Hi Folks,
Hope everyone is fine and doing good. In this article of mine, I am going to narrate, how you can fetch Emails from your Microsoft Outlook account. I am only going to cover ‘Inbox‘ here. However, the scope of library (Gem) is very vast and you can customize this as per your need.
PREREQUISITE:
- Ruby
- ViewPoint Gem:
gem install viewpoint
For Debugging, I am using viewpoint/logging/config
| require 'rubygems' | |
| require 'viewpoint' # Library for MS Outlook | |
| require 'viewpoint/logging/config' # For Debugging | |
| include Viewpoint::EWS | |
| endpoint = 'YOUR MS EXACHANGE URL COMES HERE' # E.g. https://OUTLOOKSERVER_URL/ews/exchange.asmx | |
| user = 'USERNAME' | |
| pass = 'PASSWORD' | |
| cli = Viewpoint::EWSClient.new endpoint, user, pass | |
| folders = cli.folders | |
| p folders[0].inspect | |
| inbox = cli.get_folder_by_name 'Inbox' | |
| items = inbox.items | |
| p items[0].body.inspect | |
| p items.count |
Hope this helps someone! Keep in touch and Happy Coding 🙂
