How to connect Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft SQL Server
Create a New Scenario to Connect Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft SQL Server
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Microsoft Outlook, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Microsoft Outlook or Microsoft SQL Server will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Microsoft Outlook or Microsoft SQL Server, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Microsoft Outlook Node
Select the Microsoft Outlook node from the app selection panel on the right.

Microsoft Outlook
Configure the Microsoft Outlook
Click on the Microsoft Outlook node to configure it. You can modify the Microsoft Outlook URL and choose between DEV and PROD versions. You can also copy it for use in further automations.
Add the Microsoft SQL Server Node
Next, click the plus (+) icon on the Microsoft Outlook node, select Microsoft SQL Server from the list of available apps, and choose the action you need from the list of nodes within Microsoft SQL Server.

Now, click the Microsoft SQL Server node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your Microsoft SQL Server settings. Authentication allows you to use Microsoft SQL Server through Latenode.
Configure the Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft SQL Server Nodes
Next, configure the nodes by filling in the required parameters according to your logic. Fields marked with a red asterisk (*) are mandatory.
Set Up the Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft SQL Server Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft SQL Server, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft SQL Server integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft SQL Server (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft SQL Server
Microsoft Outlook + Microsoft SQL Server + Microsoft Teams: When a new email arrives in Outlook, the flow extracts relevant information and inserts it as a new row into a SQL Server database. Then, a message is sent to a Microsoft Teams channel to notify the team about the new entry.
Microsoft SQL Server + Microsoft Outlook + Slack: When a new or updated row is detected in a SQL Server database, the flow sends an email to managers via Outlook and posts an alert to a designated Slack channel.
