Alert the team when the shared inbox reaches 1000 received emails.

I need to create an alert in Teams when the inbox of a generic (shared) email box reaches 1000 emails in quantity, regardless of the information. It's possible?

Hi @Dayaneps ,

Here's some framework for you to implement, works in testing.

Step #1 is you need to get the folder ID out of Get emails (V3) -- then you can keep the action in there (for testing) but you don't need it after you get the folder ID.

After you select your folder, go into "peek code".

Step #2:  Copy everything after Id:: to the last double quotes, even if it ends with ====="

If this says "Inbox" here, go back to the folder selection process, remove Inbox, and navigate to the folder - you need the folder ID, not the folder name and appears here in the new designer that will error out (also stay in classic for this flow).

Step #3:  Send an HTTP request action using a Microsoft Graph URI.  Paste in your folder ID copied into the following URL:

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/mailFolders/INSERTFOLDERIDHERE/messages?$select=sender,subject&top=1001

Step #4:  Add a compose and count the length.

length(body('Send_an_HTTP_request')?['value'])

Step #5.  Save and test.  Check your returned value.  Then add a quick conditional action and check if greater than 1000, send email.

Works in testing.

Hi @Dayaneps ,

 I forgot to mention, this example runs on a daily recurrence and checks once a day.  Also sends an email to someone but you can easily post a message in a chat as desired too.
