Hi Everyone!
I am Andriana and I live in Greece!
I really need an urgent help tho!
I’ve been working on an automation that drafts auto-responses for incoming emails, but it should only apply to the CEO’s mailbox. My challenge is around the connection to Outlook: I want to avoid using or storing the CEO’s credentials directly for security reasons.
I see a few possible approaches:
Outlook Connector in Power Automate – Simple, but requires the CEO’s credentials (not secure).
Shared Mailbox – IT could set up a dedicated mailbox for this automation, but it would not be the CEO’s personal email.
Microsoft Graph API with Application Permissions – More secure and scalable. We can register an Azure AD app, grant Mail.ReadWrite only for the CEO’s mailbox, and connect the automation without requiring his credentials.
From my research, option 3 (Graph API with app permissions) seems like the most appropriate long-term solution, since it is secure, avoids credentials, and can be tightly scoped to only the CEO’s mailbox.
I coule really use some advise if I should move forward with this approach, or not. Also really need help on how to implement it.
I am really stressed about finding the best solution.
Thanks,
Andriana
