Fail to message delta encounter error ErrorMailboxMoveInProgress

Question

I am using delta requset to track change on M365 mail folders:

 GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/mailFolders/{id}/messages/delta

But I encounter some error for some in-place archive mailfolder (rest are good).

{
    "error": {
        "code": "ErrorMailboxMoveInProgress",
        "message": "Mailbox move in progress. Try again later., The user and the mailbox are in different Active Directory sites.",
        "innerError": {
            "date": "2021-04-21T07:06:41",
            "request-id": "eea2a19f-7ab1-4039-9ecb-4d11fbaeba77",
            "client-request-id": "eea2a19f-7ab1-4039-9ecb-4d11fbaeba77"
        }
    }
}

I also check if there is any move progress on exchange online via powershell

Get-MoveRequest | Format-List

But I got nothing.

Will it be a temporary error for this mailbox?
Why it does show any on exchange online via powershell's cmd Get-MoveRequest?

thanks.

I don't have an answer for you, but did want to drop a line to say you're not alone. Overnight a lot of my automation started failing with the same error when working with EXO. — Windos, Apr 21 '21 at 20:23
For what it's worth, we started seeing the same error message last week as well for Azure Logic Apps using the Exchange connector to Export Emails. Worked with a Microsoft representative and determined there was a change to Exchange Online that requires us to supply the mailbox name along with the message id to retrieve correctly going forward. Given the error message and the timing, hope this can help others. — sgeddes, Apr 26 '21 at 14:05
MS seems to tanslate this into "code": "ErrorInvalidMailboxItemId". — 吳文喬, May 14 '21 at 08:27

This could be the answer: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/blogs/accessing-outlook-items-in-a-users-archived-shared-or-delegated-mailboxes-using-microsoft-graph/

note that such cross-mailbox API calls were never supported, and are less performant and more error-prone. (In-Place Archiving mailbox is an additional mailbox that's enabled for a user's primary mailbox.)

I believe the only alternative is using EWS.

see How to get In-Place archive mailbox in Exchange Online using Office 365 APIs

after wait for a long time, we decide to change implemetation as EWS to solve this issue, thanks for reply! — 吳文喬, Jun 03 '21 at 09:27
