Outlook read emails from multiple shared mailboxes set up in same outlook - Facing issue

Hi team,

We want to read emails from subfolders of different shared mailboxes set up in a bots outlook account.

So in my outlook, I have 1 local bot's email account and 5 more shared email boxes.

We want to read emails from all these 5 shared mailboxes one by one and that is where it fails. So as temporary we are moving emails from the 5 shared mailboxes to the local bot's account and then running our process.

Because using the outlook VBO we are able to read emails from a local bots email account.

Currently, we are not able to read from any of the 5 shared mailboxes as VBO throws "code not found/stage does not exist, etc errors" maybe because the bot is not able to read the shared mailbox.

We are using the latest outlook advanced VBO that we have from Blue Prism on DX.

We tried tweaking the code after reading different community threads but had no success.

Is there any solution to this?

Thanks Neeraj. Can you please upload ZIP because it does not allow to download?

If I save XML and load in BP it throws a parse error so if you can provide ZIP.

Hi Neeraj, Thanks for sharing the link.

I tried to compare VBO present in automate folder, the one that you provided and the one from DX all look the same.

I guess the VBO provided out of the box is the same on DX.

So I ended up with same error.
