How this automation works

Create list items in Microsoft SharePoint from tagged Email messages. This Applet runs when you send an Email to IFTTT with the configured hashtag in the subject and adds a new item to the SharePoint list you choose. It’s useful for turning emailed requests, notes, or receipts into SharePoint records for teams using Email and Microsoft SharePoint.

Send IFTTT an email at trigger@applet.ifttt.com with a hashtag in the subject (e.g. #IFTTT) and this Trigger fires. You can optionally add a single file attachment (up to 30MB) and IFTTT will create a public URL to the file as an Ingredient.

About Microsoft SharePoint

SharePoint is Microsoft's content and collaboration platform for organizations. Teams use it to securely store, organize, and share files, build team sites and intranet portals, and manage documents and knowledge in one place. It works alongside the rest of Microsoft 365 — Teams, Word, Excel, and Copilot — so content stays connected to where people already work.
