Tableau Connector for Email

MailMessages

List, search, delete, and move IMAP messages. List and delete POP messages. And send messages with SMTP.

This schema is defined for all tables. Each table name will be a mailbox folder on the server.

Table Specific Information

You can use square brackets to escape the table names of mailbox folders.

Protocol Information

For more specifics on using this table with IMAP, POP, and SMTP, refer to Supported Mail Protocols.

Deprecation notice for Gmail users

From May 30, 2022, Google no longer supports the use of third-party apps or devices which ask you to sign in to your Google Account using only your username and password. There are alternatives that allow your continued use of our Email drivers to connect to your Google account, which is why Gmail-specific columns, pseudo-columns, and stored procedures are only getting deprecated. We recommend you move to our Gmail drivers that offer more secure methods of authentication.
