Use Microsoft Graph to suggest contextual data to your app users: Write smarter apps that leverage intelligence Even though Outlook does not save messages in MIME format, apps can get the body of an Outlook message in MIME format, send Outlook messages in MIME format, attach S/MIME digital signatures, and encrypt message content in S/MIME.

Many customers use email clients that send and receive messages in MIME format. For example, an app can automatically move messages to another folder if their subject lines contain certain keywords, and assign categories and importance to make them easier for later follow-up. Apps can set up Inbox rules to promptly handle incoming messages and reduce email clutter. The rules API takes message organization to the next level. (Flagging is currently in preview in Microsoft Graph.) For example, an online training provider can color-code the emails, course events, and follow-up assignments for each course a user has enrolled in.Īdditionally, app users can change the importance of a message (or event or task), or flag a message for follow-up. More, that list is shared across Outlook messages,Īs well as events, contacts, tasks, and group posts, and opens up creative scenarios for app developers. Apps can access and define a user's master list of categories. Categories allow customers to tag messages to enhance organization and discovery. Outlook categories are differentiated by name and color. Apps can conveniently filter, search, or sort messages in specific folders or the user's entire mailbox. They like Outlook's flexible and intuitive approach that supports both flat and folder-based organizations. Microsoft Graph brings these features to app developers, enabling them to build customer workflows that optimize on discovery and improve efficiency and productivity:Ĭustomers organize their messages in different ways - some leave all messages in the Inbox and simply search for them, others file their messages in folders. Automate message organization and processingĬustomers like how Outlook helps them stay organized. You can write apps that focus on mail scenarios, orĬonnect to a wealth of other Outlook and non-Outlook relationships, resources, and intelligence, and realize scenarios supported by the Microsoft cloud. Using Microsoft Graph, you can integrate with Outlook by writing an app just once and reach more than hundreds of millions of consumers,Īnd tens of millions of organization customers who choose Outlook as their email client. Integrating with Outlook means tapping into the rich experience that customers love - consistent, intuitive experience for mail, contacts, calendar, available on all devices - mobile, web, and desktop.
