Grab any users data from the MS Exchange server

Question

I want to receive a information about all users from the MS Exchange (Office 365). My favorite language is python. I want to know whether there are ways to get any user data (name, email, phone etc) from the MS Exchange server using python or another language.

I found this https://fedorahosted.org/suds/, but it's so slowly and no maintain.

Thanks
