By Team ABSYZ inEmail Service, Salesforce

Use Case : Customer needs to import all emails along with attachment from their Gmail account into their Salesforce org.

Problem: Currently, there is no way to mass-import emails within the Salesforce User Interface

Resolution: We are going to export email into MBOX format.Then using python script we will generate CSV and using data loader we will insert email into Email Message object in salesforce.

Prerequisite:

1.Python 3.X should be installed in Local system.

2.Data loader.

Step 1:

 

  • Go to https://takeout.google.com/
  • Sign In to Gmail Account to extract Email.
  • Check Mail and select the labels to extract all the related Emails.

    Run the Python script using Terminal or IDLE.

  • we will get 2 CSV files ( emailMessage.csv, attachment.csv ) as output along with all the attachment files.
  • Message-Id column in  emailMessage.csv will act as unique id for each message.
  • If there is any attachment, we can find in  attachment.csv file. Each attachment will have message Id to signify this attachment belong to which email.

Point to Note :

In attachment.csv file, Body column prepend the current file path with file name(already present).

  • Insert emailMessage.csv using Data loader into salesforce.
  •  In success.csv file we can get Message-Id and corresponding Salesforce record Id.
  • In attachment.csv file get the parent id based on Message-Id using VLOOKUP.
