How to write retrieved email information into excel in particular column by power automate desktop?

    HI @lisha 

    Some details missing in your question (do you have Outlook? You're talking about one email or a list of emails? Which email information?), but basic structure is something as this:

    1) 'Launch Outlook'

    2) 'Retrieve email messages from Outlook' and filter emails with parameters. This will give you a %RetrievedEmails% list variable with several properties (you can see them in the Flow Variables panel: click in the variable and them 'More' in each item of the list 

    3) 'Launch Excel'

    4) 'Write to Excel worksheet':

    • In 'Value to write', you have to specify which email info you want to write. The syntax is %RetrievedEmail[item index as number].property%. For example, %RetrievedEmail[0].Subject will get the property Subject of the first email on list
    • Select the column and row (as numbers) you want to write to

    If you're dealing with an email list, you'll have to include loop in this basic flow.
