Setting Up the Connector

  1. Select Outlook Data Source Navigate to the Data Sources section of your project. Click Add data source and select Outlook from the available library.

  3. Select Folders for Ingestion In the input field, provide the name(s) of the email folders you wish to ingest.
    • To ingest a top-level folder (e.g., Inbox, Archive, or any other main folder), simply enter its name.
    • To ingest a subfolder, provide the full folder path starting from the root. For example, for a subfolder named β€œABC” under β€œInbox”, you would enter Inbox/ABC.
    πŸ’‘ Tip: Everything within the selected folder (including subfolders and their contents) will be ingested.
  4. Monitor Ingestion Status You can view the current ingestion status by clicking on the data source again. In the detailed list, you will see all ingested emails and their attachments organized in the respective folders. Emails and attachments will be listed as separate items in the data source.
