Microsoft Outlook Trigger

Use the Microsoft Outlook Trigger node to respond to events in Microsoft Outlook and integrate Microsoft Outlook with other applications.

On this page, you'll find a list of events the Microsoft Outlook Trigger node can respond to, and links to more resources.

Credentials

This node's Authentication dropdown offers three options:

• Outlook OAuth2: the Microsoft Outlook-specific OAuth2 credential (default).

• Microsoft OAuth2 (Graph): a generic Microsoft Graph credential that you can reuse across other Microsoft nodes. When you select this option, make sure you grant the credential the scopes this node needs (for example, Mail.ReadWrite).

• Microsoft Entra Service Principal (App-Only): app-only access through a Microsoft Entra app registration, with no signed-in user. Refer to Microsoft Entra Service Principal credentials for setup and required application permissions.

You can find authentication information for this node here.

Government Cloud Support

If you're using a government cloud tenant (US Government, US Government DOD, or China), make sure to select the appropriate Microsoft Graph API Base URL in your Microsoft credentials configuration.
