Email: How do i get the list of attachment names?


Hello everyone,

How do i get the list of attachment names from an email and perform subsequent actions only to emails with specific attachments?

Downloading attachments for every email and constructing a list causes a lot of unnecessary traffic, so it is to be avoided at all cost.

Thank you for the help.

For clarity, are you asking how to get a list of attachments from the Email Package?

Or are you developing a Package to get the list of attachments from a program or webservice?

Hey @michael.witton , 

In the initial phase of reading the email you can set different rules like sender, subject line and basis that you can save the attachments.
