Problems with mail retrieval using "Get outlook mail messages"

I am able to access my outlook mail account but I am unable to retrieve the subject line or the body of the mail. I am also unable to download attachments. If someone could attach a workflow for the same it would be very helpful for me.

Hi @KEdina

No so far i didn’t get any solution so far

Are you sure you are using the proper Outlook account within the activity?

@Gabriel_Tatu. We also can’t get the email body or from. However we can get the email subject . We already tried mail.Headers(“HTMLBody”), but this also returns blank. Can you please help

Hello @johnsonjos16 , @KEdina,

I’ve done a xaml file which will retrieve e-mail details like from, subject and Body .attaching the “GetOutlook.xaml” file. check this. hope it will solve your problem. if not let me know will try to help out.

Tip :- while iterating with For each, in the properties for TypeArgument select as “System.Net.Mail.MailMessages” .

Let me know it works out your issues.

Hi Pradeep thanks for your help. But its a security policy of our client that prevents us from getting email messages using the outlook activity. We managed to have a workaround using GetExchangeEmail activity. Once again many thanks for your help and interest in the topic
