Saving an Email to SharePoint in New Outlook Version

Question

There are many times when I want to save an email to a particular file outside of Outlook. In the classic version, all I had to do was drag the email to the file on SharePoint and it was saved. How do I save an email to SharePoint in the new Outlook version?

Answer 1

The feature (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/roadmap?filters=&searchterms=380720) planned for March 2024 will probably solve this issue. Update April 2025
I am afraid it has not resolved the issue. It remains impossible to directly drag emails from new Outlook to SharePoint.

Hi @Sandy Hays ,

Welcome to our forum!

Based on my test, i cannot drag the email in New Outlook for Windows to SharePoint directly, i'm afraid that it is not available in New Outlook. To use this feature directly, please switch to Legacy Outlook.

As a workaround, we can try the below steps to save emails to SharePoint:

Open the email you want to save.

• Click on the three dots (usually located at the top right corner of the email).
• From the dropdown menu, select “Save”. This action will save the email as a document in your Downloads folder.
• Navigate to your Downloads folder in your Documents directory.
• Drag the saved email file (usually at the top of the list) into the SharePoint folder of your choice.

The features linked to Roadmaps mentioned by others have already been rolled out.
However, as others have written, they do not satisfy your requests.
And since the requested function is not listed in the latest Roadmap, it is highly likely that it is not being developed.
If necessary, please send feedback to request additional features.
