Connect

Confirm that it appears under Connected, then ask the agent to retrieve one item you can verify.

​
Things to try

  • “Find the email from legal about the DPA.”
  • “Draft a reply confirming the Thursday slot.”
  • “Move these reviewed messages into the project folder.”
For outbound mail, ask for a draft when you want to review wording and recipients in Outlook. Other outbound tools depend on the agent configuration; creating a draft doesn’t send it. See Connector access and troubleshooting if an item or action is unavailable.
