Is there a way to access the invitee/attendee list via the API?

I checked the API documentation, and searched the groups for "Invitee" and "Attendee" and didn't find anything, so I apologize if I've missed something obvious.

Thanks!

I'm looking to find the object types of the WhatId/WhoId fields of the Task and Event objects, so I can query these objects and get more information about them and perform certain automated tasks based on the type.

I found this tech article, which uses the first 3 digits as a marker, but the article also says that this may change at any time:

Is there a better way of getting the object types of WhatId/WhoId fields or querying them based on Id only (no type)?

Thanks!
