    • Mail.Read
    • Mail.ReadBasic

To create or change an Outlook source connector, see the following examples.

Replace the preceding placeholders as follows:

  • <client-id> (required) - The application (client) ID of the Microsoft Entra ID app registration that has access to the Outlook account.
  • <authority-url> - The authentication token provider URL for the Entra ID app registration. The default is https://login.microsoftonline.com if not otherwise specified.
  • <tenant> (required) - The directory (tenant) ID of the Entra ID app registration.
  • <client-cred> (required) - The client secret for the Entra ID app registration.
  • <user-email> (required) - The user’s email address for the target Outlook account.
  • outlook_folders is a required array of strings, with each <folder-name> specifying the name of a folder to access, for example: ["Inbox","Sent"]. Do not specify any subfolder names.
  • For recursive (source connector only), set to true to access any and all subfolders within each of the specified top-level folders. The default is false if not otherwise specified.

To change a connector, replace <connector-id> with the source connector’s unique ID. To get this ID, see List source connectors.
