How to save mail message from orchestrator queue

[Angell_Lim_A_Po_Tacstone (Angell Lim A Po)]

Hi,

I need to save a mailmessage to my local computer. These are already saved to an orchestrator queue, but the save mailmessage activity only works for mail objects.
How do I save these mail messages using the save mail message activity?

Hi @Angell_Lim_A_Po_Tacstone

These are already saved to an orchestrator queue

Can you please elaborate how this is done?
Is the MailMessage object being passed into the queue item through input collection?
In that case, you can access the QueueItem.SpecificContent("MailObjectName") to get the MailMessage object.
Then you should be able to use Save MailMessage activity on the retrieved object.

Hi ,

First we have to save the email in one location with .eml extension, and covert this .eml into base64 string variable, then push the string into “add queue item”

You can’t put complex datatypes into queues, so what you put into the queue probably isn’t a mailmessage. Open Orchestrator, go to the Queue, and view the transaction. Post a screenshot of it.
