    Hi there!
     
    The issue with the search query is the format.  It uses this format:
     
    received:>2025-09-01
     
    But that won't solve your problem directly here.  The top limit on Get emails (v3) is 25.  You want to use Microsoft Graph and send an http request.

    @trice602 I tried received:>2025-09-01, but it's not working (with Top=10), I also tested receivedDateTime:>2025-09-01 not working either.
     
    And FYI, when I leave Search Query empty, I tested Top=150 and it worked.

    Hi @jwnz,
    Can you try this:
    If you want to include timestamp :

    If you need to only include Date: (if you want to see today's data, then make sure to use yestersday date)
