Email Outlook Activities

Hi All,

I am automating emails for a business process. I am using outlook activities for the same, so for this is it necessary that outlook should be present on my PC/desktop ? If yes, which email protocols don’t require the outlook app on PC ?

Thanks :slight_smile:

Exchange, IMAP & Pop3

Hi @Piyush_Hemant - You will need only MAPI in case of outlook(outlook work on MAPI protocol). If you using O365 then you will need Appilcation ID from Azure portal which will require approval from azure admin.
You can read about MAPI in here.

Hi @Piyush_Hemant,

Prefer to use Send SMTP Mail Message activity to send the emails and Get IMAP Mail Messages activity to read the emails.
Or Else, You can use Send Exchange Mail Message activity to send the emails and Get Exchange Mail Messages activity to read the emails.

Thanks.!
