Help

I’m able to read current day messages, not working if i’m trying to read previous day mails

Filter used- “[ReceivedTime] = '”+now.AddDays(-1).ToShortDateString+“’”

error- Get outlook mail messages: Cannot parse condition. Error at “'03/20/2019’”.

Hi,

I think it should work:
“[ReceivedTime]= '”+now.AddDays(-1).ToShortDateString+“’”
Check is there any other thing which is making issue?

Or try this one as well:
“[Received] = '” + now.AddDays(-1).ToString(“D”) + '“”

Thanks,
Leeladhar

@Loka625,

After copy pasted below expression into Filter properties and delete single quotes and re type it again in the expression.

Based on your system time format try either of the one.

   “[ReceivedTime] > ‘”+ DateTime.Now.AddDays(-1).ToString(“dd-MM-yyy”)+"’" 

     or

   “[ReceivedTime] > ‘”+ DateTime.Now.AddDays(-1).ToString(“MM-dd-yyy”)+"’"
