1200 views 2 Updated on July 26, 2022

Here you can find a step by step description for how to set up an email content service for AttachmentExtractor. You can easily get the Add-On from the Marketplace in Dynamics 365 (navigate to Settings > Solutions and then to the [Get solutions from Marketplace] – button) or from AppSource.   

Open the service Configuration 

Once installed, you will be asked to visit the “AttachmentExtractor Getting Started” – page. Please enter the user credentials you have registered on our website and hit the [Continue]-button in order to proceed. In case you are not registered on our website, please enter your email address below and a user account will be automatically created for you. 

Alternatively, you can directly start the deployment via service configuration:

Step 9: The “Shared Access Signature” – field and the “Only extract attachments older than”–field (highlighted in yellow) are mandatory fields.

The Shared Access Signature (SAS) can be created with the Microsoft Azure Storage Explorer AttachmentExtractor requires read/add/create/write/delete access on the container. Please take a note of the set token expiration time for a timely refresh, when required. More information about how to get the SAS for a blob container can be found in the corresponding Microsoft documentation.
