Outlook input office 365 tool

[bubblyjai1982]

Hi All

I receive a report on daily basis - table format in body of email and it is stored in particular folder of outlook.

Would like to configure Alteryx with outlook so that it can extract the data directly without manual intervention.

Could you please advise how I can configure Outlook input tool and extract the data in Alteryx.

Thanks

Have you downloaded the Outlook Inout tool and configured it?

once you do, you can connect to the folder and see what the output looks like

Yes, I have Outlook Input tool - Please let me the steps or an example how to configure.

Also can you please tell the difference between "Outlook Input Tool" and "Outlook Input Office 365 Tool"

Configuration options are here: https://help.alteryx.com/current/en/designer/tools/connectors/outlook-365-input-tool.html

the other one seems to be a community created macro!

Can anyone tell me what is the difference between "Outlook Input Tool" and "Outlook Input Office 365 Tool"

I am not sure what the question is. One is community built as mentioned... the other is an Alteryx connector. You can test both if you want, but one has actual documentation/support versus the other
