Hi Team,

We have a requirement to get email links from office 365 email. We need to consume graph API and get URL link so we can download data using Web activity. Can Microsoft expert suggest this will be possible with Graph API.

If yes, what process do we follow to get URL link from email body using Azure Data Factory.

 

Thanks

    Hi manish verma,

    Thank you for posting query in Microsoft Q&A Platform.

    If I understand correctly, you get some link (URL) in the email body and want to make API call to that link from ADF. Please correct me if my understanding is wrong.

    You need to consider API call to get email body first and then try to take out only link(URL) from email body and then make API call for it again.

    Below is the documentation of graph APIs for email. Kindly explore it.

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/resources/mail-api-overview?view=graph-rest-1.0

    Once you get email body from API response, try to fetch only link from it by using some SQL capabilities or expressions in ADF which allow you to play with strings or by writing some azure function. Once you get link from email body, make another API call using web activity.

    Hope this helps. Please let me know if any further queries.
