How to use filter in get outlook mail activity

Hey there! I want to read the outlook mails, only those which the subject contains a keyword. I’ve gone through some topics suggesting Filter property in get outlook mail activity. Help me with the syntax here.
I’ve tried the below syntax, Kept ToLower because I don’t know the case capital or small
keyword in not a variable.

“[subject]”.ToLower.Contains"( ‘keyword’ )" = True

kindly try with this syntax
"@SQL=urn:schemas:httpmail:subject like ‘%keyword%’ "
in the filter property

Hi @Chaitanya_podilapu - Check the attached image. Only thing is the ForEach type should be system.net.mail.message.

Instead of item.body use item.subject

Thanks,

Hi @Chaitanya_podilapu,

Please write the below syntax in the Filter box -
“[Subject]=‘Keyword’”. Hope this will help you.

Hey @apurba2samanta I’ve tried that. But i’m getting only those mails whose subject equals to the keyword. But not whose subject containing that keyword.

Hi @Chaitanya_podilapu,

According to your 1st post, I thought that you want to process the mails with that specific subject line.

However what do you want to get?

Thanks & Regards,

@Palaniyappan yeah! working fine with this

@apurba2samanta I wanted to filter those mails if my keyword contains in that subject
for example: My keyword is Morning and if the Subject looks like Hi there! Good morning! How yoy doing?
Then this mail to be retrieved. This can be done by @AnandKumar26 suggestion as mentioned above but i don’t want to read the whole mail box, I just wanted to read those mails having my keyword
