Hi Team,
I am getting this error when I am trying to move the email from one folder to another.
Can anyone help me with this what is the issue here.
Since you’re using the Move Outlook Mail Message activity and encountering this error, here are some specific troubleshooting steps:
- Check Message Existence: Make sure the email you want to move still exists in the source folder at the time of the
Moveaction. Sometimes emails can be archived, moved, or deleted by other processes or rules in Outlook. - Correct Folder Path: Verify the exact name of the source and destination folders. Sometimes subfolders or special folders (like “Inbox” vs. “inbox”) can cause issues due to case sensitivity or spacing differences. Ensure the full path of both folders is correctly specified.
- Unique Identifier: When retrieving the email, ensure you’re using a unique property (like the subject or date) to select the exact email you need to move. If there are multiple emails that match your criteria, this might lead to issues in identifying the correct one.
- Check Access Permissions: Confirm you have permission to move emails to the target folder, especially if it’s shared or not in your primary mailbox.
- Add a Delay: Insert a small delay between the retrieval and move actions. This can help if there are synchronization issues between Outlook and UiPath.

- are you trying to move to any shared folder?
- as per error the mail or email variable is not accessible…did you get it using get outlook mail messages only?
cheers
I am not using shared folder I have create a folder .
yes,but I am able to see the values of it in local panel
it might already have been moved
there are multiple reasons this might occur…first check the mail existance…if there are any auto move rules setup in outlook etc
