Write a flow to list all of the emails in your Outlook Inbox

This exercise is provided to allow potential course delegates to choose the correct Wise Owl Microsoft training course, and may not be reproduced in whole or in part in any format without the prior written consent of Wise Owl.

Create a flow called Exercise NN - list Inbox emails which will (as the name suggests) list out all of the emails in your Inbox in Outlook 365:

What your flow could look like.

Be sure to change the parameters of your Get emails action to list out all of the emails in your Inbox, rather than just fetching the unread messages (which is the default). Note that Microsoft have throttled this to get only the first 10 messages, although you can increase this limit to a maximum of 25.

Add a Create HTML table action to pick out the subject and from address for each email, and present these as an HTML table. Here's what the parameters of this action should look like:

You'll need to set the Columns parameter to pick up on the two dynamic content fields shown.

In a final self-referential twist, email this table to yourself:

Your final action should email the table to yourself, perhaps with a brief bit of explanatory text.

Try running your flow a couple of times. Each time it should send an email with one more row in the table!

This person has already run this flow twice (each time you run it there will be one more email in your Inbox). They also urgently need to get a friendship group, and perhaps some therapy too.

Your task is now complete!
