AI-generatedSummary
Retrieve multiple email messages from a Microsoft Outlook mailbox applying optional filters, selecting specific fields, and controlling the quantity of messages returned.
Inputs
- Return All — Choose whether to return all matching email messages or limit the number of results.
- Limit — If 'Return All' is false, specify the maximum number of messages to return (minimum 1, default 50).
- Output — Select the type of output: 'Simplified' for condensed message data, 'Raw' for full unprocessed data, or 'Select Included Fields' to specify particular message fields.
- Fields — When 'Select Included Fields' is chosen in Output, select which message fields to include, such as subject, sender, body preview, attachments flag, dates, and recipients.
- Filters — Apply filters to narrow down results including search terms within messages or specific filter query parameters like read status, attachment presence, sender, date ranges, and folder inclusion/exclusion.
- Options — Additional options including prefix for attachment binary data output fields and whether to download attachment files.
Output shape
a list of message objects matching the query parameters
The returned data shape varies based on the 'Output' parameter: simplified objects, raw API response objects, or objects containing only selected fields. If 'Return All' is set, all matching messages are returned (potentially large datasets and longer execution times). Attachments may be included and downloaded if specified in Options.
Examples
Example 1: Retrieve up to 20 unread messages from the Inbox folder including only the sender, subject, and received date.
Set 'Return All' to false, 'Limit' to 20, select 'Select Included Fields' for Output, then choose the fields 'sender', 'subject', and 'receivedDateTime'. Apply a Filter Query like 'isRead eq false' and limit folders to include Inbox.
