Outlook connector - striping attachments from shared mailbox

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by DavyNix 71

Hi Guys,

Testing a flow on my own mailbox to strip attachments and save to network share.  All working well.  The Outlook 365 connector connects using my O365 credentials.

In a production environment it will need to monitor a shared mail box.  How does this work in terms of the connector?  Does the account that I use to connect the connector have to be a member of the shared mail box?  Any particular type of mailbox work better than others ...O365 group for example?

Basically looking for some advance / tips before I begin the process.  Thanks in advance.
