Please make sure you provide the full name of the file (with the extension and all, for example myEmailFile.msg) as a separate parameter, and the folder as another one (ex: D:\myEmailsFolder\NewOnes). It should be able to read the content. If not, can you please provide the parameters values?

Thank you!

Hi Parag,

You need to install the proper version of the activity, based on your Studio version. If you have an onlder version of Studio, please make sure you install the 1.0.1 version of the package. If you are using the newest Studio (22.10 or above), please install the 2.0.0.4 version.

Thank you!

Hi,

Im getting the following error when using this activity to convert an .eml file to PDF:

System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {000209FF-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} failed due to the following error: 80070005 Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED)). at UiPathTeam.MailActivities.ReadSavedEmailToPDF.SaveAsPDF(String iniFilePath, String pdfFilePath) at UiPathTeam.MailActivities.ReadSavedEmailToPDF.Execute(CodeActivityContext context) at System.Activities.CodeActivity.InternalExecute(ActivityInstance instance, ActivityExecutor executor, BookmarkManager bookmarkManager) at System.Activities.ActivityInstance.Execute(ActivityExecutor executor, BookmarkManager bookmarkManager) at System.Activities.Runtime.ActivityExecutor.ExecuteActivityWorkItem.ExecuteBody(ActivityExecutor executor, BookmarkManager bookmarkManager, Location resultLocation)

Im running an unattended robot on Windows Server 2019 with Office 365 (Outlook and MS Word avaiable)

I have ensured the correct permissions have been set after following multiple articles about this error.

e.g. http://woshub.com/dcom-event-10016-fix-app-specific-permission/

Doesnt seem to have made any difference.

Hi Mina,

Unfortunately, the issue is from the permisions that your robot has, for accessing the mail file or the folder where is stored. Please include the robot account in the group that has access to that file/folder, or make the folder with general access for everyone. Please keep in mind that you also need to create some files, so the permisions must allow that as well.

Thank you for this activity! It's very useful! It looks like the Received on is being parsed incorrectly on the PDF. All of my PDF files that the activity creates show "Received: 1899/12/30 00:00:00". Can the parsing be updated?

Hi David,

The newest version, which is compatible with the Studio 2022.10+, should fix that date.

Thank you

Hi Thoesten,

The newest version, which is compatible with the Studio 2022.10+, should fix that field.

Hello Catalin

Unfortunately I have problems with German umlauts (öäü...) which are not always converted cleanly. Especially then the rest of the text is cut off (ausfüllen -> ausfC).

Could it be that the PDF converter has problems with utf-8, especially with formatted text (e.g. italic)?

Thanks Beni

Hello Benjamin,

The activity does a double translation from email body content to html, and from html to pdf.

For the format, I use the default for

Document.ExportAsFixedFormat

(

DestFile.FullName,

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.WdExportFormat.wdExportFormatPDF

);
