Hi all, I am trying to save the Outlook email using the save email action but it saves it as .msg/outlook item format. I want to save the Outlook email in HTML format but there is no format setting options available. Are there any actions available in the A360 that can use to save the email in HTML format?

Hi
As there is not direct approach for this from A360 at the moment, you can try with inline scripts like Python or VBS.

Can you share a python script for that purpose?

You can refer this post on Stackoverflow regarding the same requirement.
Hi
I think you should change your strategy a little. Rather then using the Python scripts or any other things, you can try below steps
- While looping through the mail in the mailbox, you can select message format as HTML.
- Assign the output the dictionary. The key will be “emailBody”.
- So, The dictionary variable with emailBody as the key will give you the content of each email in HTML format.
- This you can then use to log into the HTML file. Using “log text to file” action.
- In Log to file action you can mention the file path with extention as .html and pass the dictionary variable with key in “Enter text to log”.
- There you go. You’ll Have the email content as the HTML file.

I have already used this approach this HTML can get too much data like CSS and other selectors etc. so that’s why I need another approach.
Below is a sample how can i use that html and get the exact table with the structure.

Hi
I think you should change your strategy a little. Rather then using the Python scripts or any other things, you can try below steps
- While looping through the mail in the mailbox, you can select message format as HTML.
- Assign the output the dictionary. The key will be “emailBody”.
- So, The dictionary variable with emailBody as the key will give you the content of each email in HTML format.
- This you can then use to log into the HTML file. Using “log text to file” action.
- In Log to file action you can mention the file path with extention as .html and pass the dictionary variable with key in “Enter text to log”.
- There you go. You’ll Have the email content as the HTML file.
In that way, i am getting the complete HTML and css selector whole pattern so thats why it is difficult to handle that case.

I have attached a file that contains 3 emails HTML which I get by using your approach how can i get the tables from those HTML values?
Here you go.
Remember, You selected HTML. That means the file where you will be logging it needs to be of (.html) extension or format. and not (.txt). If you want text then select “Plain Text” in the loop action. I think you wanted HTML file for your emails as per the question. So this will be the best way Rather downloading as .eml or .msg and then changing it to .html
Hi tayyabimtiaz1,
To ensure efficient and precise responses to your inquiries, I recommend clearly stating the objective of your question. This approach will provide a solid reference point, enabling the developers to offer more targeted and relevant answers.
From what I understand, your goal is to extract a table from the body of an email, correct?
Instead, you can save the email content in HTML format with a .html extension.
Using the dictionary variable
Key is emailMessage
Use log to file to save the data in txt and covert it in .html.
After saving, you can easily access this HTML file using the 'Open Application' command in your development environment. For capturing the table data, the “Recorder Package”.
Let me know if this aligns with your requirements or if you need further assistance.
There is another way also if you want to try DLLs
You can use the Outlook DLL wrapper which will directly save the email in HTML file.
