Hi,

I am trying to get an attachment from an Office 365 email and save it to a local robot directory. I have tried from tutorials online but haven’t been successful. Does anyone have a example they would be willing to share? I have used the 365 activity to send mail but all I need to do is look for a unread email, and retrieve the attachment. It sounded straight forward but has not worked. Thanks.

Hi,
yes it is feasible.
Let’s say you have a variable “att” of type Attachment, then you can do like this:

attStream = att.ContentStream() //attStream is of type Stream
ReDim attBytes(CInt(attStream.Length)) //attBytes is a Byte Array
attStream.Read(attBytes,0,CInt(attStream.Length))
System.IO.File.WriteAllBytes(Path.Combine(“documents”,att.Name),attBytes)
