Build your Microsoft 365 Email (Outlook) and Perplexity AI integrations.
Perplexity AI functions as a trigger by automatically detecting incoming emails and initiating workflows when specific email events occur. When an email arrives in your Outlook inbox, it triggers the automation process that routes the email content to Microsoft 365 Email (Outlook). Microsoft 365 Email (Outlook) then functions as an action by processing the email information to perform tasks such as instant analysis, content summarization, or research assistance based on the email data received from the trigger. This trigger-action integration enables automatic processing of incoming emails from Perplexity AI through Microsoft 365 Email (Outlook)'s intelligent capabilities, with the enriched responses generated as output from the action step.

How to setup Microsoft 365 Email (Outlook) and Perplexity AI in 5 easy steps
Log in to Make and add your app
Sign into your Make account and add the application module you want to connect, such as Microsoft 365 Email or Perplexity AI, to your automation workflow. This module represents the app you'll be connecting and acts as the building block for your automation.
Start creating your connection
Click the 'Create a Connection' button that appears after adding your app module. This begins the process of linking Make with your chosen application so they can communicate and share information with each other.
Name your connection
Give your connection a custom name to help you remember its purpose later. This optional step is particularly useful when you're managing multiple connections, as it keeps everything organized and helps you identify them at a glance.
Authenticate your application
Depending on your app, you'll either need to log in directly and grant Make permission to access your account (like with Microsoft 365 Email), or obtain and enter an API key from your application's settings (like with Perplexity AI). This step ensures secure authorization between Make and your application.
Save and start building
Click the Save button to finalize your connection and store all the settings. Once the connection is successfully established, you can begin adding more modules and building your automation with data flowing between Make and your connected application.

FAQ
By integrating Perplexity AI with Microsoft 365 Email through Make, you can automatically enrich your emails with AI-powered research and insights. For example, when you receive emails with questions or topics requiring research, Make can trigger Perplexity AI to gather relevant information and automatically send comprehensive responses via Outlook. This saves hours of manual research time and ensures your email replies are always well-informed and accurate.
Make enables powerful automation scenarios such as: automatically researching topics mentioned in incoming emails and sending summaries to your team, creating AI-generated briefings from email threads and storing them in your inbox, monitoring specific email labels or folders and using Perplexity AI to compile weekly research reports, and generating intelligent responses to customer inquiries by combining Perplexity's knowledge discovery with Outlook's email capabilities. These automations run 24/7 without manual intervention.
No coding skills are required. Make provides a visual, drag-and-drop interface that allows you to connect Microsoft 365 Email and Perplexity AI with point-and-click actions. You can set up triggers (like receiving a new email), actions (like querying Perplexity AI), and responses (like sending an email with the results) all through an intuitive visual builder. Make offers pre-built templates and modules specifically designed for both applications, making integration accessible to users of all technical levels.
Make employs enterprise-grade security measures including encrypted connections, OAuth 2.0 authentication for Microsoft 365, and secure API integrations. You maintain full control over what data is shared between applications, and you can configure specific triggers and filters to ensure only relevant information is processed. Make is compliant with major security standards and only transfers the data you explicitly configure in your automation workflows, ensuring your sensitive email content remains protected throughout the integration process.
A scenario represents a workflow or a project of your own creation, and it is made up of a series of modules that automate apps and services. Creating a scenario allows you to transfer and transform data between apps and services via these modules to automate anything and improve the way you work.
Modules are the main building blocks of automation in Make. Modules represent actions that Make performs with an app, like creating, updating, or deleting data.
How it works
Traditional no-code iPaaS platforms are linear and non-intuitive. Make allows you to visually create, build, and automate without limits.
