Save Shared Mailbox Emails to SharePoint Document Library

In this demo you will learn how to save shared mailbox emails to SharePoint document library along with metadata properties. First I will create a shared mail box, then a document library to host the email (.eml) messages including the metadata properties, and finally a Power Automate flow to route emails from shared mailbox to SharePoint document library and will also apply the meta data properties.

    Thank you for this tutorial, it was very helpful! Will you please provide the steps to move emails that already exist in a shared email box to SharePoint? In other words, these emails are in a folder in a shared Outlook email box and they need to be transferred to the document library on SharePoint, but I'm not sure how to move them using Power Automate. Your help is appreciated!

    Hi, thank you for the ideas, how would you do the same flow for a Group Email address? I have found the trigger called - When a new email arrives to a group, however it will not produce any fields where you can set up the Message Id in the Export email (V2) step. It only has one field where you can chose your Group ID.

    Hi. Thanks a lot for this video. Short question: my usecase is a bit different. I would need to save mails (which have been flagged somehow) from 4 private company mailboxes to sharepoint. Is this possible? For clarification, i have the power automate license, and want to setup the automation process for them (they dont have power automate). Or do i have to convert those 4 private mailboxes to be a shared mailbox? Thanks in advance.

  • @KeaPointTechTips

    It will be better if you write a rule on those 4 mailboxes to forward the flagged emails to a shared mailbox and then use power automate flow to retrieve email from shared mailbox and process them. This way the solution will be future proofed as well as you can add more inboxes going forward.

    The better way would be to create metadata columns in SharePoint library to capture sender details, e.g. email address. When you route emails to the SharePoint library, at that point you can also fill in the SharePoint document metadata properties via flow.

    Sorry this is out of date material. Now you must enter the 'Original Mailbox Address' in the Export email inputs. Also, using subject line for filename in Sharepoint is nearly impossible do to so many unsupported characters that cannot be in a file name, so something else more clever is required.
