Outlook Skill
Access Outlook/Hotmail email and calendar via Microsoft Graph API using OAuth2.
Quick Setup (Automated)
# Requires: Azure CLI, jq
./scripts/outlook-setup.sh
The setup script will:
- Log you into Azure (device code flow)
- Create an App Registration automatically
- Configure API permissions (Mail.ReadWrite, Mail.Send, Calendars.ReadWrite)
- Guide you through authorization
- Save credentials to
~/.outlook-mcp/
Manual Setup
See references/setup.md for step-by-step manual configuration via Azure Portal.
Multiple Accounts
You can connect multiple Outlook accounts (personal, work, etc.):
Setup additional accounts
./scripts/outlook-setup.sh --account work
./scripts/outlook-setup.sh --account personal
Use specific account
./scripts/outlook-mail.sh --account work inbox
./scripts/outlook-calendar.sh --account personal today
./scripts/outlook-token.sh --account work refresh
Or use environment variable
export OUTLOOK_ACCOUNT=work
./scripts/outlook-mail.sh inbox
List configured accounts
./scripts/outlook-token.sh list
Credentials are stored separately:
~/.outlook-mcp/
default/
config.json
credentials.json
work/
config.json
credentials.json
Existing single-account setups are auto-migrated to default.

Token Refresh
Access tokens expire after ~1 hour. Refresh with:
./scripts/outlook-token.sh refresh
Files
~/.outlook-mcp/config.json- Client ID and secret~/.outlook-mcp/credentials.json- OAuth tokens (access + refresh)
Permissions
Mail.ReadWrite- Read and modify emailsMail.Send- Send emailsCalendars.ReadWrite- Read and modify calendar eventsoffline_access- Refresh tokens (stay logged in)User.Read- Basic profile info
Notes
- Email IDs: The
idfield shows the last 20 characters of the full message ID. Use this ID with commands likeread,mark-read,delete, etc. - Numbered results: Emails are numbered (n: 1, 2, 3...) for easy reference in conversation.
- Text extraction: HTML email bodies are automatically converted to plain text.
- Token expiry: Access tokens expire after ~1 hour. Run
outlook-token.sh refreshwhen you see auth errors. - Recent emails: Commands like
read,mark-read, etc. search the 100 most recent emails for the ID.
Troubleshooting
"Token expired" → Run outlook-token.sh refresh
"Invalid grant" → Token invalid, re-run setup: outlook-setup.sh
"Insufficient privileges" → Check app permissions in Azure Portal → API Permissions
"Message not found" → The email may be older than 100 messages. Use search to find it first.
"Folder not found" → Use exact folder name. Run folders to see available folders.
Supported Accounts
- Personal Microsoft accounts (outlook.com, hotmail.com, live.com)
- Work/School accounts (Microsoft 365) - may require admin consent
Security Considerations
- Azure App Registration: The automated setup creates an App Registration in your Azure tenant with the following permissions:
Mail.ReadWrite,Mail.Send,Calendars.ReadWrite,offline_access,User.Read - Local credential storage: Client ID, client secret, and OAuth tokens are stored in
~/.outlook-mcp/withchmod 600 - Token printing:
outlook-token.sh get --confirmprints access tokens (requires explicit confirmation flag) - Prerequisites: Requires Azure CLI (
az) andjq
If you prefer not to use automated setup, follow the manual configuration in references/setup.md.
