The Get Message action loads one Outlook message by its Microsoft message ID. It requests the message twice so both plain-text and HTML body forms are available.

Inputs

Input	Type	Required	Description
Third-party account	Microsoft account	Yes	Account used to read the message.
Message ID	String	Yes	Microsoft ID of the message.

Outputs

Output	Type	Description
Sender Name	String	Sender display name, when present.
Sender Address	String	Sender email address, when present.
Subject	String	Message subject.
Plain Text	String	Message body requested as text.
HTML	String	Message body requested as HTML.
Attachments	List of files	Attachment output; currently returned empty.
Date/Time	Date	Time the message was received.
Is Read	Boolean	Current Outlook read state.
Conversation ID	String	Conversation containing the message.

The current Get Message node does not expose attachment downloading, so Attachments is an empty list. The New Email trigger downloads attachments, and Get Conversation can download them when enabled.

Example

Connect a stored Outlook message ID to Get Message. The action returns the message’s Conversation ID, which you can pass to Get Conversation when you need the rest of the conversation.
