Practical ways you can use Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft SharePoint
Create SharePoint folders for new contacts
When a new contact is added in Microsoft Outlook, Zapier automatically creates a folder in SharePoint with the contact's name. This helps business owners stay organized and maintain a dedicated space for client-related files, streamlining their document management.

Sync flagged emails to SharePoint lists
When a new email is flagged in Outlook, Zapier automatically creates a corresponding item in a specified SharePoint list. This ensures important emails are tracked and acted upon in a centralized and collaborative environment, improving response time and accountability.
ITUpdate calendar events based on SharePoint list changes
Whenever an existing item in a SharePoint list is updated, Zapier automatically updates the relevant calendar event in Outlook. This keeps project managers informed of task changes while maintaining clear timelines, reducing miscommunication and ensuring project deadlines stay on track.

Frequently Asked Questions about Microsoft Outlook + Microsoft SharePoint integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft SharePoint
How can I integrate Microsoft Outlook with SharePoint?
To connect Microsoft Outlook with SharePoint, you can use Power Automate to create automated workflows. By linking the two platforms, you can set up triggers like receiving an email in Outlook that automatically creates an item in a SharePoint list.
Can I automatically upload Outlook email attachments to SharePoint?
Yes, you can create a flow in Power Automate where each time you receive an email with an attachment in Outlook, the attachment is automatically uploaded to a specific folder in your SharePoint library.
Is it possible to sync calendar events between Outlook and SharePoint?
You can set up a synchronization process where new events created in an Outlook calendar trigger updates or new entries in a SharePoint calendar. This ensures that both calendars remain current and consistent.
How do we automatically update project tasks from Outlook emails in SharePoint?
By setting triggers on specific keywords or senders in incoming Outlook emails, we can automate task creation or updates directly into SharePoint project management lists, streamlining task management.
Can meeting notes from emails be stored directly into a SharePoint site?
Yes, using Power Automate, when meeting notes are sent as part of an email or as an attachment, they can be automatically stored into designated folders within your SharePoint site whenever the email arrives.
What happens if there’s a conflict between updates in my Outlook and my connected SharePoint?
We recommend setting up conflict resolution rules within your workflow. If modifications happen simultaneously on both ends, the system will decide based on predefined rules whether the latest change should override or if manual intervention is needed.
Is it necessary to manually start integration workflows between Outlook and SharePoint each time?
No manual intervention is required once you set up automated workflows. Triggers such as receiving certain kinds of emails or creating tasks will initiate the integration process without additional input.
