MessageID vs Internet Message ID

Posted on by BharathiRaja

Is it possible to retrieve an email using the Internet Message Id?

The Outlook 365 GetEmail activity is expecting only base64 message Id. But if we pass the Internet Message ID, it’s not working.

Any ideas on how to use the Internet MessageId to retrieve an email in PowerAutomate?

Sample MessageID: AAMkADVhYzUxZGNlLTFiZWUtNDUxNy04OTViLTkxOGU4MmNhMzU1ZQBGAAAAAAAG-7sUteXBTbOdWmKBIyIGBwB2ZjvBnueWRJLkbMWN0T93AAAIU8CnAAB2ZjvBnueWRJLkbMWN0T93AADsmvqiAAA=

Sample Internet Message ID:

Try to use a GRAPH request to retrieve an email by Internet Message ID.

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried that approach as well. MSGraph also needs the base64 message id only.

Please see the sample in this MSDN

Are you saying you cannot create a GRAPH request that retrieves a message(s) by Internet Message ID?
Could you show your request?

Yes Victor. When we pass the Internet Message ID, getting "ID is malformed". Same place when we provide the base64 value, email is getting retrieved fine

You have to execute a query to find a message ID by Internet Message ID.
Play a bit with GRAPH explorer.
