Step 1: Setup your Parseur mailbox and templates
Before you can use this integration, sign up for a Microsoft Flow account, and create your account on Parseur. Unlike other email parsers, Parseur is a visual template-based tool which means that no parsing rules need to be created for data extraction. With zero coding knowledge, you can use Parseur and its in-built library of automated templates specialized for various industries such as Mortgage Leads, Real Estate, or Job Search, among others.
Parseur is Point & Click!
Having a powerful email parsing tool can help you automate your business processes, saving you countless hours of work.
We’ll take the example where you want to extract data from your emails in Microsoft Outlook and send those parsed data to Microsoft Flow. Follow our guide on how to teach Parseur on which specific data need to be extracted from your Outlook emails.

Highlight and create data fields
Step 2: Send data extracted by Parseur to Microsoft Flow
Once your template has been created based on the data extraction process, you can export the parsed email data to Microsoft Flow. Click on “export” and “MS Flow”

Click on Microsoft Flow in the export screen
If you do not have a configured flow yet, Parseur will prompt you to create a flow. You will be redirected to your Microsoft Flow account.
Since this is your first flow, click on “My flows” > New > Automated - from blank

Click on Automated - from blank
Give the Flow a name and choose the trigger by typing “Parseur” in the search box

Select Parseur as the trigger application
You will need to link to your Parseur account if this is your first flow. You can find the API key in your Parseur account.

Connect Parseur with MS Flow
Once your Parseur account is connected, you can then choose your Parseur mailbox; the one where you will export parsed data to MS Flow.
