We currently use a Visual Studio application to query our Outlook Server to check scheduling of our conference rooms. This was set up several years ago, and I want to re-investigate whether we can do this within a Gateway Script. Online, I see that there are Python libraries that seem to do what I want. Is there a way to do this in an Ignition Gateway Script? ---

As long as the python libraries you want to use need no ctypes access to DLLs, they should run in jython. You would add them to the user-libs/pylibs folder of your Ignition install. Give it a try and let us know how it turns out. ---

Well, I now see that the python libraries for working with Outlook did have compiled windows components that are obviously not compatible with Java.
