Hello,

Is there a way in Excel to open OWA (Outlook Web App) and create an email?

I see it can be done in Outlook, but OWA?

Kind regards,

TimC

Hi Tim,

I haven't done this myself but you can do this

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/rest/get-started

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/office/office-365-api/api/version-2.0/mail-rest-operations

It does not appear to be a trivial process.

Regards

Phil

Thanks for getting back to me, Phil.

The articles you refer to are rather technical for me, but they look like they refer to Outlook rather than OWA(?)

Hi Tim,

The articles are referring to Outlook on Office 365.  I assume that's what you are after?

Yes unfortunately to get Excel to connect and do anything with OWA will require a great deal of programming.

Regards

Phil
