Get Email Message ID and Delete from Sent Box

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by hnguy71 347

Hi All. 

 

Doing a quick test to see if I can delete a sent email created by Flow from my mailbox.

The email is sent successfully but how do I obtain the sent email's message ID and delete it from my mailbox? (That way it doesn't clog up my sent messages).

 

Please let me know if it's possible. Thanks!

    It would look something like this:DeleteSentEmailFlow.PNG

    In the Get emails you could use the Search Query to grab the email by subject, or keywords. You should then be able to grab the ID for the Message Id box in the Delete Email step.
