Search and mark an email as read

We use an example where we are going to search for an email from an individual's mailbox with required inputs and mark it as read.

In this example, our Pipeline activities are as follows:

  1. To search for an email from a mailbox using Search Email Snap.
  2. To mark the searched email as read using Mark Email As Read Snap.

Here, let us look into the role of Search Event Snap in this Pipeline.
