While you can fully customize your own workflows, we offer pre-configured actions such as adding new calendar events or sending emails directly through simple voice commands via Alexa.
Is it possible to send an email through Outlook using only voice commands?
Yes, by setting up a workflow where a specific Alexa command acts as a trigger, you can automate sending pre-defined emails from your connected Outlook account.
Can I manage my Outlook Calendar using Amazon Alexa?
