Automatically create account and contact - D365 App Outlook

Hello,

I configured the D365 outlook add-on on top of our Sales module and what I am trying to achieve is the below:

When a new customer sends us an email, I want this tool to create a contact or an account automatically in the system without doing those steps manually directly from outlook as below to fill in either Account or contact details:

In that way, when the contact/account is created automatically it will handle the tracking for the email messages and the other stuff if the account/contact exists in the system.

Will it be possible to automate it that way as OOB feature? Or should I proceed with a power automated cloud flow and customize it the way I want?

What is the configuration needed to make it work?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Best regards,
EBMRay

Hi,

It can only link to an existing record if already available based on Email address etc.

If no record found system will show as unresolved.

I think you will need to write power automate to automatically create new record if not resolved.

Hello Bipin Kumar,

I found in the official documentation and the below screenshot the below settings:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/outlook-addin/user-guide/set-option-automatically-track-incoming-outlook-email#automatically-track-email-messages

Do you think that will make it work or do I still need a Power automate flow that when an email arrives create a new account in dataverse? Or what do you mean if not resolved where I can find this data on which table?

Awaiting your response.
Best regards,
EBMRay

Hi,

You can try that setting to see if it works.
