Move all action

The Move all action in the Email package enables you to move all emails from one folder to another in the email server.

Settings

  • In the Session name field, enter the name of the session that you used to connect to the email server in the Connect action.
  • In the Destination folder path in mailbox field, provide the path to the location where you want to move the email.
  • Select which emails to move: All, Read, or Unread
  • In the From a specific folder field, specify the folder from which to move the emails. For example, Inbox/project1.
    Note: For an email server using the POP3 protocol, you can retrieve emails only from the inbox.
  • Optional: Specify any of the following conditions:
    • When subject contains: Enter keywords separated by semicolons.

      How subject filter works when moving emails

      Note: The When subject contains field is case sensitive. If you have established a connection with the EWS server and when you enter text inside a pair of double quotation marks ("") in the When subject contains field, the bot retrieves all the email messages whose subject exactly matches the text and the case that you entered inside a pair of double quotation marks.
    • From specific senders: Enter senders' email addresses separated by semicolons.
    • When received date is on or after or When received date is before: Select a datetime variable from the list.
    Note: Because folders are not supported in Gmail, this action is not supported for Gmail.
Note: You cannot use the Move all action within a loop. The Move all action is designed to be used with conditions outside a loop.
