How to connect Microsoft Outlook and WordPress.com
Create a New Scenario to Connect Microsoft Outlook and WordPress.com
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 WordPress.com will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Microsoft Outlook or WordPress.com, 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.

Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Microsoft Outlook and WordPress.com integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Microsoft Outlook and WordPress.com (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
