Multiple Outlook Profiles using Outlook VBO

[pranavred]

Will there be any support on reading emails from multiple Outlook profiles using the latest Outlook VBO. As of now, Outlook VBO could only read the default Outlook profile.

Hi Ami, the link you have provided is broken, could you please provide the complete link? I have a requirement to work on shared outlook inbox, please share if you have any further information on that as well. There is a VBO called MS Outlook - Shared Folder, not sure how can I use that, so exploring that. Thank you!

Hi @AmiBarrett, I'm also trying to achieve the same using the updated VBO from GitHub.

But I'm getting error.

I have enabled folder visibility. Is Programmatic Access mandatory to read email from shared mailbox?

Yes, Programmatic Access is mandatory to interface with Outlook in general.

Hi Amy,

Thanks for this answer.

if you are still getting updates from this post then I have a question,

"I am trying to read emails from a bot(profile name) profile in outlook and not from the default profile but I am not able to use the above code without launching the outlook application with profile name as a parameter". Is this how it is supposed to be and if not what is the workaround/solution?

Thanks a lot!
