What is your goal?
Retrieve emails from an outlook alias mail address using watch email module
What is the problem & what have you tried?
I can’t figure out how to connect my alias email address to the Watch Emails module.
I successfully connected the module to my primary domain and can read emails sent to that address, but I can’t access emails received on my alias email address.
Hello @Saad_Raznaoui,
Welcome to the community! I think the misconception is about how aliasses work. Alias emails don’t have a separate mailbox, they arrive in the same mailbox as your primary email address.
So did you connect the Make Watch Email module to your primary mailbox?
If you need to filter out messages that are sent to the alias, you can put a filter between this module and the next one where you filter on the ‘to’ address. That parameter should be in the payload.
Cheers,
Henk
Thank you for your quick reply. The issue is that I don’t see any emails sent to my alias address in the Watch Emails module at all. Emails sent to my primary address are detected correctly. ( and yes I connected my primary email to Make )
Be aware that the Watch Email module is a polling trigger, it wil only fetch new emails whenever the scenario is started since the last time the scenario is started.
Do you see the alias emails in Outlook itself? and is it a true alias or a shared mailbox? A shared mailbox is in reality a separate mailbox. Also check if you are watching the right folder.
