Hi vchandu,

  1. Check if ‘item’ datattype is set to messages correctly. On click of for each activity, on right side you will be able to see the datatype of item variable.

  2. Make sure, Get Outlook Message activity’s output is set to variable messages.

  3. Make sure message variable scope is correctly set.

If above three points are correct, issue will be fixed.

then, messages does not contain any mails . i.e, either the variable in get Outlook message is wrong or it is null/not instantiated.

Could you check if Get Outlook Mail Message activity is returning any output? if possible post a screenshot of getOutlook Mail message activity configuration
