How can I Have Zapier search old emails and look for information that I want?

We use Microsoft office 365 for email 

 


Hi ​@Clear Pro,

At the moment, Zaps are only built to look at new and incoming information, and won't process existing data. You can read a bit more about this here: https://zapier.com/help/create/basics/why-isnt-my-zap-triggering-on-existing-records

This means that data created before the Zap is turned on won't be pulled in automatically. 

That said, if you're able to export that data as a spreadsheet or CSV file, you may be able to "import" them using a separate Zap. This guide has some great visual references for getting that workaround set up: ​https://zapier.com/help/create/basics/bulk-import-data-into-zaps

Hopefully, this helps.
