Question
Pega Email Listener is not able to read Outlook Form content
We have predefined Outlook Forms available for users to submit requests from Outlook. Once the form is sent to the mailbox, we need the Email Listener to read the email content, create Case and populate the data on the Case.
By default Pega Email Wizard creates Service Email Rule with mappings for predefined fields like “To”, “From”, “Subject”, “Body” etc.. When listener is reading the email and creating a Case, its able to map From / To / Subject / Body etc but the issue is, the Outlook Form fields are NOT part of the email body and those are defined as separate individual fields. Because the content of the form is not part of email Body or any other predefined fields, Listener is not able to read the content.
Has anyone come across similar requirement and know how to enable Email Listener to be able to read Outlook Form fields and map to the Clipboard?
Assuming the data you want is another field in the header of the email, you should be able to customize the Service Email rule to map specific fields that you want to capture by adding them on the Request tab. I did a quick look for an article that talks about this, but wasn't able to find one. There is a support article that vaguely discusses this: https://pdn.pega.com/support-articles/unable-retrieve-custom-header-when-mapped-service-email
