Hi Vignesh,
Have you had a chance to look into this document? Using the Microsft Office Connectors
I found this document from here: Pega Robotic Automation

Hi, Retrieve Email is failing. Seems like its not connecting to my Outlook. Is there any specific settings required.
Attached the watch variables and Automation screen shot. Appreciate your help to resolve this.

Your screenshot is hard to see. There are no specific setting required. If the folder you are connecting to has any "Unread" emails, then the method as you called it should be working. What do you mean by "it is not connecting to my Outlook"? How do you know that is the case?

Hi, Thanks for your reply. I have attached clear pictures.
Based on Automation Watches, I am assuming that its not connecting to my Outlook.I see proxy instance as NULL.
My assumption might be wrong, you inputs are appreciated.

Hi sasnt,
its great if i get some reference to understand how SMTP is used in Pega robotics.
please may i know if i can use SMTP on server side to trigger BOT on email received, and also i see emails in outlook at my machine(Client).
basically what i am looking for is,currently i am running BOT on my local machine where outlook is configured, now i want to move BOT to server or other machine, how will i trigger BOT in this case? does SMTP serves the purpose? or i need to have outlook client there? but i want to see my all emails in my machine still.

You will need to have the Outlook Component there configured to the same Inbox. SMTP is a component that allows you to send emails using the SMTP protocol. It cannot be used to receive emails.
