Inventory Mail Folders and Export Messages

with Microsoft Office

Map the mailbox folder structure, then list and read messages for export.

  1. Enumerate the signed-in user's mail folders to establish the mailbox layout and make folder ids available for scoping the export filter.
  2. List messages matching the export filter, oldest first so repeated runs page forward through the mailbox deterministically.
  3. Retrieve the first matched message in full so the export captures the complete record rather than the truncated preview returned by the list.
What you'll need to have ready
  • messageFilter: OData $filter expression selecting messages to export, e.g. "receivedDateTime ge 2026-01-01T00:00:00Z" or a "parentFolderId eq '<id>'" expression built from the
