If I had a scenario that looks at messages within a folder in outlook and lets the say one day 1 add 3 emails in there. Wont it to run on those email and then next day add another 4. If the outlook module looks at all messages will it then again capture the email from day 1 and how they have to be removed out of the folder beforehand or will it only pass on day 2 the emails added on day 2?
The trigger is a “Watch” trigger. This means it won’t re-process items that have already been picked up previously.
Polling Triggers: Epoch Panel & Selecting Older Data
Go to the Epoch Panel, by right-clicking on the trigger module (polling triggers only), and select “Choose where to start” from the list of options in the context menu.
If you select “From now on”, the next time the scenario runs it will only return new data (or nothing if there is no new data).
You can also select other old data to re-run your scenario with next using the “Choose manually” option. This will then show you a list of previous historical items you can select to process the next time the scenario is triggered.

Hope this helps! Let me know if there are any further questions or issues.
