byte[] FromBase64ForUrlString(string base64ForUrlInput)
        {
            int padChars = (base64ForUrlInput.Length % 4) == 0 ? 0 : (4 - (base64ForUrlInput.Length % 4));
            StringBuilder result = new StringBuilder(base64ForUrlInput, base64ForUrlInput.Length + padChars);
            result.Append(String.Empty.PadRight(padChars, '='));
            result.Replace('-', '+');
            result.Replace('_', '/');
            return Convert.FromBase64String(result.ToString());
        }
