OutlookScope

The “Outlook Scope” activity acts as centralized authentication for an Outlook account. It defines the boundaries within which specific activities, such as reading, writing, sending, or managing emails and folders, can be executed. Users need to select the required “Outlook” account within this scope for authentication and access, eliminating the need for separate authentication steps for each interaction involving Outlook activities.
