How this automation works

Send an Outlook email automatically when you activate a custom Google Assistant scene. This runs whenever you say "Ok Google, activate [Scene Name]" and sends a message through your Outlook account. Perfect for quickly sending reminders or notifications hands-free using Google Assistant and Outlook. Customize the message to fit your tone.
