What it connects

Outlook Mail connects one Microsoft account's mailbox to Haruno. Find it in Settings ▸ Connectors, under the Mail button.

Outlook sits under the Mail button, next to Gmail. The demo names the card Outlook, and its one-line description is a placeholder.

What Haruno can do

  • Search your mail, for example for an invoice from one person.
  • Read one message.
  • Save one attachment to a file, so Haruno can open it.
  • Send a new email.
  • Reply in the same thread.
  • Move a message to Deleted Items. You can still get it back there.

Unlike Gmail, reading works with Haruno's own sign-in. Haruno cannot create or rename folders or labels.

How to connect

  1. Turn it on
    Open the card and turn on Enable.
  2. Sign in
    Choose Connect. Your browser opens Microsoft's sign-in. Sign in with the account whose mail Haruno may use, then come back to Haruno.

The card also has Enable background inbox checks. It lets Haruno notice new mail, so a rule can react to it (advanced view).

What needs your approval

Sending, replying and moving to Deleted Items each show an approval card. Choose Allow once or Allow for this session. A remembered approval for a mail covers only the same people. Searching and reading ask nothing.

A scheduled task or a hook has nobody to ask, so these steps are refused and the run says the step needed approval. In the advanced view you can set each action to On, Off or Confirm.
